Summary

  • Use actions/create-github-app-token to generate an app token for release-please
  • App token pushes trigger workflow events (unlike GITHUB_TOKEN), so CI runs on release-please PRs
  • No PAT needed — tokens auto-expire and commits are attributed to the app, not a person

Test plan

  • Merge and verify next release-please PR gets CI checks

GITHUB_TOKEN pushes don't trigger workflow events, so CI never runs on
release-please PRs. Use a GitHub App token instead, which does trigger
events and avoids PAT downsides (personal attribution, manual rotation).
