Summary

  • Adds app_id input and app_private_key secret to release.yml and changelog-release.yml
  • When provided, generates a short-lived token via actions/create-github-app-token@v3 to bypass branch protection rules on main
  • Falls back to GITHUB_TOKEN when not set — fully backwards compatible

Usage

uses: nullplatform/actions-nullplatform/.github/workflows/changelog-release.yml@main
with:
  app_id: ${{ secrets.APP_RELEASE_ID }}
secrets:
  app_private_key: ${{ secrets.APP_RELEASE_PRIVATE_KEY }}

Changes

Workflow Token injection points
release.yml release-please-action, checkout in update-readme-versions
changelog-release.yml checkout, GH_TOKEN for gh release create

Adds app_id input and app_private_key secret to both release.yml and
changelog-release.yml. When provided, a short-lived token is generated
via actions/create-github-app-token@v3 to bypass branch protection rules
on main. Falls back to GITHUB_TOKEN when not set.
