fix(ci): use BOT_PR_TOKEN for collect-lime-results PR flow - #86
Merged
Conversation
The org disables "write" workflow permissions, so the default GITHUB_TOKEN cannot open PRs or call gh pr merge --auto. Use the BOT_PR_TOKEN PAT (Contents + Pull Requests: write on this repo) for the PR-creating and merging steps. Checkout keeps GITHUB_TOKEN because it only needs to read the working tree.

Summary
Swap the default `GITHUB_TOKEN` for the new `BOT_PR_TOKEN` PAT on the steps that create and auto-merge the bot PR. Checkout keeps `GITHUB_TOKEN`.
Why
The org has "Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve pull requests" disabled, so `GITHUB_TOKEN` cannot open PRs or call `gh pr merge --auto`. We can't toggle that at the repo level. `BOT_PR_TOKEN` is a user PAT with Contents + Pull Requests: write on this repo only.
