Pull request overview
This PR updates the release-please workflow to use WORKFLOW_PUSH_BOT_TOKEN instead of GITHUB_TOKEN, ensuring that CI workflows are triggered on auto-created release PRs. This follows the same approach used in the ESLint CSS repository and addresses an issue where release PRs were being created without running CI checks.
Key Changes:
- Switched authentication token from
GITHUB_TOKENtoWORKFLOW_PUSH_BOT_TOKENfor the release-please action - Removed the
permissionsblock from the workflow
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.

Prerequisites checklist
What is the purpose of this pull request?
This PR follows up on eslint/css#330.
In this PR, I've ensured the auto-created
release-pleaseaction triggers CI.Problem
Currently, the auto-created PR from the
release-pleaseaction does not trigger CI, as shown below:#336
This can result in CI not running and may lead to issues like #308 if the check is missing.
Solution
I've used
secrets.WORKFLOW_PUSH_BOT_TOKENinstead of the defaultsecrets.GITHUB_TOKEN, following the same approach described in eslint/css#330.Also, the
permissionsforcontentsandpull-requestsare no longer necessary becausesecrets.WORKFLOW_PUSH_BOT_TOKENalready grants the required permissions, so I removed it.FYI: the
tokeninput reference: https://github.com/googleapis/release-please-action?tab=readme-ov-file#action-inputsTest
I've tested it in my forked repository, and it works as expected:
