fix: run project auto-assign via pull_request_target#615
Merged
Conversation
Dependabot-opened PRs run pull_request workflows without repository secrets, so PROJECT_TOKEN was empty and add-to-project failed on every Dependabot PR. pull_request_target runs in base-repo context with secrets; safe here since the workflow never checks out PR code. Closes #614

The "Automation: Auto-assign to Project" workflow failed on every Dependabot PR (#611, #612, #613) because
pull_requestworkflows triggered by Dependabot only receive Dependabot secrets —secrets.PROJECT_TOKENwas empty and the add-to-project step errored.Switching the trigger to
pull_request_targetruns the job in base-repo context where repository secrets are available. This is safe for this workflow: it never checks out or executes PR code, it only touches PR metadata (project board, assignee, milestone).Closes #614
