The
welcome-new-usersworkflow was failing withHttpError: Resource not accessible by integrationon PRs opened from forks. Thepull_requestevent runs workflows with a read-only token for fork PRs regardless of declared permissions.Changes
pull_requesttrigger withpull_request_targetso the workflow runs in the base repo context and receives the write-scoped token needed to post comments and reactionsif:conditions inwelcome-pr-openedandwelcome-pr-mergedjobs to matchgithub.event_name == 'pull_request_target'This workflow never checks out PR code, so
pull_request_targetis safe to use here.Related issue(s)
