Description

### Description

# Description
Currentlty, several files in the repository (e.g., `./README.md`, `./modules/README.md`) and others in the docs are maintained automatically using an automated pipeline.

The challenge: In order to update these files following a pull request, the operating principal must have permissions to push to main. This is, in general, not ideal as this means at least one user must have permissions to bypass the default branching policies.

To this end, we should consider implementing an alternative solution that uses for example self-approved pull requests instead.

# Acceptance criteria

A more secure solution that is not dependent on PAT tokens is implemented and operational.
