Additional context
I've openned an issue regarding the documentation https://github.com/codecov/feedback/issues/750

All coverage reports process and archive correctly, but Codecov never finds the bot to post PR comments or notifications. Logs show get_github_app_info_for_owner() succeeds but get_repo_appropriate_bot_token() fails.

I’ve already uninstalled and reinstalled the Docker container and GitHub App, and even logged out and back in, but the issue still persists.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the logs around get_github_app_info_for_owner() and get_repo_appropriate_bot_token(), using the GitHub App and Docker setup described in the issue. Confirm that coverage reports still process while PR comments fail, then identify why the bot token is unavailable and verify that a GitHub PR receives the expected comment.
