Description

On a forked repo the secret is not available. figure out a way to have this workflow run. Test should have already been done in the scratchpad, however they weren't. this was the purpose of https://github.com/nofusscomputing/scratchpad/pull/8

  • ❓ Can the git job token be used??

Error: Input required and not supplied: github-token

Debugging

Proposed Solution 1

Split workflow into two parts. Triage runs in the context of the issue/PR and on completion triggers (workflow_run) the actual workflow which should run in the context of the repo. Idea is the same as this action

for this to work the details of what was triaged will be required to be passed to triggered workflow.
