Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository structure and the GitHub Security Advisory workflow, then investigate whether Playwright can retrieve comments from draft and triage GHSAs. Done means the bot has a usable way to obtain GHSA comment lists for responding to those comments.

Description

Currently there is no GitHub API to get comments on a GitHub Security Advisory (GHSA) in draft or triage state. A "polyfill" for this API is needed to create a bot that can respond to comments within a GHSA (a-la Bedevere in PRs).

This would likely need to be implemented using a UI automation tool like Playwright.
