Description
Currently there is no GitHub API to create a new comment 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.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by inspecting the Python repository's bot entry points and evaluating the proposed Playwright UI automation against draft and triage GHSA comment flows. Done means the bot can create a comment in both stated advisory states.
