Description

Right now to apply the changes, we use a classic PAT.
We want to create a GitHub app with write permissions and install it on all orgs.

Question to be confirmed:

  • is it possible to install a GitHub app with write permissions for all repositories?
  • can we use merge-bots with a GitHub app? The read only github app can't read actors that are allowed to push. e.g.:

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by verifying whether a GitHub App can be installed with write permissions across all repositories and whether merge-bots can use it to read permitted actors. Done means documenting confirmed answers and an agreed implementation path.
