Description

When someone creates a PR from a fork, the CI does not have permission to add commits to the branch.

To my knowledge, the only real way to solve this is to develop a github application.

For now, it is easiest to add someone who makes a PR to this repo and ask them to push to a local branch.

Research direction

No specific files or tests are named. Start by inspecting the repository's CI configuration and reproducing a notebook-runner workflow from a fork; done means fork pull requests can run the required CI and add commits without manually asking the contributor to push to a local branch.
