Overview ¶
Package token builds the GitHub clients ar2 uses beside the ordinary one.
Both are GitHub App installation tokens, and both exist because of something the repository's own GITHUB_TOKEN can't do. Neither is required: without them the ordinary client is used, which is what a local run does and what works in a repository with no rulesets.

Constants ¶
const PREnv = "AR2_PR_TOKEN"
PREnv holds the token that commits to the head branches and opens the pull requests.
A pull request opened or updated with GITHUB_TOKEN gets its workflow runs in an approval-required state, so nothing checks it until a person presses a button. A registry that opens pull requests on a schedule would need someone for every one of them, and auto-merge would never fire. A GitHub App installation token doesn't carry that restriction.
The app is not a bypass actor for anything: it opens pull requests and that is all, so the checks still decide what merges.
