Update Script Maintenance Report

Date: 2026-03-03

Ran scraper successfully (python scraper.py) and refreshed DAC/CRS source/data files.
Updated workflow token usage to ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} in .github/workflows/scrape.yml.
Added explicit workflow permissions:
- contents: write
- pull-requests: write
This removes dependency on a custom TOKEN secret and improves automation reliability.
