Update Script Maintenance Report

Date: 2026-03-03

Executed update pipeline (make data) to verify script path.
Fixed GitHub Actions commit target in .github/workflows/actions.yml from wrong file path to data/*.csv.
Added workflow token write permission (permissions: contents: write).
This change restores automatic commit behavior for generated temperature files.
