  • Root cause: automation used broad triggers and had no explicit workflow write permissions.
  • Fixes made: narrowed workflow to schedule + manual dispatch, upgraded action versions, added permissions: contents: write, and preserved commit paths for generated files.

  • Known blockers: none identified in this remediation pass.
