📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The workflow for handling pull request test commands was updated to authenticate using a GitHub App token instead of a static personal access token. The job names and outputs were adjusted accordingly, and the dynamic token is now used for posting check statuses in place of the previous static secret.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
.github/workflows/test-pr-command.yml Renamed job, added GitHub App authentication step, exposed token as output, and switched check status token usage
