🟢 Good taste - Clean security improvement.
[RISK ASSESSMENT]
- [Overall PR]
⚠️ Risk Assessment: 🟢 LOW
This is a straightforward security improvement that reduces blast radius by replacing a broad-scope shared token with a fine-grained PAT scoped only to public repos. The change is minimal, clear, and fail-safe: if the new secret is misconfigured, the workflow will fail rather than cause damage.
VERDICT:
✅ Worth merging: Simple configuration change that improves security posture.
KEY INSIGHT:
Textbook example of least-privilege principle applied to automation credentials.
