We can use the automatically generated GITHUB_TOKEN instead of needing to generate a Personal Access Token. The key is to enable write permission for contents in the workflow file.

Looks like the difference is that using the GITHUB_TOKEN to push to a repo will not trigger subsequent action. Using the PAT will trigger them. See https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/25702#discussioncomment-3248819. |

You don't need to use a Personal Access Token anymore.
