what

  • Remove "Confirm Root Account Name" step that referenced a non-existent star icon in AWS console
  • Add detailed instructions for updating the static account map in stacks/orgs/acme/_defaults.yaml
  • Clarify that root_account_account_name should always be core-root internally, even if the actual AWS account has a different display name
  • Move root account verification guidance to the account ID update step using current AWS console language ("Management account" label)

why

Addresses customer feedback about outdated and misleading UI references in the account setup documentation. The "star" icon mentioned in the original step no longer exists in the current AWS console. This change removes the confusion and provides clearer, more actionable guidance for users setting up account configuration.

The REPO_ACCESS_TOKEN PAT was hitting GitHub API rate limits, causing
release asset downloads to fail with HTTP 403 errors. The GITHUB_TOKEN
has separate per-workflow rate limits that won't be exhausted by other
workflows.

Use github.token directly in the composite action instead of the PAT.
This works because composite actions have access to the github context.
