fix: automate release PR approval, merge, and CI trigger#21
Merged
Conversation
- Add labeled trigger to ci.yml so CI runs when autorelease: pending label is added to a PR (fixes CI not running on GITHUB_TOKEN PRs) - Add auto-approve + auto-merge step to release-please workflow using RELEASE_PLEASE_TOKEN; since the PR author is github-actions[bot], kellenmurphy can approve via PAT without triggering self-review block

Summary
Fixes the release-please workflow so release PRs are fully hands-off.
Root cause: When
GITHUB_TOKENcreates a PR, GitHub suppressespull_requestworkflow events on it (loop prevention). This means CI never runs, the required status check stays pending, and the PR is unmergeable.Changes:
ci.yml— addslabeledto thepull_requesttrigger types. When release-please adds theautorelease: pendinglabel to its PR, CI now fires.release-please.yml— after creating/updating the release PR, usesRELEASE_PLEASE_TOKEN(PAT as kellenmurphy) to approve and enable auto-merge. The PR author isgithub-actions[bot], so this isn't self-review.Result: On every merge to main, release-please opens/updates a release PR → CI runs → PR is auto-approved and set to auto-merge → once CI passes, it merges automatically.
