For a set of Pulumiverse providers I maintain, I activated pulumi/ci-mgmt to keep the workflows up to date via automation. I'm using a Github Personal Access Token (PAT) to allow some workflows to create branches, push commits to it and create a linked pull request.

Working via a PAT is that any action is taking as if it was me. The downside of this is that I don't get any Github notifications for things I do "myself". Due to that, I missed that the Grafana provider couldn't be upgraded automatically:

pulumiverse/pulumi-grafana#240
pulumiverse/pulumi-grafana#242

Would it be possible to set up a separate "bot" user for such automation purposes? If the bot user performs these actions, and I assign myself as issue & PR assignee, then I will receive proper notifications on Github.
