Use a PAT to create the release, not the default GITHUB_TOKEN - #24
Merged
Conversation
Adds .github/workflows/auto-release.yml: after the Python Test workflow succeeds for a push to main, it reads the version from pyproject.toml and, if that version hasn't been released yet, creates a `vX.Y.Z` tag and GitHub Release for that commit. Publishing a Release is exactly what python-publish.yml already listens for, so merging a PR that bumps the version now publishes to PyPI with no separate manual "cut a release" step.

GitHub Actions doesn't fire other workflows' triggers (release: published included) for events performed with the automatic GITHUB_TOKEN, to prevent recursive workflow runs. Without this fix, auto-release.yml would successfully tag and "release" a version but python-publish.yml would silently never run, so nothing would actually reach PyPI. Switches the release-creation step to a RELEASE_TOKEN repo secret (a PAT), with a clear failure if it isn't set, and documents the one-time setup in the README.
