Dependabot-triggered workflow runs don't receive repository secrets, so the create-github-app-token step fails with an empty private-key before the parity check can run — every dependabot PR fails this required-looking check. Dependency bumps can't change scenario parity, so skip the job.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
nit: Fork PRs also run without repository secrets, so scenario-parity still fails on them. (not blocking)
Widen the condition to cover forks:
Suggested change
| if: github.actor != 'dependabot[bot]' | |
| if: github.actor != 'dependabot[bot]' && github.event.pull_request.head.repo.fork != true |
On push events github.event.pull_request is null, so the added clause stays true there. The integration job comment at line 85 already records that fork PRs get no secrets.

Dependabot-triggered runs don't get repository secrets, so the
create-github-app-tokenstep inscenario-parityfails ("The 'private-key' input must be set") on every dependabot PR — this is why #163, #164, #165, and #182 are stuck. Dependency bumps can't affect scenario parity, so skip the job for the dependabot actor.Note: sdk-rust has the same pattern in its workflow and will hit the same issue on its next dependabot PR.
