fix(ci): use TAGBOT_PAT so TagBot-created tags trigger workflows#31
Merged
Conversation
The default GITHUB_TOKEN used by TagBot creates tags via the GitHub REST API, but GitHub deliberately does not propagate events from GITHUB_TOKEN to other workflows (anti-recursion). As a result, the Documentation workflow has not run on any tag since v0.9.0 (v0.11.x, v0.12.0, v0.14.0 were all silently skipped), leaving /stable/ frozen on v0.9.0-era content. Switching to a fine-grained PAT (Contents: write, Issues/PRs: read) restores the expected behavior: TagBot pushes the tag with the PAT, GitHub fires the tag-push event, and the Documentation workflow publishes per-version docs and advances the "stable" symlink. The TAGBOT_PAT secret must be set in repo settings before the next TagBot run.

Summary
GITHUB_TOKEN. Per GitHub Actions anti-recursion policy, events created withGITHUB_TOKENdo not trigger other workflows — so the Documentation workflow has not fired on any tag sincev0.9.0. Result:https://s-celles.github.io/Giac.jl/stable/is frozen on v0.9.0-era content (still mentionsTempApi), and there are no per-version docs forv0.11.x,v0.12.0,v0.14.0.TAGBOT_PAT) — events from a PAT propagate normally, so the next tag push will trigger Documentation and CI.Prerequisite
