# --repo is required here: this job never checks out the repo (it only downloads
# build artifacts from earlier jobs), so gh has no local git context to
# auto-detect the target repository from - confirmed by the first real run of
# this workflow (tag v0.6.2) failing with "failed to run git: fatal: not a git
# repository (or any of the parent directories): .git" on exactly this step.
# $GITHUB_REPOSITORY (a built-in Actions env var, "owner/repo") sidesteps that
# without needing an actions/checkout step just for this. Same class of mistake
# this repo's own CLAUDE.md already warns about for `gh pr create` run without
# --repo/--base - explicit is required, not optional, for any `gh` invocation
# that can't infer its target from a real git working directory.
