Adds .github/workflows/dependabot-autofix.yml that runs weekly (and on workflow_dispatch) to invoke the fix-dependabot-alerts skill via GitHub Copilot CLI, apply fixes, run build + tests, and open a single consolidated PR. Auth model matches existing workflows: - GitHub App (app-id 2740120, POWER_PAGES_PUBLIC_GITHUB_APP_PRIVATE_KEY) is used for checkout, git push, and gh pr create so commits and the PR are authored by github-actions[bot]. - A fine-grained PAT in COPILOT_CLI_PAT is used only for Copilot CLI auth and Dependabot alert enumeration (App tokens cannot authenticate Copilot CLI since Copilot licenses are per-user). Hardening: - Narrow --allow-tool grants; no --allow-all, no --share-gist. - --secret-env-vars redacts the PAT from logs. - --no-ask-user prevents the agent from blocking CI. - --model pinned to claude-sonnet-4.6 for reproducibility. - Agent is instructed to skip push/PR when npm build or tests fail, and to no-op when there are zero open alerts. - concurrency group with cancel-in-progress: false. - Session transcript uploaded as a workflow artifact (14-day retention).
