Why
GitHub does not let workflows triggered by GITHUB_TOKEN create new workflow runs (loop prevention). When release-plz pushed v1.3.0 with the default token, neither release.yml (binaries) nor docker.yml (Phala deploy) fired.
Switching to a fine-grained PAT (RELEASE_PLZ_TOKEN with
contents: write+pull-requests: write) bypasses this restriction.Changes

The next release-plz tag push will trigger release.yml and docker.yml normally.
The existing v1.3.0 tag/release was created with GITHUB_TOKEN so downstream workflows didn't fire. To recover: delete the v1.3.0 tag + release, then re-run release-plz workflow manually. The team lead will handle this separately.
