Addresses #8704
Adds script that publishes digest of recent GitHub issue comments to a given Slack channel.
The digest is a threaded message containing links to the newest comment in each recently updated issue. The digest excludes comments from staff. If a staff member is a lead for any of the issues, they will be at-mentioned in the Slack message.
Edit: Have also added a workflow that will automatically run this job daily.
Note
New repository secret
SLACK_CHANNEL_ABC_TEAM_PLUShas been created in support of the new workflow. This seems like it could simply be a variable, but we've set Slack channels as secrets for other workflows (cron_watcher).Technical
This script makes unauthenticated calls to GitHub APIs, and is subject to a rate limit of 60 calls per hour. If we find that this job is failing due to rate limiting, we can modify this script to make authenticated calls.
Testing
See the "Running the script locally" section in the README for local testing instructions.
Note
The new workflow was run manually on my repo. Results can be seen here.
