Can you elaborate Ben? My only concern is how often we run this workflow and what to do with the results found.

Thanks for the review. I will be making the suggested changes : )

All suggested changes have been implemented:

• This workflow will now run monthly and manually when needed.
• It will create an issue with the link checker report if it does not exist; otherwise, it will update the existing issue.
• We can manually run this workflow on every PR if needed.

Please manually run this workflow to check whether it is working fine or not.

I have run it on my local dummy repo its working fine.
