# ── Create PR ───────────────────────────────────────────────────
# GitHub App installation tokens expire after 1 hour. The build/verify
# phase routinely runs longer than that, so the original app-token
# minted at job start is expired by the time we get here, causing
# `gh pr create` to fail with 401 Bad credentials (the `git push`
# itself works because actions/checkout uses the workflow's own
# GITHUB_TOKEN, which is valid for the full job lifetime). Mint a
# fresh app token immediately before any late-running `gh` calls.
