Research direction

Review the nodejs/nodejs.org repository's GitHub Actions secrets and the request for AUTO_MERGE_GITHUB_TOKEN. Confirm that a new github-bot token has read/write Contents and Pull requests permissions, is configured for the repository, and that an annual regeneration process is recorded for administrators.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

👋 Looking for a new token to be added to nodejs/nodejs.org as AUTO_MERGE_GITHUB_TOKEN, with permissions to read + write Contents and Pull requests.

Image

Looks like the org sets a 1 year limit on tokens, so this will also need to be regenerated every year by admin, please.
