Research direction

Start with the referenced nodejs/docker-node pull request #1410 and the linked GitHub Container Registry migration guide. Verify the required PAT scopes and confirm that the repository secret is named CR_PAT; done means the secret is available for publishing Docker images.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Request to create new Personal Access Token so we can publish docker images to GitHub Registry.

  1. Create a new personal access token (PAT) with the appropriate scopes for the tasks you want to accomplish
  • Select the read:packages scope to download container images and read their metadata.
  • Select the write:packages scope to download and upload container images and read and write their metadata.
  • Select the delete:packages scope to delete container images.
  1. Create a repository secret called CR_PAT with the value of the PAT created before.
