Research direction
Start by reading this issue and the referenced reviews and comments in nodejs/tweet pull requests 10 and 13. Confirm the bot identity, the requested repo_public permission, and the secure handoff process; done means the automation has the required credential without exposing its value.

Description
This week, @joesepi and I spent some time on automating the nodejs/tweet repo so we can consistently and easily get out any tweets that should be going out regularly. We started with two, and in the process came across a tiny hitch: for one action to trigger another, we need to use a PAT instead of the Actions-provided token since one action can't trigger off of another if there's a GitHub provided token being used in the other.
Per @gr2m's advice (he is the maintainer of both Actions we're consuming), we need a PAT from the bot with the following permission:
- repo_public
