Description

What would you like Renovate to be able to do?

I would like to be able to specify that Renovate PRs be added to a github project board.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like to able to specify one (or perhaps more) project boards to which all renovate PRs should be added, by modifying renovate.json, like this:

"projects": ['some project board name']

Describe alternatives you've considered

Currently, I have to manually add renovate PRs to a project board.

Research direction
Explore Renovate's existing GitHub API integration for creating PRs. Identify how project board assignment is implemented in other areas (e.g., labels, milestones). Investigate GitHub's GraphQL API for adding PRs to project boards. Consider configuration schema changes.
