Bump actions/github-script from 8 to 9 in the github group

[dependabot]

Bumps the github group with 1 update: actions/github-script.

Updates actions/github-script from 8 to 9

Release notes

Sourced from actions/github-script's releases.

v9.0.0

New features:

• getOctokit factory function — Available directly in the script context. Create additional authenticated Octokit clients with different tokens for multi-token workflows, GitHub App tokens, and cross-org access. See Creating additional clients with getOctokit for details and examples.
• Orchestration ID in user-agent — The ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID environment variable is automatically appended to the user-agent string for request tracing.

Breaking changes:

• require('@actions/github') no longer works in scripts. The upgrade to @actions/github v9 (ESM-only) means require('@actions/github') will fail at runtime. If you previously used patterns like const { getOctokit } = require('@actions/github') to create secondary clients, use the new injected getOctokit function instead — it's available directly in the script context with no imports needed.
• getOctokit is now an injected function parameter. Scripts that declare const getOctokit = ... or let getOctokit = ... will get a SyntaxError because JavaScript does not allow const/let redeclaration of function parameters. Use the injected getOctokit directly, or use var getOctokit = ... if you need to redeclare it.
• If your script accesses other @actions/github internals beyond the standard github/octokit client, you may need to update those references for v9 compatibility.

What's Changed

• Add ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID to user-agent string by @​Copilot in actions/github-script#695
• ci: use deployment: false for integration test environments by @​salmanmkc in actions/github-script#712
• feat!: add getOctokit to script context, upgrade @​actions/github v9, @​octokit/core v7, and related packages by @​salmanmkc in actions/github-script#700

New Contributors

• @​Copilot made their first contribution in actions/github-script#695

Routine major-version bump for a GitHub Actions dependency; CI passes and no breaking changes apply.

Dependency Update Review

Package: actions/github-script v8 → v9
Semver risk: Major
Dependency type: GitHub Actions workflow step (CI-only)
CI status: Passing

Changelog Analysis

Sources consulted:

• Release notes v9.0.0 (included in PR body)
• Compare v8...v9

Breaking changes in v9:

• require('@actions/github') no longer works — @actions/github v9 is ESM-only
• getOctokit is now an injected function parameter — const/let redeclarations of it will throw a SyntaxError

New features:

• getOctokit factory function injected directly into script context (multi-token workflows)
• ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID appended to user-agent string

Security fixes: None noted.

Compatibility Assessment

The single usage in pr_build.yml (lines 34–45) uses only the injected github.rest.* context to call repos.listReleases. It does not use require('@actions/github') or declare/reference getOctokit — neither breaking change applies. No code changes were needed alongside this version bump.

• Project uses affected APIs: no
• Peer dependency changes: no
• Code changes required: no
• Prior failed attempts: no (no maintainer comments on this PR)

Recommendation

APPROVE — breaking changes don't affect this project's usage; CI confirms compatibility.

@rtibblesbot's comments are generated by an LLM, and should be evaluated accordingly

How was this generated?

Reviewed the pull request diff checking for:

• Correctness: bugs, edge cases, undocumented behavior, resource leaks, hardcoded values
• Design: unnecessary complexity, naming, readability, comment accuracy, redundant state
• Architecture: duplicated concerns, minimal interfaces, composition over inheritance
• Testing: behavior-based assertions, mocks only at hard boundaries, accurate coverage
• Completeness: missing dependencies, unupdated usages, i18n, accessibility, security
• Principles: DRY (same reason to change), SRP, Rule of Three (no premature abstraction)
• Checked CI status and linked issue acceptance criteria
• For UI changes: inspected screenshots for layout, visual completeness, and consistency

praise: Script uses only the injected github.rest.* context — the clean pattern that v9 is designed around. Neither breaking change (ESM require, getOctokit redeclaration) touches this script.
