What is the action we're going to perform/result we're striving for?

It seems that the point where it goes wrong is the git push.

==> Check Github Secrets

Possible reason that Github Actions fails: GITHUB_ISSUE_AUTH_TOKEN not valid.
==> Create new token

Generate a Personal Access Token:
Log In to GitHub:

Go to GitHub and log in to your account.
Access Token Settings:

Click on your profile picture in the top right corner of the GitHub page.
Select Settings from the dropdown menu.
In the left sidebar, click on Developer settings.
Create a New Token:

In the Developer settings menu, select Personal access tokens.
Click on Generate new token.
Configure Token Scopes:

Give your token a descriptive name, like Issue Management.
Under Select scopes, check the boxes for the permissions you need. For managing issues, you might need:
repo (for private repositories)
public_repo (for public repositories)
write:issues (if specifically available)
You can also select admin:repo_hook if you need to manage webhooks or other settings related to issues.
Generate the Token:

Scroll down and click on Generate token.
Important: Copy the token immediately and store it securely. You won’t be able to see it again.

Creating a new token did not solve the problem:
“RequestError [HttpError]: Bad credentials”
