sweep: post commit statuses via our own GitHub App#45
Merged
Conversation
The exe.dev integration's token is statuses:read-only, so GITHUB_STATUS 403s on every post through gh. New optional GITHUB_STATUS_APP_ID + GITHUB_STATUS_APP_KEY mint short-lived installation tokens from our own App's key (RS256 JWT, node:crypto, curl with the bearer on stdin) and post statuses directly to api.github.com; gh stays the fallback and the transport for everything else.

statuses: read-only, so enablingGITHUB_STATUS403s on every post (Resource not accessible by integration) — which is why it's been forced off on the VMs and open findings are invisible in the PR checks row.This adds an optional own-App transport for statuses only:
GITHUB_STATUS_APP_ID+GITHUB_STATUS_APP_KEY(path to the App's .pem) inconfig.envappJwtbuilds the RS256 App JWT with node:crypto (no new deps); installation token minted withstatuses: writeonly and cached 55min instate/gh-app-token.json, so the every-minute cron mints ~once an hourghis pinned to the exe.dev proxy viaGH_HOST); the bearer rides curl's stdin config, never argvgh api); any failure degrades to a logged skip, same as a gh outageSetup: create a GitHub App with Commit statuses R/W, install on the repo, drop the .pem on the VM, set the two keys.
