# Description of Changes
Please provide a summary of the changes, including:
- **What was changed**
- Removed individual `actions/create-github-app-token` steps and
replaced them with a centralized `setup-bot` custom action across all
workflows.
- Updated steps to use `steps.setup-bot.outputs` instead of
`steps.generate-token.outputs`.
- Standardized step names and ordering (e.g. checkout before bot setup).
- Simplified `sync_files.yml` by eliminating the `read_bot_entries` job
and directly using `setup-bot` outputs.
- Added or adjusted permissions where required (e.g.
`repository-projects: write` in `licenses-update.yml`).
- **Why the change was made**
- To centralize and standardize GitHub App authentication logic, reduce
duplication, and improve maintainability of CI workflows.
- To ensure a consistent bot identity (app slug, token,
committer/author) across all actions and PR automation.
- To streamline workflow configurations and make future updates easier.
