Problem
After recent upgrades, workflows that create PRs can post extra bot comments like:
✅ Pull request created: #...
This happens via activation-comment update/fallback logic when GH_AW_COMMENT_ID is missing. These comments are outside the expected safe-output payload flow and add noise in repos that want silent automation.
Current behavior
messages.append-only-comments controls edit-vs-new-comment behavior for status updates.- There is no documented/frontmatter setting to disable activation comments entirely (including fallback creation comments).
Request
Please add a frontmatter/safe-outputs option to disable activation/fallback comments, e.g.:
safe-outputs:
messages:
activation-comments: false(or equivalent naming)
Why
Some repos want safe-output actions (create PR/issue/etc.) without additional informational bot comments unless explicitly requested.
