Use pull_request_target for this post-merge workflow.
GitHub provides an empty pull_request payload for merged pull requests and fork-origin pull requests. The merged guard therefore evaluates false and skips the job, so the pinned action never processes references or posts discussion comments and closures. Fork-origin pull_request runs also receive a read-only GITHUB_TOKEN, which cannot use discussions: write.
Change the trigger to pull_request_target and keep the merged guard. Do not check out or execute pull request code. This action only reads the event payload and performs the required GraphQL mutations.

Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Fork PRs cannot update discussions
Medium Severity
The pull_request trigger issues a read-only GITHUB_TOKEN for merged fork PRs, so the action cannot comment on or close the referenced discussion. Those discussions stay open and unlinked after the implementing PR ships.

GitHub links merged pull requests to issues through
Closes #N, but discussions have no equivalent. A discussion that asks for a feature stays open and unlinked after the pull request implementing it merges, so the person who filed it is never told it shipped and the thread has to be closed by hand.This adds a workflow that runs when a pull request merges, scans its body for discussion references, and comments on each referenced discussion with a link back to the pull request.
Closes #N,Fixes #N,Resolves #NRESOLVEDRefs #N,Discussion: #NA PR titled
feat(status): show the last cron start and next scheduled timewhose body ends inCloses #901posts this on discussion #901 the moment it merges:Numbers that turn out to be issues or pull requests are skipped, so GitHub's native issue linking is unaffected, and a pull request whose body references no discussion does nothing at all. Only same-repository references (
#42) are recognized, notowner/repo#42.The action is pinned to
jdx/link-discussion-action@38e7537— a fork ofgaojunran/link-discussion-actionv0.1 (MIT) taken at that same commit, so the code that runs against this repository's token is not controlled by a third-party account. The committeddist/index.jswas verified byte-identical (sha256ec31b601…) to a rebuild fromsrc/with the locked dependencies. It authenticates with the automaticGITHUB_TOKENscoped todiscussions: writeandpull-requests: read; no new secrets are required.This has been running in jdx/pitchfork since #596 and is being rolled out to every repository with Discussions enabled.

Overview
Adds a
link-discussionGitHub Actions workflow that runs when a pull request is merged (not merely closed). It uses the pinnedjdx/link-discussion-actionwith the defaultGITHUB_TOKEN, granteddiscussions: writeandpull-requests: read, to find discussion references in the PR body and post a back-link comment (and optionally resolve discussions when keywords likeCloses #Nare used).This mirrors issue auto-linking for GitHub Discussions so requesters get notified when their feature ships, without adding new secrets.
