Pull request overview
This PR improves the release workflow’s commit authorship by resolving the GitHub App bot account’s numeric user ID at runtime (via the GitHub API) and using it in the users.noreply.github.com commit email format, avoiding reliance on a hardcoded ID.
Changes:
- Add a “Resolve release bot identity” step that fetches
/users/{app-slug}[bot]and extracts the numeric.id. - Export the resolved ID as a workflow step output (
user-id). - Use the resolved
user-idinGIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL/GIT_COMMITTER_EMAILfor the semantic-release step.

Use an explicit bash shell, URL-encode the [bot] path segment, and emit user_id so Actions expressions do not treat the output name as subtraction.
