Part of the gh action:

@ad-m here it is, says read and write

In your reference (cbosa run), you were pushing to master, I am trying to push to PR branch.

Looks mention:

GITHUB_TOKEN Permissions
  Actions: read
  Checks: read
  Contents: read
  Deployments: read
  Discussions: read
  Issues: read
  Metadata: read
  Packages: read
  PullRequests: read
  RepositoryProjects: read
  SecurityEvents: read
  Statuses: read

Default is:

GITHUB_TOKEN Permissions
  Actions: write
  Checks: write
  Contents: write
  Deployments: write
  Discussions: write
  Issues: write
  Metadata: read
  Packages: write
  PullRequests: write
  RepositoryProjects: write
  SecurityEvents: write
  Statuses: write

See https://github.com/ad-m/cbosa/runs/3197304980?check_suite_focus=true .

Something is restricting permission.

What do you have at https://github.com/NRCHKB/node-red-contrib-homekit-docker/settings/actions in “Workflow permissions” section?
