I tried out `gh aw init` and hit Y at the wrong prompt. It created a COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN on the github repo I happened to be in presumably with a token from my account. That's something that really should have an extra confirmation.

#42since generation is not deterministic, how do they verify the lock file?

#43Earlier quoted context omitted.
When they launched github.io, they said it was for user-generated content, and official stuff will be on github.com. Seemingly that's changed/they forgot, but users seems to have remembered. Microsoft isn't famous for their consistency, so not unexpected exactly.
I’m pretty sure they have used it before, or maybe it was githubnext. I’m also pretty sure I have seen many large companies and organizations launch developer facing tools and stuff through GitHub pages. The structure of GitHub pages is pretty simple. You know the user/org from the domain. I’m still not sure what’s phishy about it. Is it a broken promise?
I would say that GitHub is particularly bad about this as they also use `github.blog` for announcements. I'm not sure if they have any others, but then that's the problem, you can't expect people to magically know which of your different domains are and aren't real if you use more than one. They even announced the github.com SSH key change on github.blog.

#44I find this confusing: I can see the value in having an LLM assist you in developing a CI/CD workflow, but why would you want one involved in any continuous degree with your CI/CD? Perhaps it’s not as bad as that given that there’s a “compilation” phase, but the value add there isn’t super clear either (why would I check in both the markdown and the generated workflow; should I always regenerate from the markdown whe…
> I find this confusing: I can see the value in having an LLM assist you in developing a CI/CD workflow, but why would you want one involved in any continuous degree with your CI/CD? The sensible case for this is for delivering human-facing project documentation, not actual code. (E.g. ask the AI agent to write its own "code review" report after looking at recent commits.) It's implemented using CI/CD solutions under…

#47Github should focus on getting their core offerings in shape first. I stopped using GH actions when I ran into this issue: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/151956#discuss... That was almost a year ago and to this date I still get updates of people falling into the same issue.
The solution seems simple. Buy their product.

#48Alternative, less phishy link: https://github.com/github/gh-aw This is on GitHub's official account. For some reason GitHub is deploying this on GitHub pages without a different domain?
