Limitations

GitHub restricts the maximum permissions to read-only for personal access tokens for pull requests originating from a public forked repository (read more here). This prevents the default configuration of this action from successfully posting the report as a PR comment when using it on public repositories with limited permissions for users to create branches and therefore requiring them to create pull requests from forks.
