Subject: [PATCH] ci(digest): drop explicit approve, rely on admin bypass (#64)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The GITHUB_TOKEN has admin-level bypass on the ruleset. When
gh pr merge --auto is called, the bypass satisfies the review
requirement automatically — no explicit approve step needed.
The self-review error is gone. PAT still handles the push so
CI triggers.
