Subject: [PATCH] ci(digest): push with PAT to trigger CI and auto-approve as
 barrettruth (#56)

ci(digest): push branch with PAT so CI triggers

Problem: GITHUB_TOKEN suppresses all downstream workflow triggers
including push events, so CI never runs on the digest branch.

Solution: push with DIGEST_PAT (triggers CI as a real user push),
then reset the remote to GITHUB_TOKEN for PR creation. Admin bypass
on the ruleset handles the review requirement.
