I tested the workflow in my own testing environment:

But your checks in the repository are not required. I had the experience when you have required checks that it can fail.

Edit: And you don't have CODEOWNERS reviews enabled, right?

I had a required step and it works perfectly. 🙌 The codeowner issue can be solved in each repository explicitly with an adaption of the CODEOWNERS file. But I would keep this configuration in the specific repository. 🎉 And if we find that we need to adjust something, then I would improve the action step by step.

I agree that we can iterate on it if it is in a basic working state, which it seems to be. I would like see a bit of additional docs (e.g. CODEOWNERS). Maybe add a verbal hint, that this workflow will be called by the on: pull_request workflow, thereby on dependabot PRs.
