Dependabot PRs don't have access to the CLAUDE_APP_ID / CLAUDE_APP_PRIVATE_KEY secrets (they aren't mirrored into the Dependabot secret scope), so actions/create-github-app-token always fails with "'client-id' input must be set to a non-empty string". A generated PR overview isn't useful for dependency bumps anyway.

Summary
Failures seen on Dependabot PRs (e.g. #371).
Fix 1 (code change in this PR): the
Generate PR Overviewjob now skips for Dependabot PRs.The job uses
actions/create-github-app-tokenwithCLAUDE_APP_ID/CLAUDE_APP_PRIVATE_KEY, which are only set in the Actions secret scope. Dependabot has its own separate secret scope, and those two secrets aren't mirrored there — so on every Dependabot PR the step fails with'client-id' input must be set to a non-empty string. A generated PR overview isn't useful for dependency bumps, so skipping is the right call.Test plan
