# The tag is already pushed, so a failed dispatch leaves a version with
# no release, and the next run tags past it. The job token shares the
# repository's hourly installation quota with every scan on the push
# to main, and a run of merges spends it: on 2026-11-13 every dispatch
# after the first answered "API rate limit exceeded for installation".
# So retry, then dispatch with the release token, which has its own
# quota (and is the token release.yml publishes with anyway).
