Both workflows use:

- `RDKCM_DEPLOY_KEY`: SSH private key used by checkout and git push operations.
- `RDKCM_RDKE`: token used by `gh` API/CLI calls.
- `github.token`: built-in GitHub Actions token used by `gh` API/CLI calls.

- It is automatically provided for each workflow run.
- It avoids introducing a custom repository secret for API access.
- It works with the workflow permissions already declared in these jobs.
