Summary
The auto-approve job fails on every Dependabot PR with
no required checks reported(see this run) becausegh pr checks --requiredhas nothing to watch — master has no required status checks configured.This makes the wait step tolerate that case: when the only failure reason is that no required checks exist, the job proceeds to approve instead of failing. Genuine check failures and timeouts still fail the job as before.
