Where does the bug appear (feature/product)? Background Agent (GitHub, Slack, Web, Linear) Describe the Bug A GitHub automation with a Checks completed trigger does not fire at all for a private organization repository.

That by Me filter detail is a sharp catch. Matching against the CI bot actor instead of the PR author is exactly the kind of quiet mismatch that makes the whole thing look broken when the install is actually fine. Between the org-level install and the by Anyone workaround, that covers both halves of…
