Version: N/A (workflow-only change)

What does this implement/fix?

Auto Assign now assigns new issues and PRs to the user in the AUTO_ASSIGNEE organization variable (currently WestwardWinds) instead of a name hard-coded in this repo.

Workflow-only change, no firmware change.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated assignment workflow documentation to identify the organization setting that supplies an assignee.
    • Removed the fixed assignee and assignee-count options from the reusable workflow call. The workflow no longer specifies those values explicitly.

Drop the hard-coded assignee and call the shared Workflows autoassign
workflow, which now falls back to the AUTO_ASSIGNEE organization
variable. Run on pull_request_target so assignment also works on
fork-submitted PRs; the workflow never checks out PR code.

Walkthrough

The workflow comments now identify AUTO_ASSIGNEE as the source of the assignee and clarify fork permissions and code execution. The reusable workflow call no longer passes fixed assignee values.

As written, automatic assignment will not run. Restore the required input or land the shared-workflow fallback before merging.

Retain the explicit assignees input.

The shared workflow declares assignees as required, but this caller omits it. GitHub rejects the reusable-workflow call before the assignment action runs. Restore the explicit assignee until the shared workflow makes the input optional and implements the AUTO_ASSIGNEE fallback.
