Conversation
Advisory, non-blocking GitHub Action that posts a sticky comment linking
the Dev Tools Release Readiness Checklist on customer-facing PRs, visible
only to internal Heroku contributors (MEMBER/OWNER), greeting the author
by GitHub login. No elevated token, no GitHub App, no PR-head checkout.
AUTHOR is passed via env: and referenced only as the bash var $AUTHOR in
run: (never as a raw ${{ }} expression) — safe because the job already
gates on MEMBER/OWNER and a GitHub login is charset-constrained
([a-zA-Z0-9-], <=39 chars), so it cannot inject markdown or shell.
Mirrors the pr-size-label.yml house pattern for pull_request_target
safety and try()-guarded advisory writes.

Summary
Adds a small, advisory GitHub Actions workflow that leaves a friendly reminder on pull requests that change something customers see or use. When an internal contributor opens such a PR, the bot posts a single sticky comment — greeting the author by name — linking the Dev Tools Release Readiness Checklist (get a CX review; optionally share the PRD/roadmap, Dev Center docs, and a target release date). It never blocks the PR and cleans the comment up if the PR later stops touching customer-facing files.
