Conversation
Without a token Renovate downloads node/npm/yarn anonymously from api.github.com, hits the rate limit on hosted agents and raises npm/yarn PRs without their lock files (artifactErrors). - New GitHubComToken parameter, passed to Renovate as RENOVATE_GITHUB_COM_TOKEN. - New Check GitHub Token step runs PSScripts/Test-GitHubComToken.ps1 first: a missing, expired or revoked token fails the run with a Slack alert; a token expiring within GitHubComTokenExpiryWarningDays (14) posts a Slack warning. - Pester tests cover each branch, mocking the GitHub API and Slack.

Problem
Renovate runs without a github.com token, so its node/npm/yarn downloads hit the anonymous api.github.com rate limit. When that happens, npm/yarn PRs are raised without their lock files (
artifactErrors).Change
GitHubComTokenparameter, passed to Renovate asRENOVATE_GITHUB_COM_TOKEN.PSScripts/Test-GitHubComToken.ps1before Renovate:GitHubComTokenExpiryWarningDays(default 14), it posts a Slack warning and Renovate still runs.Consumers must pass
