+### Authenticating via a Github App
+
+A Github App can both produce verified commits _and_ create pull requests that will trigger further Github Actions.
+
+Create a stub Github App in your organization. Disable webhooks, add Content write and Pull Request write permissions, and make it available only within your organization. Install the App in the Organization (possibly restricting only to relevant repos). Copy the App secret into an Actions secret, along with the App ID.

+Set up your workflow like this:
+
+```yaml
+name: update-flake-lock
+on:
+  workflow_dispatch: # allows manual triggering
+  schedule:
+    - cron: '0 0 * * 1,4' # Run twice a week

 ## With GPG commit signing
 
 It's possible for the bot to produce GPG signed commits. Associating a GPG public key to a github user account is not required but it is necessary if you want the signed commits to appear as verified in Github. This can be a compliance requirement in some cases.
