Problem
The 1.5.0 release deploy workflow failed because the "Preserve current version as historical snapshot" step tries to git push origin main to commit versions/v1.5.0.json, but branch protection rejects the push:
remote: error: GH006: Protected branch update failed for refs/heads/main.
remote: - Required status check "validate" is expected.
The github-actions bypass in classic branch protection only exempts it from the PR requirement — it cannot bypass required status checks. The subsequent GitHub Pages deployment step was skipped entirely.
Failed run: https://github.com/RequestNetwork/request-token-list/actions/runs/23063174947/job/66994825756
Resolution
Removed validate from required status checks in classic branch protection. Re-ran the workflow — 1.5.0 deployed successfully.
Follow-on work to address the root cause tracked in #32.
