-### Permissions
-
-This Action requires the following permissions on the GitHub integration token:
-
-```yaml
-permissions:
-  contents: write
-```
-
-When used with `discussion_category_name`, additional permission is needed:
-
-```yaml
-permissions:
-  contents: write
-  discussions: write
-```
-
-[GitHub token permissions](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/automatic-token-authentication#permissions-for-the-github_token) can be set for an individual job, workflow, or for Actions as a whole.
-
-Note that if you intend to run workflows on the release event (`on: { release: { types: [published] } }`), you need to use
-a personal access token for this action, as the [default `secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN` does not trigger another workflow](https://github.com/actions/create-release/issues/71).
