Add GITHUB_TOKEN to build step for board data fetching

[Copilot]

The /board/ page displays empty content because fetch-board-data.js requires GitHub GraphQL API authentication, but the pages.yml workflow doesn't pass a token to the build step.

Changes

• Add GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable to "Build website" step in .github/workflows/pages.yml

- name: Build website
  env:
    GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
  run: bun run build

This matches the pattern used in update-driver-versions.yml and pdf.yml. Unlike REST API endpoints used by other fetch scripts, GraphQL requires authentication and cannot work anonymously.

Original prompt

Problem

The /board/ page at https://docs.projectbluefin.io/board/ isn't populated with real data because the fetch-board-data.js script requires a GitHub token for GraphQL API access, but the pages.yml workflow doesn't pass the token to the build step.

Root Cause

In .github/workflows/pages.yml, the "Build website" step runs bun run build, which triggers npm run fetch-data (including fetch-board-data). However, unlike the REST API used by other fetch scripts, the GraphQL API requires authentication - it cannot work anonymously.

The script at scripts/fetch-board-data.js checks for GITHUB_TOKEN or GH_TOKEN and creates an empty JSON file when no token is found, resulting in an empty board page.

Solution

Add the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable to the build step in .github/workflows/pages.yml:

      - name: Build website
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        run: bun run build

This matches the pattern used in other workflows like update-driver-versions.yml and pdf.yml.

Files to modify

• .github/workflows/pages.yml - Add env block with GITHUB_TOKEN to the "Build website" step
