Automation

• CI (.github/workflows/ci.yml): every PR and push to main runs brew style and brew audit --strict --online over all formulas.
• Bumps (.github/workflows/bump.yml): each project's release workflow sends a repository_dispatch (bump-formula) to this repo after publishing its assets. The workflow runs scripts/bump-formula.sh, which rewrites the version line and recomputes every sha256 from the released archives, then opens a PR. It can also be run manually from the Actions tab.
• livecheck: every formula has a livecheck block, so brew livecheck --tap shellcell/tap reports new upstream versions.

One-time setup

Create a PAT that can write to this repo (fine-grained: Contents and Pull requests read/write on shellcell/homebrew-tap) and add it as an Actions secret named TAP_GITHUB_TOKEN in:

• this repo (so bump PRs trigger the CI workflow — PRs opened with the default GITHUB_TOKEN don't start other workflows), and
• each project repo (cnvrt, exex, snailrace, ttysvg), whose release workflows use it to send the dispatch.
