🚫 Close Pull Request

A GitHub action to automatically close a pull request.

Note that only pull requests being opened from the same repository can be closed. This action will not currently work for pull requests from forks -- like is common in open source projects -- because the token for forked pull request workflows does not have write permissions.

Usage

This Action subscribes to pull_request events. When receiving a pull_request event, this action closes the pull request triggered by the event immediately.
