 **Inputs:**
 
 - `tag_only` (boolean, default: `false`): Set to `true` to only create tags without full releases
 
-**Secrets:**
+**Requirements:**
 
-- `UNBOUND_RELEASE_TOKEN` (required): Token with API access to create PRs and releases. Required scopes: `repository` (read/write), `issue` (read/write)
+This workflow reads the release token from `/runner-secrets/release-token`, which is automatically available on Unbound's Gitea runners. No repository secrets need to be configured.
 
 **How it works:**
 
 1. On each push to the default branch, generates a changelog using git-cliff
 2. Creates or updates a `next-release` branch with the updated CHANGELOG.md and .version file
 3. Opens or updates a PR titled "chore(release): prepare for vX.Y.Z"
-4. When the .version file exists (after merging the release PR), creates a GitHub release with the changelog
