• The grep command uses the -oP flag which relies on Perl-compatible regex; please ensure that the runner's environment supports this flag consistently, or consider a more portable alternative if necessary.

run: echo "setup_version=$(grep -oP 'LAST_RELEASE_VERSION = Version("\K[^"]+' setup.py)" >> $GITHUB_OUTPUT

The update job directly commits and pushes changes without handling concurrent updates, which might lead to merge conflicts. Consider adding a retry mechanism or merge strategy to address potential race conditions.

Suggested change

	git push origin main
	MAX_RETRIES=3
	RETRY_COUNT=0
	while [ $RETRY_COUNT -lt $MAX_RETRIES ]; do
	git pull --rebase origin main || exit 1
	if git push origin main; then
	echo "Push succeeded."
	break
	else
	echo "Push failed. Retrying... ($((RETRY_COUNT+1))/$MAX_RETRIES)"
	RETRY_COUNT=$((RETRY_COUNT+1))
	sleep 5
	fi
	done
	if [ $RETRY_COUNT -eq $MAX_RETRIES ]; then
	echo "Push failed after $MAX_RETRIES attempts. Exiting."
	exit 1
	fi

This does seem a little fragile. Maybe instead have the workflow open a PR and tag some reviewers?
