Prevent GitHub workflow from disabling

[jakebeal]

Problems in this repository have appeared without being noticed because the CI was automatically disabled by GitHub after going 60 days without a commit.

This is a known problem, and others have developed solutions for it, e.g.: https://stackoverflow.com/a/78843363/2779147

So we should try setting up the GitHub Workflow Immortality script to address this problem: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-workflow-immortality

Probably a good place to install the script will be not here, but in https://github.com/SynBioDex/.github , in order to be able to cover all repositories for which we want to keep the CI unfrozen.

From my initial investigation, I don't think I can solve this until elevated privileges are granted.

The immortality script requires configuring secrets for each affected repo. Because I no longer have ownership privileges over this repo, I cannot create secrets here, or anywhere in SynBioDex for that matter.

Furthermore, consolidating a single immortality script for multiple repos across SynBioDex in the https://github.com/SynBioDex/.github repo will require sharing secrets across the organization, which incorporates an additional layer of complexity.

I don't understand how user privileges in the SynBioDex organization are currently managed. For example, I am a member of the Admin Team, but this just appears to be a name, and no admin privileges are actually assigned to this team. Do only Editors actually have ownership of repos and ability to configure repo settings?

I have bumped your privileges to "admin" on this repository: let's see if that allows you to install the script here.
