```

### Action inputs

| Name | Description | Default |

| --- | --- | --- |

| `token` | `GITHUB_TOKEN` or a `repo` scoped [PAT](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token). | `GITHUB_TOKEN` |

| `repository` | The GitHub repository containing the pull request. | `github.repository` (Current repository) |

| `comment` | A comment to make on the pull request before closing. | |

### Accessing pull requests in other repositories

You can close pull requests in another repository by using a [PAT](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token) instead of `GITHUB_TOKEN`.

The user associated with the PAT must have write access to the repository.
