-# GitHub Workflows
-
-This directory contains GitHub Actions workflows for the TruffleHog repository.
-
-## PR Approval Check (`pr-approval-check.yml`)
-
-This workflow enforces that at least one PR approver must be an **active** member of the `@trufflesecurity/product-eng` team or any of its child teams.
-
-### How it works:
-
-1. **Triggers**: The workflow runs on:
-   - `pull_request_review` events when a review is submitted (`submitted` type)
-   - `pull_request` events when a PR is opened, reopened, or synchronized (`opened`, `reopened`, `synchronize` types)
-
-2. **Approval Check Process**: The workflow:
-   - Fetches all reviews for the PR using the GitHub API
-   - Filters for reviews with state `APPROVED`
-   - Gets all child teams of `@trufflesecurity/product-eng` using `listChildInOrg` API
-   - Checks if any approver is an **active** member (not pending) of either:
-     - The parent `@trufflesecurity/product-eng` team, OR
-     - Any of its child teams
-   - Sets a commit status accordingly
-
-3. **Status Check**: Creates a commit status named `product-eng-approval` with:
-   - ✅ **Success**: When at least one approver is an active member of `@trufflesecurity/product-eng` or any child team
-   - ❌ **Failure**: When there are no approvals or there are approvals but none from active `@trufflesecurity/product-eng` members
-
-### Error Handling
-
-If there are errors listing reviews or checking team membership, the workflow reports a failure status and also fails itself.
-
-### Branch Protection
-
-To make this check required:
-
-1. Go to Settings → Branches
-2. Add or edit a branch protection rule for your main branch
-3. Enable "Require status checks to pass before merging"
-4. Add `pr-approval-check` to the required status checks
-
-### Permissions
-
-The workflow uses the default `GITHUB_TOKEN` which has sufficient permissions to:
-- Read PR reviews
-- List child teams and check team membership (for public teams)
-- Create commit statuses
-
-**Note**: If the `product-eng` team or its child teams are private, you may need to use a personal access token with appropriate permissions. The Github API returns 404 for non-members and for lack of permissions.
