Correct the wiki observation date.

Line 119 says the push denial was seen on 2026-10-14, but the review date is 2026-10-13. Correct the date or describe this as a future check.

Update the wiki push-denial note to use the review date, 2026-10-13, instead of
2026-10-14, or clearly describe the observation as a future check.

Require the owner's account before saving the wiki edit.

Line 119 permits an outsider to use the web editor but does not require the owner's authenticated account. GitHub ties web-based commits to the account's commit identity, and wiki history records who made the change. If an agent saves while signed in as itself, the published commit will not be under the owner's identity. Line 120 checks this only after publication. Require the owner's account before saving, or hand the edit to the owner. (docs.github.com)

Review comment at @skills/grow-my-repo/SKILL.md at line 119:
Update the wiki-edit instructions around the web editor step to require saving
while authenticated as the repository owner, or to hand the edit to the owner to
save; make this a prerequisite before publication rather than relying on the
check after publication.

Correct the future-dated observation.

October 14, 2026 is after October 13, 2026. Correct the date or remove it; it cannot describe an observation already made.

entry so it does not claim a future event has already occurred; leave the rest
of the entry unchanged.

Qualify the POST response status.

The API can return accepted, pending, or rejected, depending on the origin. As written, this says any anonymous POST returns accepted. State that this applies to accepted GitHub origins, and tell readers to check save_request_status. (docs.softwareheritage.org)

Review comment at @skills/grow-my-repo/references/places.md at line 163:
Update the Software Heritage entry to clarify that an anonymous POST returns
`accepted` only for accepted GitHub origins; tell readers to inspect
`save_request_status` because the API may return `pending` or `rejected` for
other origins.
