feat: add detailed debugging info for intermittent 403 errors on ref updates

Enhanced error messages when GitHub API returns "Resource not accessible by integration"
errors during git reference updates. The improved error output includes:
- Repository and branch context
- Token metadata (length and prefix)
- Parent and target SHA details
- GitHub Actions environment info
- Full API response details
- Debugging hints for common causes

This helps diagnose whether failures are due to protected branches, permission
issues, race conditions, or transient GitHub API issues.

 - 📋 **Progress Tracking**: Visual progress indicators with checkboxes that dynamically update as Claude completes tasks
 - 🏃 **Runs on Your Infrastructure**: The action executes entirely on your own GitHub runner (Anthropic API calls go to your chosen provider)
 
+## ⚠️ **BREAKING CHANGES COMING IN v1.0** ⚠️
+
+**We're planning a major update that will significantly change how this action works.** The new version will:
+
+- ✨ Automatically select the appropriate mode (no more `mode` input)
+- 🔧 Simplify configuration with unified `prompt` and `claude_args`
+- 🚀 Align more closely with the Claude Code SDK capabilities
+- 💥 Remove multiple inputs like `direct_prompt`, `custom_instructions`, and others
+
+**[→ Read the full v1.0 roadmap and provide feedback](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-action/discussions/428)**
+
+---
+
 ## Quickstart
 
 The easiest way to set up this action is through [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) in the terminal. Just open `claude` and run `/install-github-app`.

 - **Support for workflow_dispatch and repository_dispatch events** - Dispatch Claude on events triggered via API from other workflows or from other services
 - **Ability to disable commit signing** - Option to turn off GPG signing for environments where it's not required. This will enable Claude to use normal `git` bash commands for committing. This will likely become the default behavior once added.
 - **Better code review behavior** - Support inline comments on specific lines, provide higher quality reviews with more actionable feedback

 1. First, understand the PR context:
    - You are reviewing PR #${eventData.isPR && eventData.prNumber ? eventData.prNumber : "[PR number]"} in ${context.repository}
-   - Use mcp__github__get_pull_request to get PR metadata
    - Use the Read, Grep, and Glob tools to examine the modified files directly from disk
    - This provides the full context and latest state of the code
    - Look at the changed_files section above to see which files were modified
 
-2. Create a pending review:
+2. Create review comments using GitHub MCP tools:
-   - Use mcp__github__create_pending_pull_request_review to start your review
+   - Use Bash(gh issue comment:*) for general PR-level comments
-   - This allows you to batch comments before submitting
+   - Use mcp__github_inline_comment__create_inline_comment for line-specific feedback (strongly preferred)
    
-3. Add inline comments:
+3. When creating inline comments with suggestions:
-   - Use mcp__github__add_comment_to_pending_review for each issue or suggestion
+   CRITICAL: GitHub's suggestion blocks REPLACE the ENTIRE line range you select
-   - Parameters:
+   - For single-line comments: Use 'line' parameter only
-     * path: The file path (e.g., "src/index.js")
+   - For multi-line comments: Use both 'startLine' and 'line' parameters
-     * line: Line number for single-line comments
+   - The 'body' parameter should contain your comment and/or suggestion block
-     * startLine & line: For multi-line comments (startLine is the first line, line is the last)
-     * side: "LEFT" (old code) or "RIGHT" (new code)
-     * subjectType: "line" for line-level comments
-     * body: Your comment text
    
-   - When to use multi-line comments:
+   How to write code suggestions correctly:
-     * When replacing multiple consecutive lines
+   a) To remove a line (e.g., removing console.log on line 22):
-     * When the fix requires changes across several lines
+      - Set line: 22
-     * Example: To replace lines 19-20, use startLine: 19, line: 20
+      - Body: ${codeBlock}suggestion
+      ${codeBlock}
+      (Empty suggestion block removes the line)
    
-   - For code suggestions, use this EXACT format in the body:
+   b) To modify a single line (e.g., fixing line 22):
-     \`\`\`suggestion
+      - Set line: 22  
-     corrected code here
+      - Body: ${codeBlock}suggestion
-     \`\`\`
+      await this.emailInput.fill(email);
+      ${codeBlock}
    
-   CRITICAL: GitHub suggestion blocks must ONLY contain the replacement for the specific line(s) being commented on:
+   c) To replace multiple lines (e.g., lines 21-23):
-   - For single-line comments: Replace ONLY that line
+      - Set startLine: 21, line: 23
-   - For multi-line comments: Replace ONLY the lines in the range
+      - Body must include ALL lines being replaced:
-   - Do NOT include surrounding context or function signatures
+      ${codeBlock}suggestion
-   - Do NOT suggest changes that span beyond the commented lines
+      async typeEmail(email: string): Promise<void> {
+          await this.emailInput.fill(email);
+      }
+      ${codeBlock}
    
-   Example for line 19 \`var name = user.name;\`:
+   COMMON MISTAKE TO AVOID:
-   WRONG:
+   Never duplicate code in suggestions. For example, DON'T do this:
-   \\\`\\\`\\\`suggestion
+   ${codeBlock}suggestion
-   function processUser(user) {
+   async typeEmail(email: string): Promise<void> {
-       if (!user) throw new Error('Invalid user');
+   async typeEmail(email: string): Promise<void> {  // WRONG: Duplicate signature!
-       const name = user.name;
+       await this.emailInput.fill(email);
-   \\\`\\\`\\\`
+   }
-   
+   ${codeBlock}
-   CORRECT:
-   \\\`\\\`\\\`suggestion
-   const name = user.name;
-   \\\`\\\`\\\`
-   
-   For validation suggestions, comment on the function declaration line or create separate comments for each concern.
-
-4. Submit your review:
-   - Use mcp__github__submit_pending_pull_request_review
-   - Parameters:
-     * event: "COMMENT" (general feedback), "REQUEST_CHANGES" (issues found), or "APPROVE" (if appropriate)
-     * body: Write a comprehensive review summary that includes:
-       - Overview of what was reviewed (files, scope, focus areas)
-       - Summary of all issues found (with counts by severity if applicable)
-       - Key recommendations and action items
-       - Highlights of good practices observed
-       - Overall assessment and recommendation
