Fix release publish: pass --repo to gh (job has no checkout)

jeromechoo · claude · jeromechoo · commit 7f313c5976c2 · 2026-06-08T15:10:27.000-05:00
The release job downloads artifacts but never checks out the repo, so gh
could not infer the repository from a local git remote and failed with
"fatal: not a git repository". Pass --repo "$GITHUB_REPOSITORY" on every
gh release call.
