actions/checkout@v6 stores credentials using includeIf scoped to the repo and its worktrees. The docs deploy action creates a temporary worktree, causing checkout's GITHUB_TOKEN credentials to override the app token, resulting in a 403 as github-actions[bot]. Setting persist-credentials: false prevents checkout from storing any credentials, so only the deploy action's own app token is used.

add persist-credentials: false to the checkout step so no credentials are stored, and only the deploy action's own app token is used.
