Issues with PR Review comments when upgrading from @beta to @v1

[samgold2020]

Describe the bug
After upgrading claude-code-action from @beta to @v1 and following the essential changes recommended here comments were no longer populating on our PRs.

Reverting the change and using @beta resolves the problem

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Update from beta to v1
2. Update direct_prompt to prompt
3. See that GHA gets kicked off successfully
4. Note that no comment appears

Expected behavior
After upgrading a comment should appear on the PR when the GHA is run

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

I see the same in my repos btw.

I just found a workaround for this issue here:
https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-action/blob/main/docs/migration-guide.md#automation-with-progress-tracking-new-in-v10

track_progress should fix this issue.

Same for me. The bigger issue is that I can’t use track_progress since we've set the auto review to trigger on a labelled event

[BillChirico]

I have this issue as well where it doesn't update the comment after the job has completed
