A simple Action to count the remaining seats in an GitHub plan. It is intended to be used in conjunction with other actions to do something like notify the user when there are less than 10 seats remaining.

The values output from this action could be from the organization or the enterprise depending on the GitHub plan.

Create a workflow (eg: .github/workflows/seat-count.yml). See Creating a Workflow file.

You will need to create a PAT(Personal Access Token) that has admin:org access.

Add this PAT as a secret so we can use it as input github-token, see Creating encrypted secrets for a repository.

If your organization has SAML enabled you must authorize the PAT, see Authorizing a personal access token for use with SAML single sign-on.
