Today when I added a workflow and push the code to GitHub remote repo, shows this error:

refusing to allow a Personal Access Token to create or update workflow

This is the full error output:

I am auth with token and have privillege to modify the repo. Now I could not push using password. When I try to use my password, the error message is:

Why would this happen and what should I do to fix it?
