• Pull requests: Read & Write
  • check the box for Pull Request events

2. Add a .github/config.yml file that contains the contents you would like to reply within a firstPRMergeComment

# Configuration for first-pr-merge - https://github.com/behaviorbot/first-pr-merge
# Comment to be posted to on Pr's merged by a first time user
firstPRMergeComment: >
  Congrats on merging your first pull request! We here at behaviorbot are proud of you!

# Install dependencies
