<issue_to_address>
Keyword matching is case-insensitive but may match substrings unintentionally.

Consider using regular expressions with word boundaries to avoid matching keywords as substrings within other words.

@CogniCodes thank you very much for working on this. Your implementation works well! To make it easier to update in the future, what do you think about the following suggestions:

1. Configurable Keywords and Response:

• Instead of hardcoding the keywords (["assign", "work on this", ...]) and response message in the script, move them to environment variables in the env section. This allows us to update them easily without changing the script.

2. Tag the Commenter:

• Add the commenter’s username (e.g., @username) at the beginning of the auto-response to personalize it and ensure they get notified.

[samruddhi-Rahegaonkar]

To prevent repeated comments if users comment multiple times, you can
Check existing bot comments before replying.
If someone comments twice with “assign” or similar, the bot will comment each time. This creates noise.

[CogniCodes]

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll make the changes shortly and push the updates.
