Triggering a CI/CD build when a tag is added to the GitHub repo this repo is forked from?
There's a project using GitHub releases to release their packages. I've built a process that repackages the released files and uploads the repackaged files to a special GitHub release in my fork of the repository.
I'd like to fully automate this by having my process run automatically whenever a new GitHub release tag is added to the original repository.
Is there an existing CI/CD service that could do this?
- If yes which and can you point me to the right area of the docs to figure it out?
- If no, are there options for wiring this up myself somehow? For example, using a webhook and an existing service in a non-standard way to accomplish the goal?

The repo owner would have to set up a webhook to deliver some service you could subscribe to. Unfortunately the only option would be to poll the API for a new release.

GitHub has webhooks for this purpose.
https://developer.github.com/v3/activity/events/types/#createevent
CreateEvent
Represents a created repository, branch, or tag.
Note: webhooks will not receive this event for created repositories. Additionally, webhooks will not receive this event for tags if more than three tags are pushed at once.
Once the tag is pushed GitHub will invoke the given URL with the appropriate JSON as described in the DOCs above.

Yeah, I read the webhook docs, and to my reading that would only trigger for a creation of a tag in this repository, not the repository it was forked from. Do you know otherwise?
