Sanctum tokens on a model with ULID keys: switch to ulidMorphs

php artisan install:api publishes the personal_access_tokens migration with:

$table->morphs('tokenable');

That creates an integer tokenable_id. If the model that owns tokens uses HasUlids (or HasUuids), creating a token fails or stores garbage. Change it before you migrate:

$table->ulidMorphs('tokenable'); // or uuidMorphs()

The model doesn't need to extend User for Sanctum: any model with HasApiTokens works, and auth:sanctum hands you that model from $request->user().
