Oh boy, there's a special kind of hell I enter into everytime I set up new github actions. I wrote a blog post a few months ago about my pain[0] but one of the main things I've found over the years is you can massively reduce how horrible writing github actions is by avoiding prebuilt actions, and just using it as a handy shell runner.
If you write behaviour in python/ruby/bash/hell-rust-if-you-really-want and leave your github action at `run: python some/script.py` then you'll have something that's much easy to test locally, and save yourself a lot of pain, even if you wind up with slightly more boilerplate.
