* Add missing validation for action.yml (parity with workflow files)
- Add uses format validation for composite action steps
- Validates owner/repo@ref format
- Supports docker:// and ./ local references
- Warns about shortened SHA refs (security concern)
- Detects reusable workflow references in wrong context
- Add if literal text detection for composite action steps
- Detects literal text outside ${{ }} that makes conditions always truthy
- Works for both plain string and mixed expression formats
- Uses shared hasFormatWithLiteralText() utility
- Add pre-if/post-if validation for node and docker actions
- Errors on explicit ${{ }} syntax (runner only supports implicit expressions)
- Literal text detection for implicit expressions
- New runs-if schema type with proper context (runner, github, job, env, inputs, status functions)
- Validates only in strict schema used by language services
- Add format() function validation for all expressions
- Validates format string syntax in all expression contexts
- Checks argument count matches placeholders
- Fix env and matrix context providers to return complete=false
- Prevents false positive 'unknown context' errors
- Matches behavior of other dynamic contexts (secrets, vars, etc.)
- Refactor validation utilities into utils/validate-uses.ts and utils/validate-if.ts
- Shared between workflow and action validation
- Consistent error messages and codes
* Add strategy and matrix contexts to runs-if definition
Based on runner source code analysis (actions/runner):
- ExecutionContext.InitializeJob() populates ExpressionValues from message.ContextData
- strategy and matrix are part of message.ContextData, available before any steps run
- StepsRunner evaluates all steps (pre, main, post) using the same code path
Did NOT add:
- steps: empty at pre-if time (no steps completed yet)
- hashFiles: workspace files don't exist at pre-step time

Note
Thank you for your interest in this GitHub repo, however, right now we are not taking contributions.
We continue to focus our resources on strategic areas that help our customers be successful while making developers' lives easier. While GitHub Actions remains a key part of this vision, we are allocating resources towards other areas of Actions and are not taking contributions to this repository at this time. The GitHub public roadmap is the best place to follow along for any updates on features we’re working on and what stage they’re in.
We are taking the following steps to better direct requests related to GitHub Actions, including:
-
We will be directing questions and support requests to our Community Discussions area
-
High Priority bugs can be reported through Community Discussions or you can report these to our support team https://support.github.com/contact/bug-report.
-
Security Issues should be handled as per our security.md
We will still provide security updates for this project and fix major breaking changes during this time.
