description	Use when configuring GitHub Actions workflows, writing CI/CD pipelines, setting up composite actions, or managing workflow secrets and environment variables.

GitHub Actions Guidelines

• Check if package.json exists in project root and summarize key scripts
• Check if .nvmrc exists in project root
• Check if .env.example exists in project root to identify key env: variables
• Run git branch -a | cat to verify whether the repo uses main or master
• Always use env: variables and secrets attached to jobs instead of global workflows
• Always use npm ci for Node-based dependency setup
• Extract common steps into composite actions in separate files
• For each public action, verify the most up-to-date version via:

  curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases/latest
  

  Use only the major version tag.
