name: actionlint

# Validates GitHub Actions workflow files with actionlint, which understands the
# Actions schema and expression grammar. This catches bugs that plain YAML linters
# miss — most notably an unquoted `${{ }}` expression containing `#`, where YAML
# treats ` #` as a comment and silently truncates the expression, producing a file
# that parses as YAML but that GitHub Actions refuses to run.
# See: .agents/skills/authoring-github-workflows/SKILL.md
