Easily use rhysd/actionlint in a Workflow run with Pyflakes and Actions caching.

- name: 'Actionlint'
  uses: cssnr/actionlint-action@master

By default, this downloads the latest version of actionlint and stores it in Actions cache for future runs. Allows setting a specific version of actionlint, setting custom command-line arguments and ShellCheck options. Automatically detect Architecture for matrix runs or specify an architecture.

Tags

The following rolling tags are maintained.

Version Tag	Rolling	Bugs	Feat.	Name	Target	Example
	✅	✅	✅	Major	vN.x.x	vN
	✅	✅	❌	Minor	vN.N.x	vN.N
	❌	❌	❌	Micro	vN.N.N	vN.N.N

You can view the release notes for each version on the releases page.

The Major tag is recommended. It is the most up-to-date and always backwards compatible. Breaking changes would result in a Major version bump. At a minimum you should use a Minor tag.
