I think the idea is GitHub actions calls "build.sh", or "deploy.sh" etc. Those scripts contain all of the logic necessary to build or deploy or whatever. You can run those scripts locally for testing / development, or from CI for prod / auditing.

Yes this is what I meant! If you structure it correctly using task runners and an environment manager you can do everything locally using the same versions etc. E.g. ```yaml name: Continuous Integration (CI) on: pull_request permissions: contents: read jobs: formatting: name: Formatting runs-on: ${{ matrix.architecture }} strategy: matrix: architecture: [ubuntu-24.04, ubuntu-24.04-arm] language: [rust, shell, python] steps: - name: Checkout code. uses: actions/checkout@8e8c483db84b4bee98b60c0593521ed34d9990e8 # v6.0.1 - name: Setup Nix. uses: cachix/install-nix-action@4e002c8ec80594ecd40e759629461e26c8abed15 # v31.9.0 - name: Check formatting. run: nix develop -c make check-${{ matrix.language }}-formatting linting: name: Linting runs-on: ${{ matrix.architecture }} strategy: matrix: architecture: [ubuntu-24.04, ubuntu-24.04-arm] language: [rust] steps: - name: Checkout code. uses: actions/checkout@8e8c483db84b4bee98b60c0593521ed34d9990e8 # v6.0.1 - name: Setup Nix. uses: cachix/install-nix-action@4e002c8ec80594ecd40e759629461e26c8abed15 # v31.9.0 - name: Check linting. run: nix develop -c make check-${{ matrix.language }}-linting compile: name: Compile runs-on: ${{ matrix.architecture }} strategy: matrix: architecture: [ubuntu-24.04, ubuntu-24.04-arm] steps: - name: Checkout code. uses: actions/checkout@8e8c483db84b4bee98b60c0593521ed34d9990e8 # v6.0.1 - name: Setup Nix. uses: cachix/install-nix-action@4e002c8ec80594ecd40e759629461e26c8abed15 # v31.9.0 - name: Compile. run: nix develop -c make compile unit-test: name: Unit Test runs-on: ${{ matrix.architecture }} strategy: matrix: architecture: [ubuntu-24.04, ubuntu-24.04-arm] steps: - name: Checkout code. uses: actions/checkout@8e8c483db84b4bee98b60c0593521ed34d9990e8 # v6.0.1 - name: Setup Nix. uses: cachix/install-nix-action@4e002c8ec80594ecd40e759629461e26c8abed15 # v31.9.0 - name: Unit test. run: nix develop -c make unit-test ... ```

oh that makes sense. I thought the OP was suggesting running CI locally instead of a workflow on remote runners
