github-script

Use for authoring or reviewing uses: actions/github-script@v9 workflow steps.

with.script runs as an async function body; use await import(...) for module imports.

Defaults

• Pin actions/github-script@v9
• Runtime is Node 24
• Self-hosted runner minimum is v2.327.1
• Prefer github.rest.* endpoint methods; use github.request(...) for raw requests.
• For multi-token / cross-org / GitHub App scenarios, build extra clients with the injected getOctokit(token, opts?) factory; do not redeclare it with const/let.
• Prefer ESM modules (.mjs or .js with // @ts-check); avoid CommonJS (require, module.exports). require('@actions/github') no longer works in v9 — @actions/github v9 is ESM-only.
• If authoring helpers in TypeScript, compile to .mjs/.js and import the built file in workflow steps.
