Command used with act

(~/code/nektos/act/dist/local/act --use-new-action-cache -j spelling -s "GITHUB_TOKEN=$GH_TOKEN" 2>&1)

Describe issue

Using a fine-grained token that allows contents:read for a private repository, act (using --use-new-action-cache) isn't able to retrieve my public action.

Workflow content

name: Check Spelling

# Comment management is handled through a secondary job, for details see:
# https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Feature%3A-Restricted-Permissions
#
# `jobs.comment-push` runs when a push is made to a repository and the `jobs.spelling` job needs to make a comment
#   (in odd cases, it might actually run just to collapse a comment, but that's fairly rare)
#   it needs `contents: write` in order to add a comment.
#
# `jobs.comment-pr` runs when a pull_request is made to a repository and the `jobs.spelling` job needs to make a comment
#   or collapse a comment (in the case where it had previously made a comment and now no longer needs to show a comment)
#   it needs `pull-requests: write` in order to manipulate those comments.

# Updating pull request branches is managed via comment handling.
# For details, see: https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Feature:-Update-expect-list
#
# These elements work together to make it happen:
#
# `on.issue_comment`
#   This event listens to comments by users asking to update the metadata.
#
# `jobs.update`
#   This job runs in response to an issue_comment and will push a new commit
#   to update the spelling metadata.
#
# `with.experimental_apply_changes_via_bot`
#   Tells the action to support and generate messages that enable it
#   to make a commit to update the spelling metadata.
#
# `with.ssh_key`
#   In order to trigger workflows when the commit is made, you can provide a
#   secret (typically, a write-enabled github deploy key).
#
#   For background, see: https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Feature:-Update-with-deploy-key

# Sarif reporting
#
# Access to Sarif reports is generally restricted (by GitHub) to members of the repository.
#
# Requires enabling `security-events: write`
# and configuring the action with `use_sarif: 1`
#
#   For information on the feature, see: https://github.com/check-spelling/check-spelling/wiki/Feature:-Sarif-output

# Minimal workflow structure:
#
# on:
#   push:
#     ...
#   pull_request_target:
#     ...
# jobs:
#   # you only want the spelling job, all others should be omitted
#   spelling:
#     # remove `security-events: write` and `use_sarif: 1`
#     # remove `experimental_apply_changes_via_bot: 1`
#     ... otherwise adjust the `with:` as you wish

Apparently I have an expired GITHUB_TOKEN in .secrets which has precedence over the -s GITHUB_TOKEN=.... This is undesirable.

Weird I have just created a fine grained PAT.

With almost no access, but - uses: actions/cache@refs/heads/main and other public actions didn't break for me

Does act use the correct GITHUB_TOKEN?

Using - uses: christopherhx/ghat3@test works, access denied for you
Using - uses: christopherhx/ghat2@test access denied, but expeced

Using a .secrets file with content

GITHUB_TOKEN=github_pat_...

BTW: I don't care about leaking these private repo names.

A .secrets file with an invalid GITHUB_TOKEN secret seem to override the GITHUB_TOKEN passed from the cli.

Is that the bug you are seeing?

You're right, there was an expired token in .secrets.

Sorry.
