There are many tools and techniques like this. Not a nock against this tool, just an observation that we seemingly need these tools.
Is there no better way, GitHub?

CircleCI solved this anno 2011, with "Rebuild with SSH". Microsoft asleep at the wheel as usual, not sure it's unexpected at this point.
The more you have to rerun your actions to debug them, the more money Microsoft makes. They aren’t incentivized to save you time.
Completely bonkers that people, companies and organizations just swallow this, bait and all.

Dagger. Workflows that run anywhere, including locally.
I've seen dagger pipelines they're horrendous. Just have GitHub Actions call out to a task runner like Make/Taskfile etc and use an environment manager Mise or Nix to install all the tools.
I think that is a good pattern too, though I would replace the make/taskfile step with something bazel-like.
Dagger used to be more declarative with CUE, but demand was not strong enough.
