This is a compelling idea, but it doesn't seem to work. Running it on a yml I'm working on currently, it skipped all my setup actions and then failed because the dependencies it needed weren't set up (why did you think I wrote them?) There doesn't seem to be a way to force-run a skipped step.
Thank you so much! Huge bug. Action steps (uses:) were silently skipped, which meant any workflow relying on setup actions would just fail.
This should be fixed in v0.1.3. Action steps now pause instead of auto-skipping, and PipeStep offers to run a local equivalent when one exists. It also parses with: inputs, so setup-node with node-version: 18 actually installs Node 18 in the container. Currently supported: checkout, setup-node, setup-python, setup-go, setup-java, cache, upload/download-artifact. Anything unrecognized gives you a clear pause to run commands manually.
Would genuinely appreciate it if you gave it another shot (pip install --upgrade pipestep) and if you hit anything else, issues on GitHub would be incredibly helpful. The "why did you think I wrote them?" line was exactly the kind of thing I want more of.
Friend. You gotta write your own comments. It feels so gross to get a response that’s so obviously from an llm, I would rather you not have replied to me at all. I will not be using your app.
Fully understandable, it's an AI minefield out there! I wrote everything except the technical summary of what I'd updated, just so you know...Claude only helped me there to explain what had changed.
Love this idea — just shipped it. PipeStep now records every step you run/skip/shell-into and saves a bash script on quit (pipestep-session-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.sh). Should be useful for reproducing debugging sessions and as a starting point for tests.

I wouldn't used the hell out of this the last time I was beginning a GitHub action.
I'm going to assume you meant "would've" hah. Would love to know how I could improve it!
ENH: record the debugging session to a script for reuse and writing tests
