 **Date**: 2021-06-10
 **Status**: Accepted
 ## Context
 We released [composite run steps](https://github.com/actions/runner/pull/554) last year which started our journey of reusing steps across different workflow files. To continue that journey, we want to expand composite run steps into composite actions.
 We want to support the `uses` steps from workflows in composite actions, including:
  - Container actions
  - Javascript actions
  - Other Composite actions (up to a limit of course!)
  - The pre and post steps these actions can generate
 ## Guiding Principles
 - Composite Actions should function as a single step or action, no matter how many steps it is composed of or how many levels of recursion it has
  - In the future we may add a configurable option to make this no longer the case
 - A workflow author should not need to understand the inner workings of a composite action in order to use it
 - Composite actions should leverage inputs to get values they need, they will not have full access to the `context` objects. The secrets context will **not** be available to composite actions, users will need to pass these values in as an input.
 - Other Actions should **just work** inside a composite action, without any code changes
 ## Decisions
 ### Composite Recursion Limit
 - We will start with supporting a recursion limit of `10` composite actions deep
 - We are free to bump this limit in the future, the code will be written to just require updating a variable. If the graph evaluates beyond the recursion limit, the job will fail in the pre-job phase (The `Set up job` step).
 - A composite actions interface is its inputs and outputs, nothing else is carried over when invoking recursively.
 ### Pre/Post Steps in nested Actions
 - We do not plan on adding the ability to configure a customizable pre or post step for composite actions at this time. However, we will execute the pre and post steps of any actions referenced in a composite action.
 - Composite actions will generate a single pre-step and post-step for the entire composite action, even if there are multiple pre-steps and post-steps in the referenced actions.
  - These steps will execute following the same ordering rules we have today, first to run has their pre step run first and their post step run last.
  - For example, if you had a composite action with two pre steps and two posts steps:
  ```
  - uses: action1
  - uses: composite1
  - uses: action2
  ```
  The order of execution would be:
  ```
  - prestep-action1
  - prestep-composite1
    - prestep-composite1-first-action-referenced
    - prestep-composite1-second-action-referenced
  - prestep-action2
  - the job steps
  - poststep-action2
  - poststep-composite1
    - poststep-composite1-the-second-action-referenced
    - poststep-composite1-first-action-referenced
  - poststep-action1
  ```
 #### Set-state
 - While the composite action has an individual combined pre/post action, the `set-state` command will not be shared.
 - If the `set-state` command is used during a composite step, only the action that originally called `set-state` will have access to the env variable during the post run step.
  - This prevents multiple actions that set the same state from interfering with the execution of another action's post step.
 ### Resolve Action Endpoint changes
 - The resolve actions endpoint will now validate policy to ensure that the given workflow run has access to download that action.
  - Older GHES/GHAE customers with newer runners will be locked out of composite uses steps until they upgrade their instance.
 ### Local actions
 - Local actions will expand the tree, perform policy checks, and download actions Just in Time when the step is running.
 - Like current local actions, we will not support presteps. If an action is running local, by the time we know that, the time to run presteps have already passed.
 ### If, continue-on-error, timeout-minutes - Not being considered at this time
 - `if`, `continue-on-error`, `timeout-minutes` could be supported in composite run/uses steps. These values were not originally supported in our composite run steps implementation.
  - Browsing the community forums and runner repo, there hasn't been a lot of noise asking for these features, so we will hold off on them.
 - These values passed as input into the composite action will **not** be carried over as input into the individual steps the composite action runs.
 ### Defaults - Not being considered at this time
 - In actions, we have the idea of [defaults](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#defaultsrun) , which allow you to specify a shell and working directory in one location, rather then on each step.
 - However, `shell` is currently required in composite run steps
  - In regular run steps, it is optional, and defaults to a different value based on the OS.
 - We want to prioritize the right experience for the consumer, and make the action author continue to explicitly set these values. We can consider improving this experience in the future.
 ## Consequences
 - Workflows are now more reusable across multiple workflow files
 - Composite actions implement most of the existing workflow run steps, with room to expand these in the future
 - Feature flags will control this rollout

 ## Features
- Use GITHUB_TOKEN for ghcr.io containers if credentials are not provided (#990)
+- Adds support for composite actions if the server supports it (#1222)
 - Adds `generateIdTokenUri` to env variables for actions (#1234)
 ## Bugs
- Do not trucate error message from template evaluation (#1038)
+- Prefer higher `libicu` versions in `installDependencies.sh` (#1228)
 - Make FileShare ReadWrite (#1033)
 - Mask secrets with double-quotes when passed to docker command line (#1002)
 - Delete script files before replacing during update (#984)
 ## Misc
 - Send step telemetry to server on JobCompletion (#1229)
 - Print out the resolved SHA for each downloaded action (#1233)
 ## Windows x64
 We recommend configuring the runner in a root folder of the Windows drive (e.g. "C:\actions-runner"). This will help avoid issues related to service identity folder permissions and long file path restrictions on Windows.
