-**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)
+
 ## Bugs
 
-- Fixed a bug where composite actions did not respect `continue-on-error` (#1238)
-- Fixed a bug where composite actions post steps did not have the correct step context (#1243)
+- Do not trucate error message from template evaluation (#1038)
+- 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
 
-- Correctly finish Job when worker crashes with IO Exceptions (#1239)
 
 ## 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.
