## What it is
A Rust CLI and TUI tool for validating and executing GitHub Actions workflows locally before pushing to GitHub. It supports Docker, Podman, and sandboxed emulation runtimes, plus workflow validation, matrix builds, and GitLab CI triggering.

## Use cases
- validate github actions workflow files locally
- run ci workflows on my machine before pushing
- test github actions without pushing commits
- debug failing github actions jobs locally
- lint and check workflow yaml syntax
- run a single github actions job locally
- trigger workflow_dispatch remotely

## When to choose
- you want to catch workflow syntax and structure errors before pushing
- you need to iterate on CI workflows without waiting for GitHub runners
- you want a terminal UI to inspect workflow DAGs, logs, and job dependencies
- you need matrix builds, reusable workflows, or expression evaluation locally

## When to avoid
- your workflows rely on service containers, concurrency groups, or encrypted secrets
- you need to run windows or macOS runner jobs faithfully
- you need a full GitHub Actions-compatible runner like act with broad action support
- you need remote triggering of events other than workflow_dispatch
