Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

GitHub Actions: a New Hope in YAML Wasteland
The one thing missing from the action.yml spec is the type of each input parameter. We are currently adding this information in our repository but it would be much better if it could live in your own repository in a action-types.yml file as some nice earlly adopters already do.

GitHub Actions could be so much better
Yep, actionlint is great! I've used it successfully both to lint my own workflows, and to lint third-party workflows for (basic) security issues.
Unfortunately, it can't lint actions themselves, only workflows that call actions[1]. This is a substantial deficiency, especially for users (like me) who write and maintain a decent number of actions.

- Linter for GHA syntax?
