action-tmate
Debug your GitHub Actions via SSH by using tmate to get access to the runner system itself.
I use tmate[1] to get a shell on the worker when I need to debug things interactively. Also act[2] lets you run a decent approximation of your actions locally. Still agree that it should be easier and not require third-party tools/actions, though.
