• The cron expression extraction might fail if the expression is not enclosed in single quotes. Ensure that the cron expression is correctly extracted.

cron=$(grep -A1 "schedule:" "$workflow" | grep "cron:" | cut -d"'" -f2)

.github/workflows/update-docs.yaml:128

• Using ${{ github.ref_name }} for the base branch might not work as intended if the workflow is triggered by a push to a branch other than main or dev. Consider using a fixed base branch or a more reliable method to determine the base branch.

base: ${{ github.ref_name }}

• The cron schedule extraction is incorrect. It should be fixed to properly display the schedule.

- ⏰ Scheduled: "" -f2)

workflows_doc.md:29

• The schedule string is empty. If the workflow is not scheduled, it should be explicitly stated as 'No schedule'.

- ⏰ Scheduled: ""

.github/workflows/build-check.yaml:130

• [nitpick] The error message should provide more context, such as 'No ISO file found after build process.'

echo '::error::No ISO file found'

.github/workflows/build-check.yaml:133

• [nitpick] The error message should provide more context, such as 'Multiple ISO files found in the output directory.'

echo '::error::Multiple ISO files found'

.github/workflows/build-check.yaml:142

• [nitpick] The error message should provide more context, such as 'ISO file size is too small: $(($size / 1024 / 1024))MB. Minimum required size is 500MB.'

echo "::error::ISO file too small: \$((\$size / 1024 / 1024))MB"

The command is missing the --noconfirm flag, which could cause it to hang if it prompts for user input. Add --noconfirm to the command.

Suggested change

	docker exec arch-container pacman -Sy
	docker exec arch-container pacman -Sy --noconfirm

The cut -d: -f2- command might not handle multi-line descriptions correctly. Consider using a more robust method to extract the full description.

Suggested change

	desc=$(docker exec arch-container bash -c "pacman -Si $pkg 2>/dev/null | grep Description | cut -d: -f2- || echo 'No description available'")
	desc=$(docker exec arch-container bash -c "pacman -Si $pkg 2>/dev/null | awk -F': ' '/^Description/ {desc=substr($0, index($0,$2)); while(getline && $1 !~ /^[a-zA-Z]/) desc=desc"\n"$0; print desc}' || echo 'No description available')"
