You can add custom apt repository by modifying files under /etc/apt e.g.:

  - action: run
    description: Add custom apt sources
    command: echo "deb http://site.example.com/debian distribution component1 component2 component3" >> ${ROOTDIR}/etc/apt/sources.list

You can also use overlay actions to add new files into e.g. /etc/apt/sources.list.d as appropriate. Hope that helps.
