GitHub allows an organization to restrict workflows so that they use only actions and reusable workflows available within that organization. When such a policy is enforced, external third-party actions and Marketplace actions can be prevented from running. Custom actions intended for internal reuse should therefore be stored in repositories owned by the organization. GitHub also allows private or internal repositories containing actions to be made accessible to other repositories in the same organization or enterprise. The .github repository has special organization-wide uses, such as workflow templates, but it is not the mandatory distribution location for all custom actions. A third-party repository or the public Marketplace would conflict with an organization-only policy. Therefore, distributing the actions through organization-owned repositories is the appropriate approach.
