# act-mcp

> Use this tool when you need to debug and fix failures in GitHub Actions workflows locally, as it provides functionality to list, run, and inspect workflows via act, accepting workflow files as input and outputting debug information and execution results. This enables developers to identify and resolve issues in their workflows through an iterative agent loop. Ideal for use cases where local testing and debugging of GitHub Actions workflows are necessary.
