In some regions, connecting to github.com may not be as smooth.

So every time we using uses: method, it is not a good way to fetch and pull the current action content, and I think the action tag will also be rarely updated.

We can add a configurable option in OfflineMode to control it, setting the default value to false, so this will not affect other users.

this pull code depend on act OfflineMode act pull #2128

Are there any downsides to enabling this by default? (https://gitea.com/gitea/act_runner/issues/556#issuecomment-824915 has some context)

It seems good to me to only pull action source only once per workflow instead of once per step.

Yes the described behavior makes sense and would probably better than the current default

To be honest only "when not present" (action offline mode e.g. this pr adds a flag) and "always" (current / no flag to alter act) are implemented

Both are extrems

This means you might get less updates than you expect as every tag or branch or tag is downloaded exactly once in offline mode and that is not scoped to workflows or anthing else
