Research direction
The issue does not name files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the workflow-run sidebar rendering and the extension configuration declarations, then trace how runs are fetched and displayed. Done means a setting such as github-actions.workflows.limit restricts each workflow to its latest configured number of runs.

Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The current list of workflow runs in the sidebar can be very long and cluttered. I often only care about the most recent runs (e.g., the last 3) to check their status quickly.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like a configuration setting (e.g., github-actions.workflows.limit) that allows me to define the number of latest runs shown per workflow in the sidebar. For example, setting it to 3 would only show the 3 most recent runs.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently, I have to scroll through a long list of history which is distracting.
Additional context
This would help keep the UI clean and focused on immediate feedback.
