Research direction
Start with the provided GitHub Actions workflow, especially the job-level container and the Tailscale Action step, and reproduce the failure with the example configuration. Trace how the action starts Tailscale in a containerized job and verify the result with the final tailscale status | grep -q hello check. Done means the action connects successfully and the expected device appears in the netmap.
