Wait-for-secrets is a GitHub Action designed to pause workflow execution until a user manually inputs required secrets via a web interface. It leverages GitHub's OIDC tokens to authenticate with the StepSecurity API, which temporarily stores secret metadata and provides a unique URL for user interaction. The action polls the API until secrets are submitted, then makes them available as outputs for subsequent workflow steps. Key features include optional Slack notifications and configurable timeouts. The architecture is straightforward: a TypeScript-based action compiled via ncc into a single JavaScript file, with core logic separated into utility functions for environment parsing, URL generation, and secret handling.
