OS / ENVIRONMENT

ansible-lint version: 6.17.2

This is run on github ci, using github workflows

name: ansible-lint
on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  build:
    name: Ansible Lint # Naming the build is important to use it as a status check
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Run ansible-lint
        uses: ansible/ansible-lint@v6

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

create a github action, following the documentation here: https://ansible.readthedocs.io/projects/lint/installing/#installing-from-source-code

jobs:
  build:
    name: Ansible Lint # Naming the build is important to use it as a status check
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Run ansible-lint
        uses: ansible/ansible-lint@v6

Desired Behavior

The ansible lint action as document should just work.
