Some minor questions, but lgtm!

In the example in the linked page, it also has a condition like && github.repository == 'owner/my_repo'. I'm not certain, but I think without it, this might also run on peoples forks - is that desirable? Should there be a similar filter here?

Is this step doing anything? It looks like it would be used if you need to check the metadata, but its outputs are not used in further steps (it looks like one of GH's examples also does this, though some others do use the outputs).
