actionify — Plain English to GitHub Actions YAML

Turn natural language into production-ready GitHub Actions workflows instantly. No AI. No API calls. No hallucination risk. Just describe what you want and get valid YAML.

---

How it works

You type in English actionify instantly outputs YAML
───────────────────────── ─────────────────────────────────
"build and test on push" → a complete workflow file ready to commit

actionify uses template matching under the hood — every output is a proven, working GitHub Actions workflow. No LLM means zero hallucination risk and instant response times, entirely client-side.

---

Features

• Zero hallucination — output is always valid, tested YAML (not AI-generated)
• Instant — no API calls, no latency, runs entirely in your browser
• Client-side only — your prompts never leave your machine
• No account required — no sign-up, no API key, no rate limits
• All common workflow templates — Node.js, Python, Docker, cron, matrix builds, conditionals
