# BUG: any toJSON with single quotes will cause the echo statements to fail.
# Not sure how to fix this.
#
# Note that the github context includes a token, but it is scrubbed from logs.
# > Before each job begins, GitHub fetches an installation access token for the job.
# > The GITHUB_TOKEN expires when a job finishes or after a maximum of 24 hours.
