GitHub Annotation Limits ( 10 Errors, 10 Warnings) #226

@aniaq

Description

@aniaq

The GitHub annotations system enforces a hard limit of 10 errors/warnings per check run, which can create challenges when running comprehensive checks with a higher number of warnings. This limitation can hinder effective debugging and reviewing for larger projects.

When running the plugin-check-action, only the first 10 errors/ warnings are displayed as annotations. This might lead to missing other important errors/warnings unless users manually check the logs or artifacts for detailed output.

Possible workarounds:

  1. Combine multiple errors/warnings into a single annotation message to stay within the 10 error /warning limit while still providing meaningful feedback.
  2. Produce an artifact (e.g., HTML or JSON file) containing a full report of all errors / warnings. Users can download this file for in-depth analysis.

Would it make sense to implement one of these workarounds in this action?

Reference: Extremely low annotation limit Thank you for considering this improvement!
