Simple workflows and agentics-maintenance.yml are not working outside the GH-AW repo #11079
Description
This workflow https://github.com/githubnext/gh-aw-test/blob/main/.github/workflows/test-claude-create-issue.md?plain=1 created this:
which failed because downloading the setup action failed for workflows outside the GH-AW repo
Error: Can't find 'action.yml', 'action.yaml' or 'Dockerfile' under '/home/runner/work/gh-aw-test/gh-aw-test/actions/setup'. Did you forget to run actions/checkout before running your local action?
The generated lock for the activation job is here, note it's trying to check out the actions folder which exists in the gh-aw repo not this one.

This is likely a similar problem to agentics-maintenance.yml not working outside the repo
