no-icon-file-extension-in-template-icon-name
Rule catalog ID: R063
Targeted pattern scopeโ
iconName in workflow-template properties metadata.
What this rule reportsโ
Reports iconName values ending in .svg.
Why this rule existsโ
Template icon names should be bare icon identifiers, not filenames with extensions.
โ Incorrectโ
{ "iconName": "workflow.svg" }
โ Correctโ
{ "iconName": "workflow" }
Behavior and migration notesโ
The autofixer removes a trailing .svg suffix from iconName. It does not try to normalize any other part of the value, so path segments or different file extensions are still left for other rules or manual review.
Additional examplesโ
For larger repositories, this rule is often enabled together with one of the published presets so violations are caught in pull requests before workflow changes are merged.
ESLint flat config exampleโ
import githubActions from "eslint-plugin-github-actions-2";
export default [
{
files: ["**/*.{yml,yaml}"],
plugins: {
"github-actions": githubActions,
},
rules: {
"github-actions/no-icon-file-extension-in-template-icon-name": "error",
},
},
];
When not to use itโ
You can disable this rule when its policy does not match your repository standards, or when equivalent enforcement is already handled by another policy tool.
