 # test-ci
 
+Test repository for validating **Gitea Actions** CI/CD pipelines.
+
+## Overview
+
+This repo contains a simple workflow used to verify that the `sasquatch-runner` (powered by [act_runner](https://gitea.com/gitea/act_runner)) is correctly registered and executing jobs.
+
+## Workflow
+
+The included workflow triggers on push and runs a basic validation step to confirm the runner picks up and completes the job successfully.
