Scheduling GitHub Actions with cron

What sort of action would be most appropriate for running on a schedule like this?

Anything that you want to run on an interval that doesn't have a pre-existing event. For example, if you can run your action on push, then you shouldn't be scheduling it. Here's a couple examples of interesting schedulable actions:

• Every hour, fetch data from remote sources and store it locally, such as a slow CMS, for a static site build
• Every day at 10am, move all posts from draft to published that are marked to be published that day. Pushing back to the repo triggers a build-and-deploy
• Nightly releases of your library or product. Building at 8pm every night and releasing on an alpha or nightly branch.
• Once a week, scan activity on the repo and send an email with a digest of the merged PRs or release notes

Wow, I had to provision a server only for running crons on GitHub since Actions didn't have that. And I didn't get to know when they introduced it. This will save me so much time and money. Thank you! 👌

Do you have this one handy? Would love to check it out.
