+### Steps on the build page
+
+Gitea shows this whole action as a single step of the job, so the scripts
+report their own steps to `record-app-build` (action `steps`) and the app hub's
+build page lists them while the run is going: status, duration, a one-line
+summary and, for a step that failed, the tail of its output. The step list is
+`PIPELINE_STEPS` in `scripts/lib.sh`, in `action.yml` order (keep the two in
+step); each script marks its step running when it starts and passed, failed or
+skipped when it ends (`step_start` / `step_done`; `fail_build` and `die` fail
+the running step). Set up Node.js is a stock action, so the step before it
+starts it and the step after it ends it.
+
+State lives in a file under `$RUNNER_TEMP` that every step of the job shares,
+so a step that dies still leaves what it wrote. The last step,
+`finish-steps.sh`, runs whatever happened: a step still running failed, steps
+that never started were skipped, and if nothing closed the build record (Set
+up Node.js failed, a script crashed) it closes the run as `failed`, naming the
+step, instead of leaving it "running" until the hub calls it lost. Reporting is
+best effort: posts time out after 20 s, and after the first refused post the
+run stops sending steps; the build itself never waits on or fails because of
+them.
 
 The action never decides whether a build goes live. `record-app-version`'s
 `promote` action does, from the app's `publish_policy` and default branch, and
