Was some mix of decoupling / parallelizing the Actions service considered?

I believe the value of dogfooding would be immense. Not only could you become the customer (massive reduction to the deploy/measure feedback loop), but it would be a key marketing move.

On top of that, the GUI that will now require critical care and development is essentially a clone of what is offered by Github Actions.

Yes there was. The change would have been quite a lot to do at once, and we aren't ready to safely add that circular dependency yet. We aren't done on this path, and this certainly won't be the last iteration. I suspect that iteration will come at some point after we can figure out the circular dependency issue.

It also makes sense internally. Our actions team is much larger than the team that manages the project I wrote/lead, so it also makes logistical sense IMO

We also started before the CD product was ready on actions and we directly influenced it, so yea haha
