Open Source LabVIEW Actions unifies LabVIEW CI/CD scripts behind a single PowerShell dispatcher. Most users should call the adapter-specific GitHub Actions (for example run-unit-tests) directly in workflows. The dispatcher script (actions/Invoke-OSAction.ps1) remains available for CLI scenarios. Adapter implementations live under scripts, and each wrapper resides in its own folder at the repository root. Discovery commands (-ListActions and -Describe) and standard exit codes are preserved, and -DryRun is supported for safe previews on Windows or Linux runners with LabVIEW and g-cli available.
