Explanation
In GitHub Actions workflow syntax, environment variables are declared using the env: keyword, followed by key-value pairs. The correct syntax is:
env:
MY_VARIABLE: my-value
The env: key is the official GitHub Actions YAML key for defining environment variables at the workflow, job, or step level. Options using var: (A, C) or environment: (B, E) are not valid GitHub Actions syntax for defining environment variables. environment: is used to specify deployment environments, not variable definitions.
