Describe issue

I have an issue where a large dictionary is written to GITHUB_OUTPUT. Below a certain size this works fine, above a certain size, the expected variable doesn't get set (with ::set-output:: ).

The linked repo has simple demonstration of this. With 2822 kv pairs in the dict, it works as expected, with 2823, the var is not set.

Test script looks like this:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import json
import os
import sys

length = sys.argv[1] if len(sys.argv) else 0
test_dict = {f"key{i}": f"value{i}" for i in range(int(length))}

github_output = os.environ.get("GITHUB_OUTPUT")
if github_output is not None:
    print(f"Writing config to the github outputs file {github_output}")
    with open(github_output, "a", encoding="utf-8") as wfh:
        wfh.write(f"config={json.dumps(test_dict)}\n")

For 2822 items:

[Test/length-2822]   ✅  Success - Main Run test python script length test (2822) [74.391484ms]
[Test/length-2822]   ⚙  ::set-output:: config={"key0": "value0", ....

For 2823 items:

[Test/length-2823]   ✅  Success - Main Run test python script length test (2823) [74.240597ms]
[Test/length-2823] [DEBUG] skipping post step for 'Checkout code': no action model available

Additional information

I also tried with just strings of various sizes and couldn't replicate the issue.

Below a certain size this works fine, above a certain size, the expected variable doesn't get set (with `::set-output:: `). The linked repo has simple demonstration of this. With 2822 kv pairs in the dict, it works as expected, with 2823, the var is not set. Test script looks like this: ```python #!/usr/bin/env python3 import json import os import sys length = sys.argv[1] if len(sys.argv) else 0 test_dict = {f"key{i}": f"value{i}" for i in
