Describe the bug
When I attempt to run two steps in a run that are both pwsh which run npx playwright test, I get the following in the second setp:
Error: EPIPE: broken pipe, write

Here is my second test step (the previous one is very similar):

exit $BOOTSTRAP_EXIT_CODE
}
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Unfortunately, I think running my workflow may be required. If you can see it, here is a link to a failed run:
https://github.com/posit-dev/positron/actions/runs/15593387347/job/43917821234?pr=8027#step:23:48
Expected behavior
Should be possible to use pwsh steps to run two playwright test steps in a row.
It would be great if I could just fix this with a pin, but I am using 8x:
