What

The check that decides whether a value looks like a secret, used to redact environment variables before they are recorded, now recognizes common token prefixes including ghp_-style GitHub tokens, github_pat_, glpat-, Slack xox tokens, sk-, pk-, AKIA, JWTs starting eyJ, ya29. and npm_, plus any string of 20 characters or more mixing letters and digits. It replaces a much narrower earlier scheme.

Evidence

gh[opusr]_|github_pat_|glpat-|xox[abpr]-|sk-|pk-|AKIA|eyJ|ya29

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
