      - name: Create snake
        uses: Platane/snk@v3
        with:
          # github user name to read the contribution graph from (**required**)
          # using action context var `github.repository_owner` or specified user
          github_user_name: USERNAME-HERE

          # list of files to generate.
          # one file per line. Each output can be customized with options as query string.
          #
          #  supported options:
          #  - palette:     A preset of color, one of [github, github-dark, github-light]

          #                 The first one is 0 contribution, then it goes from the low contribution to the highest.
          #                 Exactly 5 colors are expected.
