Actual result

Running biome ci in GHA will always produce errors even when the formatter logs Checked 2 files in 1572µs. No fixes needed.. However, running biome ci locally does not see any errors.

Playground link

Instead of providing a playground which does not support JSON formatting, you should clone this public repo I created to reproduce the error.

[Sec-ant]

I don't think this is a bug of Biome.

In your workflow there's a command pnpm pkg delete scripts.postinstall which will format the package.json file in a way that each of the array entry is put into a separated line. And Biome later will in turn put them into a single line according to the lineWidth option.

You can add an override entry for the package.json file to set the lineWidth to 1 so the behavior of the Biome formatter aligns with the pnpm pkg ... command. Or you can ignore the file.
