redirect_circleci_artifacts.yml keeps failing

[yarikoptic]

I keep receiving notifications that https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-specification/blob/master/.github/workflows/redirect_circleci_artifacts.yml is failing, and indeed looking at https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-specification/actions/workflows/redirect_circleci_artifacts.yml shows them all red and sample output is

I am also puzzled by this. It's almost as if the GitHub action is building old PRs piece by piece ... And it's at 590 something now. You can see that by checking the individual action runs...

@larsoner have you ever experienced this with the circleci artifact redirector? Or are you also puzzled? :-)

This stuff:

      - name: Check the URL
        run: |
          curl --fail ${{ steps.step1.outputs.url }} | grep $GITHUB_SHA

shouldn't be necessary, this is more of a sanity check. You shouldn't need it
