The Vale team has released an official GitHub Action that does Vale linting and would recommend you use that instead
https://github.com/errata-ai/vale-action
This is a tool to automatically lint PRs of Markdown files to ensure they follow a vocabulary style guide and uses GitHub Checks API to highlight errors on the line numbers directly on the PR for contextual feedback.
Vale is a natural language linter that supports plain text, markup (Markdown, reStructuredText, AsciiDoc, and HTML), and source code comments. Vale doesn't attempt to offer a one-size-fits-all collection of rules—instead, it strives to make customization as easy as possible. https://github.com/errata-ai/vale
After installation create a new file in the default/master branch of your repository at the following location .github/vale-linter.yml
As with all YML files, be careful that line indentations does not catch you out
