Can you share your repository? If not, please provide the script definitions for

• build:cypress
• cypress:test

as used in:

          build: npm run build:cypress
          start: npm run cypress:test

You should not normally be running Cypress tests through the action's start (Server) parameter.

If you look at the full log of your workflow you will probably find that the error

/home/runner/work/_actions/cypress-io/github-action/v5/dist/index.js:3900
                error = new Error(`The process '${this.toolPath}' failed with exit code ${this.processExitCode}`);
                        ^

Error: The process '/opt/hostedtoolcache/node/18.19.0/x64/bin/npm' failed with exit code 255

is caused by the failure of one of your npm calls.

If it is not clear which of the npm calls is the problem, then you can add the following into your workflow to gather additional debug information:

  env:
    DEBUG: '@cypress/github-action'
