Description
Create a separate repo where you allow actions to run, so you can get the secret out. The idea would be that you have a challenge with a forkable action+Secret, so anyone forking this repository should get access to the given secret.
TODO:
- Have the Github secret forkable
- Create a github action using it
- Create the actual challenge with the secret encrypted as part of the java code (See contributing.md on how to create the challenge)

Research direction
Start with contributing.md to understand how to create the challenge, then review the requirements for the separate repository, forkable GitHub secret, and GitHub Action. Done means the secret is available to forks, the Action uses it, and the challenge includes the encrypted secret in the Java code.
