Description

Hello, I have encountered an error when trying to upload an artifact.

In my .env I have Artifact path setup:
```
LOCAL_ACTION_WORKSPACE="/tmp"
LOCAL_ACTION_ARTIFACT_PATH="/tmp/artifacts"
GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY="/tmp/summary.md"
```

In my code I use artifact upload in an uncomplicated way (Hopefully):
```
let batchStatus: CTRFReport
do {
core.info('Waiting for test batch to finish.')
await sleep(batchWaitTimeout)
batchStatus = await getBatchStatus(apiUrl, apiKey, batchId)
core.debug(JSON.stringify(batchStatus))
} while (testBatchStillRunning(batchStatus))

core.setOutput('batchId', batchId)
await writeFile(batchStatusFilepath, JSON.stringify(batchStatus), 'utf-8')
await artifact.uploadArtifact('batch-status', [batchStatusFilepath], '.')
```

But when I run my action via `npx @github/local-action . src/main.ts .env`
I get the following error.
```
Artifact name is valid!
Root directory input is valid!
/home/vhodina/git/run/node_modules/@actions/artifact/lib/internal/shared/config.js:18
throw new Error('Unable to get the ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN env variable');
^

```

I'm not sure if the error is caused by local-action or my setup.
I've tried defining the `ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN` in .env, but that ends up with the promise failing with different error.

The whole action is available at https://github.com/aiva-actions/run
