There could be an additional step Contexts info before Setup job where all available contexts are displayed in full. Figuring out what is available depending on the workflow being run is entirely dependent on the Forgejo logic. Documenting the content of properly is a daunting task.

A step can be added to a job with:

run: |
   cat <<'EOF'
   toJSON(github.event)
   EOF

and this is likely most often what people end up doing. Some jobs even have a permanently activated step that shows that information so that it does not need to be added.
