Full Explanation
The workflow_dispatch trigger supports four input types: string (free text), boolean (checkbox), number (numeric input), and choice (dropdown with predefined options). The 'choice' type requires an 'options:' list. 'select' is not a valid GitHub Actions input type. This is commonly used for deployment targets like 'dev', 'staging', 'production'.
