-# set-default-labels
-
-The `set-default-labels` reusable action is located at [`.github/workflows/set-default-labels.yml`](https://github.com/mdn/workflows/tree/main/.github/workflows/set-default-labels.yml).
-
-This reusable action depends on the following actions:
-
-- [checkout](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/checkout)
-- [lannonbr/issue-label-manager-action](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/issue-label-manager-action)
-
-## Inputs
-
-The action has the following inputs:
-
-### Required inputs
-
-#### target-repo
-
-Specify the target repository this action should run on. This is used to prevent actions from running on repositories other than the target repository. For example, specifying a `target-repo` of `mdn/workflows` will prevent the action from running on forks of `mdn/workflows`.
-
-- This `input` is required. (`type:string`)
-
-### Optional inputs
-
-#### should-delete-labels
-
-This is an optional `boolean` input that is `false` by default. If set to `true`, the action will delete any existing labels that are not listed in the JSON file mentioned previously.
-
-## Usage
-
-In the repository that will call this action, you will need to create the following file: `.github/labels.json`. The content of the file can be something like the following:
-
-```json
-[
-  {
-    "name": "bug",
-    "color": "#d73a4a",
-    "description": "something isn’t working"
-  },
-  {
-    "name": "chore",
-    "color": "#fef2c0",
-    "description": "keeping the lights on"
-  }
-]
-```
-
-You can find more details about the above on the [issue-label-manager-action documentation](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/issue-label-manager-action#issue-label-manager-action). The next item you need to create in the repository that will call this action, is a workflow file. You can name the file `.github/workflows/set-default-labels.yml` and add the following content:
-
-### With defaults
-
-```yml
-name: set-default-labels
-on: [workflow_dispatch]
-
-jobs:
-  set-default-labels:
-    uses: mdn/workflows/.github/workflows/set-default-labels.yml@main
-    with:
-      target-repo: "mdn/workflows"
-```
-
-### Overriding some defaults
-
-```yml
-name: set-default-labels
-on: [workflow_dispatch]
-
-jobs:
-  set-default-labels:
-    uses: mdn/workflows/.github/workflows/set-default-labels.yml@main
-    with:
-      target-repo: "mdn/workflows"
-      should-delete-labels: true
-```
-
-Because of the nature of this action, it must be run manually. You can learn more about [manually running actions on GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/managing-workflow-runs/manually-running-a-workflow).
