Action is failing consistently for the past few weeks, regardless of when it's ran or what other tasks are ongoing.

Skipping recent artifact (id: 216039564, name: uberjar).

The specific workflow we're using:

name: Remove old artifacts
on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '0 22 * * *'
jobs:
  remove-old-artifacts:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    timeout-minutes: 10

    steps:
      - name: Remove old artifacts
        uses: c-hive/gha-remove-artifacts@v1
        with:
          age: '1 day'
          skip-tags: true
          skip-recent: 5

Perhaps there has been a change to secondary rate limits?
