I have found inconsistencies between the actions/reference/workflows-and-actions/contexts.md and the actions/reference/workflows-and-actions/reusable-workflows.md pages.

The reusable-workflows.md page defines contexts for jobs.<job_id>.secrets.<secret_id> and jobs.<job_id>.with.<input_id> like so:

## `jobs.<job_id>.with.<input_id>`

[...]

Allowed expression contexts: `github`, and `needs`.

## `jobs.<job_id>.secrets.<secret_id>`

[...]

Allowed expression contexts: `github`, `needs`, and `secrets`.

This seems to match observed behavior that the following using vars, using a reusable workflow that requires a secret, does not work: After testing in a different and cleaner environment, this actually does not match the observed behavior, as the following using vars, using a reusable workflow that requires a secret, does work:

jobs:
  job:
    uses: job.yml
    secrets:
      MY_SECRET: ${{ vars.MY_SECRET }}

Indeed, the contexts.md page defines these contexts like so:

| `jobs.<job_id>.secrets.<secrets_id>` | `github, needs, strategy, matrix, secrets, inputs, vars` | None |
| `jobs.<job_id>.with.<with_id>` | `github, needs, strategy, matrix, inputs, vars` | None |

So I would have expected vars to work in this context, but it does not.

Also while we are at it, note the workflow keys are not consistent: secrets_id vs secret_id, and with_id vs input_id.

Therefore I would suggest to:

• Rename the workflow keys in the contexts.md page to match those in the reusable-workflows.md page,
• Update the "allowed expression contexts" in the reusable-workflows.md page to match what is described in the contexts.md page.
