I need to show a QR code in a terminal (output/logs) this needs to use ASCII or UTF-8 characters. My team makes use of the GitHub app to collaborate, and a QR code in the logs of the jobs will help us quickly scan and jump to a specific job or artifact that is generated during the workflow when we are in the same room.
I am aware of tools that were mentioned in similar questions like QR Code generation in shell / mac terminal but the answer actually does not produce a QR code in the terminal, instead it produces a PNG image you are then supposed to open and view. This is not an option in the CI. While I can make use of the GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY it requires additional steps that need to be added to the workflow and that seems like overkill.
