 ### Requirements
 
-This action uses [`jq`](https://github.com/jqlang/jq) to parse JSON.
-`jq` is installed by default in GitHub-hosted runners.
-[`dcarbone/install-jq-action`](https://github.com/dcarbone/install-jq-action) is used to check that `jq` is available and install it if not.
-**Note:** installing `jq` with `dcarbone/install-jq-action` requires that curl is available; this may not be the case in custom containers.
+- `jq`: This action uses [`jq`](https://github.com/jqlang/jq) to parse JSON. For GitHub-hosted runners, `jq` is installed by default. On self-hosted runners and custom containers, if `jq` is not already available, this action will automatically use [`dcarbone/install-jq-action`](https://github.com/dcarbone/install-jq-action) to install `jq` (Note: `dcarbone/install-jq-action` requires that `curl` is installed; this may not always be the case in custom containers and self-hosted runners).
+- `bash`: This action requires `bash`. For GitHub-hosted runners `bash` is installed by default. Self-hosted runners will need to ensure that `bash` is installed and available on the `PATH`.
