 If PostgreSQL is not reachable, tests fail fast at startup.
+
+#### 3) Run CI locally with `act`
+
+Run the GitHub Actions test workflow locally with [`act`](https://github.com/nektos/act):
+
+On macOS, install `act` with Homebrew:
+
+```bash
+brew install act
+```
+
+```bash
+make test-act
+```
+
+Useful overrides for local runs:
+
+```bash
+# Refresh images explicitly when needed
+make test-act ACT_PULL=true
+
+# Match GitHub runner architecture on Apple Silicon (slower)
+make test-act ACT_CONTAINER_ARCH=linux/amd64
+```
