Thank you for your report. CI_ GITEA_ and GITHUB_ are reserved prefixes for variables.

@techknowlogick Good to know, should be added to the field placeholder, the current is

case-insensitive, alphanumeric characters or underscores only, cannot start with GITEA_ or GITHUB_

This behavior different from secrets. You can add a secret that starts with CI. See:
4e10adc871/services/secrets/secrets.go (L14-L17)
vs

4e10adc871/services/actions/variables.go (L17-L24)

not sure what's the basis for this rule. And there is a bug with this IMO as regex will catch CItesting and citation.
