semantic-release: @semantic-release/npm silently failing in Github actions therefore not publishing package

Current behavior

When running through the Github actions every action passes and the tags and release are made but the package.json version isn’t updated and the package isn’t published.

I’ve got the same setup in another project and everything is working as expected

Expected behavior

I’m expecting to have all the tags and releases working (which they are) and the version number in the package.json updated to latest tag and to be published

Environment
