# nsc github job describe

Show details for a specific GitHub Actions job.

`nsc github job describe` prints the full details of a single GitHub Actions job, identified by its numeric job ID. The output includes the repository, workflow, job name, status, and timing, along with the runner it executed on — including the instance ID, container name, and runner name.

Pass `-o json` to get a machine-readable representation. Use [nsc github job list](/docs/reference/cli/github-job-list) to find job IDs.

The `job` command is also available under its previous name `jobs`.

```bash theme={null}
nsc github job describe <job-id> [flags]
