The "Clear Python cache" step runs find from the repo root, which traverses .venv/. The previous step (action-setup-venv) just restored the venv from cache including compiled bytecode. Deleting .venv/**/*.pyc forces Python to recompile every installed package on first import, undermining the venv cache.

So in
action.ymlwe have two steps where we first:action-setup-venv)and then immediately after
Deleting these forces Python to recompile every installed package on first import during every CI run, undermining the purpose of the venv cache.
We add
-not -path './.venv/*'to bothfindcommands so we only clear pycache dirs and not the venv.
