Github action failing when running auto shipit

[Snivio]

Im using the following workflow

name: Release

on: [push, workflow_dispatch]

jobs:
  release:
    name: Release
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    permissions:
      contents: read
      issues: read
      packages: write
      pull-requests: write
    #    if: "!contains(github.event.head_commit.message, 'ci skip') && !contains(github.event.head_commit.message, 'skip ci')"
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0

      - name: Prepare repository
        run: git fetch --prune

      - name: Unset header
        run: git config --local --unset http.https://github.com/.extraheader

      - name: Use Node
        uses: actions/setup-node@v3
        with:
          node-version-file: .nvmrc
          registry-url: "https://npm.pkg.github.com"
          scope: "@********"

      - name: Cache node modules
        uses: actions/cache@v1
        with:
          path: node_modules
          key: yarn-deps-${{ hashFiles('yarn.lock', 'package-lock.json', 'package.json') }}
          restore-keys: |
            yarn-deps-${{ hashFiles('yarn.lock', 'package-lock.json', 'package.json') }}

      - name: Create Release
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GH_REPO_PACKAGES_PAT }}
          NODE_AUTH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GH_REPO_PACKAGES_PAT }}
        run: |
          yarn install --frozen-lockfile
          yarn build
          npx auto@11 shipit

but the action fails with this

Error: Running command 'npx' with args [lerna, publish, 1.4.7--canary.119.47fcfe8.0, --dist-tag, canary, --registry, https://registry.npmjs.org/, --force-publish, --yes, --no-git-reset, --no-git-tag-version, --exact, --no-verify-access] failed

any suggestions for different config with auto or lerna

lerna.json

{
  "version": "1.4.6",
  "packages": [
    "packages/*"
  ],
  "npmClient": "yarn",
  "publishConfig": {
    "access": "public"
  },
  "lerna": "2.9.0"
}

and package.json

{
  "name": "amplience",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "private": true,
  "workspaces": [
    "packages/*"
  ],

@Snivio Can you:

1. Share your auto configuration (eg: in .autorc)
2. Can you share the output of just running yarn build?
3. If (2) doesn't work on your local, can you split the last 3 lines in your workflow into individual steps to ascertain the step it really fail?
