Github Actions SSH Connection fails

I’ve set up Cloudflared on my server with the following config:

tunnel: footlab-pi
credentials-file: /etc/cloudflared/e894a30f-3b76-44e1-a530-665abf34a062.json

ingress:
  - hostname: footlab.uk
    service: https://proxy:443
    originRequest:
      originServerName: footlab.uk
  - hostname: ssh.footlab.uk
    service: ssh://host.docker.internal:22
  - service: http_status:404

tunnel: footlab-pi
