How can GitHub Actions encrypted secrets be used in if: conditionals within a workflow job?

Set the encrypted secret as a job-level environment variable and then reference the environment variable within the conditional statement.

Create a job dependency that exposes the encrypted secret as a job output, which can then be leveraged in a subsequent dependent job.

Use the secrets context within the conditional statement, e.g. ${{ secrets.MySuperSecret }}.

Use a workflow command to expose the encrypted secret via a step's output parameter and then use the step output in the job's if: conditional.
