**Whenever I run a Pull Request or a Push on my repository, CircleCI gives me this problem:**

Hello,

That looks like GitHub Actions config syntax mixed in with CircleCI syntax. I’ve done by best to try and convert it fully to a CircleCI config equivalent.

```auto
version: 2.1

jobs:
  myjob:
    docker:
      - image: cimg/node:14.17.0
    steps:
      - checkout
      - run: yarn add
      - run: yarn run lint:fix

workflows:
  myworkflow:
    jobs:
      - myjob

```
