Matrix testing images and recommendations with or without base images

[Tsingis]

What is the best / recommended approach with recommendations and matrix testing when some images might not have base images which results into image has no base image exit and non-zero exit code?

Currently I've split cves and recommendations to own steps as follows:

- name: Image CVEs
  uses: docker/scout-action@f8c776824083494ab0d56b8105ba2ca85c86e4de # v1.18.2
  with:
    command: cves
    image: ${{ vars.IMAGE }}
    only-severities: ${{ inputs.severities || 'critical,high' }}
    only-fixed: true
    summary: true
    format: json
    exit-code: true
- name: Image recommendations
  uses: docker/scout-action@f8c776824083494ab0d56b8105ba2ca85c86e4de # v1.18.2
  continue-on-error: true
  with:
    command: recommendations
    image: ${{ vars.IMAGE }}
    only-severities: ${{ inputs.severities || 'critical,high' }}
    only-fixed: true
    summary: true
    format: json
