How can I run specific jobs in a GitHub Actions YAML workflow?

I'm trying to compile a 3rd party project and the project author provided a YAML file that outlines various GitHub Actions jobs for different environments. The file includes jobs for Windows, Linux, and formatting. However, I'm new to YAML and Docker, and I'm not sure how to execute or trigger a specific element (like a particular job or set of steps such as test-windows or test-linux).

I understand that YAML files can be used with Docker in some contexts, but this file appears to be a GitHub Actions workflow. How can I instruct it to run a certain job or step?

Below is an excerpt from the YAML file:

          sudo apt update
          sudo apt install clang-format-17
          pip install black

      - name: Check C++ formatting
        run: |
          python tools/format.py -c

      - name: Check Python formatting
        if: '!cancelled()'
        run: |
          python -m black tools/* --check --color --diff -l 100

I would appreciate guidance on how these jobs or steps can be triggered, either manually or locally, and what tools or configurations might be needed. Thanks!
