RuleBuilder doesn't create a Rule with action type RuleChainActionType.ERROR_ON_FAILURE about rulebook HOT 2 OPEN

I'm facing the exact same issue, it doesn't matter whether I'm setting this in rulebookbuiler or rulebuilder. GolenRule class has a logic where it checks if action type is "STOP_ONFAILURE" and then constructs it. I guess it shouldn't have that "IF" conditon and it should just proceed with creating construction using action type.

Just encountered the same issue. Looks like ERROR_ON_FAILURE currently only works when defining Rules with annotated POJOs using @Rule(ruleChainAction = RuleChainActionType.ERROR_ON_FAILURE).
Quite a deal-breaker for me. I'm currently working around this by post-processing all my rules and setting the private _actionType field using reflection.

I'm using Spring and all my rules are beans, so I can do it like this:

@Bean
static BeanPostProcessor errorOnFailureGoldenRulePostProcessor() {
    Field actionTypeField = FieldUtils.getField(GoldenRule.class, "_actionType");
    ReflectionUtils.makeAccessible(actionTypeField);
    return new BeanPostProcessor() {

        @Override
        public Object postProcessAfterInitialization(Object bean, String beanName) {
            if (bean instanceof GoldenRule<?, ?> goldenRule) {
                ReflectionUtils.setField(actionTypeField, goldenRule, RuleChainActionType.ERROR_ON_FAILURE);
            }
            return bean;
        }
    };
}

This will of course only work if you need all rules to use this action type.
