The simplest idea is to just do this:
my $action = (split '/', $self->query->path_info)[1];
If you are doing path based dispatching have you looked at the Routes Plugin
( http://search.cpan.org/dist/CGI-Application-Plugin-Routes/ )
or the path_info option to mode_param (
http://search.cpan.org/dist/CGI-Application/lib/CGI/Application.pm#mode_param())?
These options can make your life easier by setting the runmode (action) from
the information in the path_info and then you
can get the name of the current action via $self->current_run_mode.
