I've created several custom actions for standard collaboration sites and I'm sure I used Jeff Potts' guide (Creating Custom Actions in Alfresco | ECMArchitect | Alfresco Developer Tutorials) to learn how do make the first one but I do

I believe I've found the answer to my own problem. The DocLibActions evaluator was correct but I needed the right actionGroup to add the action to which was rm-records-details in my case. Here's a contrived example that adds an action to the list for a record:

<config evaluator="string-compare" condition="DocLibActions">
    <actions>
        <action icon="folder-edit-metadata"
                id="gry-parent-folders"
                label="actions.grey-unpublish-action.title"
                type="link">
            <param name="href">/alfresco/s/reports/parent-nodes</param>
            <param name="target">_blank</param>
        </action>
    </actions>
    <actionGroups>
        <actionGroup id="rm-record-details">
            <action index="508" id="gry-parent-folders" />
        </actionGroup>
    </actionGroups>
</config>

I found the list of action groups in the share config for RM:

records-management/rm-share-config.xml at master · Alfresco/records-management · GitHub
