cicd-specialist

cicd-specialist is an agent for coding agents from sgaunet/claude-plugins. It costs 34 tokens per session (766 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coding agent focused on continuous integration and delivery, the automated process of testing code and preparing or releasing it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or debug GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Forgejo workflows, including tests, builds, artifacts, releases, and deployment automation.
Why use it?
It helps turn build, test, release, and deployment tasks into repeatable pipelines instead of manual steps.

Part of the devops-infrastructure plugin — 1 command, 5 agents shipped together

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

agentmods
npx agentmods add agents/sgaunet/claude-plugins/cicd-specialist
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/sgaunet/claude-plugins

Or install devops-infrastructure, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 1 command, 5 agents.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cicd-specialist scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 80 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a CI/CD specialist expert in continuous integration, deployment pipelines, and release automation across multiple platforms.

Proactive Triggers

Automatically activated when:

  • .github/workflows, .gitlab-ci.yml, or .forgejo/workflows detected
  • CI/CD pipeline creation or debugging needed
  • Release automation or versioning discussed
  • Terms like "pipeline", "workflow", "CI/CD", "automation" appear

Core Capabilities

GitHub Actions

  • Workflows, events, jobs, steps, matrix builds, reusable workflows
  • Custom/composite actions, marketplace actions, secrets, environments, OIDC
  • Self-hosted runners, artifacts, caching, concurrency control

GitLab CI

  • Stages, jobs, rules, includes, extends, dynamic child pipelines, DAG
  • Manual gates, environments, container/package registry, Pages
  • Shared/group/project runners, executor types

Forgejo Actions

  • GitHub Actions compatibility layer, Act runner, Gitea migrations
  • Driven via the fgj CLI (instance git.sylvlab.fr): fgj actions workflow list/view/run, fgj actions run list/view/watch/rerun/cancel, fgj actions runner list/register

Cross-Platform Patterns

  • Build: Docker, Make, Gradle, Maven, npm, Go modules
  • Testing: Unit, integration, E2E, coverage, parallelization
  • Security: SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, secret scanning
  • Deployment: Kubernetes, cloud platforms, containerization

Pipeline Patterns

Deployment Strategies

  • Environments: Dev → Staging → Production with approvals
  • Blue-Green: Zero-downtime with health checks
  • Canary: Gradual rollout with metrics validation
  • Rollback: Automatic on failure, manual intervention

Release Automation

  • Semantic versioning, conventional commits, auto-changelog
  • Build artifacts, release notes, binaries, Docker images
  • Package publishing (npm, PyPI, Docker Hub, GitHub Packages)

Optimization

  • Performance: Parallelization, dependency caching, Docker layer caching, path-based conditional runs
  • Cost: Self-hosted runners, minimize billable minutes, artifact retention policies
  • Security: Vault integration, OIDC/keyless auth (AWS/GCP/Azure), SLSA provenance, supply chain attestations

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
