pipeline-operations

pipeline-operations is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from acquia/acquia-skills. It costs 45 tokens per session (3,305 once invoked), scanned D, original, MIT.

A guide for using Acquia Pipelines CLI to manage CI/CD jobs. CI/CD is automated software building, testing, and delivery; a pipeline is the sequence that performs those steps.

In plain words
What is it for?
For triggering builds, checking or streaming pipeline logs, terminating running jobs, encrypting pipeline variables, and connecting a GitHub repository.
Why use it?
It helps check job status and logs, start or stop builds, and manage pipeline settings with the CLI intended for those operations. Starting a build happens immediately, so the guide requires checking the application and branch first.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is See **[Getting Started](../getting-started/SKILL.md)** for installation, authentication, and finding your application ID..

Good fit For triggering builds, checking or streaming pipeline logs, terminating running jobs, encrypting pipeline variables, and connecting a GitHub repository.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 D, and why

pipeline-operations scanned grade D with 3 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 11d 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

sudo mv pipelines /usr/local/bin/pipelines

Reaches for credential fileshighPrivilege escalation

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

Pipeline Operations with Acquia Pipelines CLI

Use when:

  • Triggering a pipeline build
  • Checking pipeline job status or streaming logs
  • Terminating a running job
  • Encrypting pipeline variables or connecting GitHub

Use the Pipelines CLI to trigger, monitor, and manage CI/CD pipeline jobs on Acquia Cloud.

See Getting Started for installation, authentication, and finding your application ID.


Starting a Pipeline Job

Important: pipelines start fires immediately — there is no confirmation prompt. Verify your application ID and target branch before running.

Verify before starting

# Confirm the application ID
pipelines list-applications

# Check whether a job is already running on the branch
pipelines status --application-id=1g2i3b4b5o6u7s --job-id=latest

Proceed with start only after confirming the correct application and branch.

Start for the current branch

Run from inside your git repository:

pipelines start --application-id=1g2i3b4b5o6u7s

The CLI detects the current branch automatically.

Start for a specific branch

pipelines start \
  --application-id=1g2i3b4b5o6u7s \
  --vcs-path=feature/my-branch

Start and write artifact to a deploy branch

pipelines start \
  --application-id=1g2i3b4b5o6u7s \
  --vcs-path=feature/my-branch \
  --deploy-vcs-path=deploy/my-branch

The build artifact is pushed to deploy/my-branch on success.

Start with environment variables

pipelines start \
  --application-id=1g2i3b4b5o6u7s \
  --vcs-path=main \
  -D MY_VAR=foo \
  -D ANOTHER_VAR=bar

Start and stream logs immediately

pipelines start --application-id=1g2i3b4b5o6u7s --tail

Start with log streaming delay

Useful when the build takes a moment to produce output:

pipelines start --application-id=1g2i3b4b5o6u7s --tail --delay=5

Start with retry options

Control how many times the log streaming retries on failure:

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.

pipeline-operations is a skill published in the GitHub repository acquia/acquia-skills (9 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 3,305 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, reaches for credential files, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
