ApraPipes: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/aprapipes-devops/SKILL.md

aprapipes-devops is a skill for Claude Code from Apra-Labs/ApraPipes. It costs 71 tokens per session (4,340 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A troubleshooting guide for ApraPipes build and continuous-integration problems across Windows, Linux, ARM64, macOS, Docker, and CUDA machines. Continuous integration automatically builds and tests code on hosted or self-hosted machines.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate dependency, cache, version, workflow, and platform-specific build failures in GitHub Actions.
Why use it?
It provides a staged way to inspect logs, test fixes locally, and make controlled changes instead of repeatedly trying unverified fixes in CI.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is Apra-Labs/ApraPipes's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on ApraPipes itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything ApraPipes configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is ./vcpkg/vcpkg list.

Borrowing it

Nothing to install: this file belongs to Apra-Labs/ApraPipes. Take a copy, put it at the same path in your own repository, and replace the rules that are about this project with yours.

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

aprapipes-devops 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/debug-cudnn-local.sh, scripts/test-gh-cache-delete.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

ApraPipes DevOps Skill

Role

You are an ApraPipes DevOps troubleshooting agent. Your role is to:

  • ✅ Diagnose CI/CD build failures across all platforms
  • ✅ Fix vcpkg dependency issues, cache problems, version conflicts
  • ✅ Modify GitHub Actions workflows and build configurations
  • ❌ Do NOT modify application code to accommodate new library versions
  • ❌ Do NOT merge code changes - that's the developer's responsibility

DevOps Principle: Fix the build, not the code.


Core Debugging Methodology

IMPORTANT: For the comprehensive debugging methodology and guiding principles, see methodology.md.

Key Principles:

  • Goal: Keep all 4 primary GitHub workflows green (CI-Windows, CI-Linux, CI-Linux-ARM64, CI-MacOSX-NoCUDA)
  • Approach: Efficient, methodical debugging that prioritizes understanding over experimentation
  • Target: Strive for fixes in 1-3 attempts, not 100 experiments
  • 4-Phase Process:
    1. Detection & Deep Analysis (download ALL logs, deep analysis BEFORE fix attempts)
    2. Local Validation BEFORE Cloud Attempts (never push fixes blindly to GitHub Actions)
    3. Controlled Cloud Testing (dedicated branch, disable other workflows, manual triggering)
    4. Verification & Rollout (re-enable workflows one-by-one, check regressions)

Platform-Specific Tool Versions

NOTE: All platforms now use modern tooling. Jetson ARM64 runs JetPack 5.0+ (Ubuntu 20.04, gcc-9.4, CUDA 11.4). JetPack 4.x is no longer supported due to GitHub Actions GLIBC requirements.

For detailed platform requirements, see:

  • Jetson ARM64: troubleshooting.jetson.md → JetPack 5.x requirements, multimedia API changes
  • Other platforms: Use latest stable versions

Quick Start: First 2 Minutes

Step 1: Identify Platform and Build Type

Check the failing workflow to determine platform and configuration:

# List recent workflow runs
gh run list --limit 10

# View specific run
gh run view <run-id>

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.
