First moves — always run these

pnpm exec tsx .pi/skills/ci-troubleshoot/scripts/list-recent-runs.ts                  # last 10 runs across all workflows
pnpm exec tsx .pi/skills/ci-troubleshoot/scripts/list-recent-runs.ts --failed         # only failed
pnpm exec tsx .pi/skills/ci-troubleshoot/scripts/show-failed-run.ts <run-id>          # failed steps + log tails
pnpm exec tsx .pi/skills/ci-troubleshoot/scripts/show-failed-run.ts                   # most recent failed run

These wrap gh run list, gh run view --log-failed, and similar. You need gh auth status to be authenticated.

Scripts are TypeScript and cross-platform. All invocations use pnpm exec tsx, which resolves the declared local dependency and fails if dependencies are absent. gh CLI is cross-platform.
