ship-change

A release guide for authorized changes in GitHub, the service used to host code and pull requests. It handles the final repository actions only after planning, implementation, verification, and review gates pass.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to push an approved branch, open or update a pull request, reconcile labels, submit an authorized review, or request a merge when the exact code version and required evidence are current.
Why use it?
It prevents stale code, missing checks, unresolved discussions, or missing approvals from being merged accidentally.

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

ship-change 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 yesterday.

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 — 52 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Ship Change

Responsibility

This is the sole skill allowed to mutate GitHub for the AI change process. It may push an already prepared branch, open or update a PR, reconcile labels, submit an authorized review, and request a merge only when policy permits. It does not plan, implement, verify, or review code.

Preconditions

  • Valid current plan, implementation, verification and clean review artifacts.
  • Clean $review-pr artifact for the live PR head.
  • Current policy classification and reconciled label set.
  • A .agents/schemas/merge-intent.schema.json artifact for the same PR head.
  • Explicit user authorization for the requested GitHub mutation.

Before a merge action, reread the live pull request and prove that required checks, clean review, resolved conversations, protected-path approval, merge intent, and head SHA are all current. Automated merge authority belongs to the private controller; this public skill must not substitute a local merge path.

Procedure

  1. Re-read the live PR head immediately before mutation.
  2. Refuse stale artifacts, missing checks, neutral/skipped/cancelled checks, unresolved conversations or a different head.
  3. Reconcile managed labels; remove stale managed labels as well as adding current ones.
  4. For human-required or automerge: false classifications, prepare the PR handoff and stop before automatic merge.
  5. For an eligible authorized change, request the policy-approved squash merge path and verify the live result. Do not claim merged from an enqueue acknowledgement.
  6. Record the exact command/API operation and authoritative readback.

Output

Report PR URL/number, branch, exact head, labels changed, review/merge operation, readback state and remaining action. Only record the state-machine merged transition after the authorized exact head is confirmed on the base branch.

Prohibitions

No force push, no direct protected-branch push, no merge-policy bypass, no blind retry, and no mutation based only on trusted-auto-merge.

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.

ship-change is a skill published in the GitHub repository davidomil/cloudx (1 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 456 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
