github-actions-change

github-actions-change is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dayfinggg/openai-codex-agent-skills. It costs 34 tokens per session (368 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to changing GitHub Actions, the automation service built into GitHub for running repository workflows. It covers workflow events, permissions, dependencies, caches, artifacts, and untrusted input.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to edit workflow YAML or repository actions, change CI/CD behavior, validate event paths, and review how inputs, tokens, artifacts, and caches flow through jobs.
Why use it?
It helps preserve required checks while avoiding unsafe permissions, secret exposure, dependency changes, cache misuse, and incorrect handling of code from outside contributors.

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

github-actions-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 today.

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.

What it actually says

Preserve workflow coverage and trust boundaries while implementing the requested CI/CD behavior.

  1. Read affected workflows, local or reusable actions, scripts, runner configuration, required checks, and current failures. Determine which events and branch contexts are intentionally supported.
  2. Trace the origin of checked-out code, artifacts, caches, inputs, and expressions into every privileged job. Distinguish workflow code trust from permissions to trigger it.
  3. Preserve required events and user-access behavior. Fix untrusted interpolation or checkout without removing supported events as an incidental security shortcut.
  4. Inspect token permissions, secret exposure, environment restrictions, and dependency resolution. Respect an existing workflow dependency lockfile. Otherwise use supported immutable dependency references and verify their origin where the task changes them.
  5. Separate caches from release artifacts. Check cache keys, restore trust, build inputs, and artifact provenance. A restored cache must not silently replace the artifact associated with the tested commit.
  6. Validate YAML and action inputs using existing tooling, then run the relevant event path where authorized. Local YAML parsing alone does not prove GitHub event semantics.
  7. Inspect the actual commit's jobs, skipped paths, test counts, and outputs. If PR work must wait on checks, use the host's supported PR watcher and obey its handback contract rather than polling.

Use the current GitHub Actions secure-use reference and workflow syntax. Do not add hooks, unrelated actions, or new approval stages merely because an external guide mentions them.

Changes

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.
