create-pipeline-v1

create-pipeline-v1 is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from harness/harness-skills. It costs 148 tokens per session (3,288 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool for creating Harness v1 pipeline files in YAML, using a shorter layout for build, test, deployment, approval, and parallel steps. Harness is a platform for automating software builds and deployments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define CI pipelines, CD pipelines, or both, including builds, tests, deployments, and approvals. It can also push a generated pipeline to Harness when requested.
Why use it?
It removes the need to write the full pipeline structure by hand. It also guides users toward Harness actions for Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, and ECS tasks instead of custom shell commands.

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

create-pipeline-v1 scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Create Pipeline v1

Generate Harness v1 simplified Pipeline YAML and optionally push to Harness via MCP.

Alpha: This skill is currently in internal testing only.

Instructions

  1. Confirm v1 format - User must specifically want v1 syntax. Default to v0 (/create-pipeline) if unclear.
  2. Clarify requirements - Pipeline type (CI, CD, or both), language/framework, deployment target
  3. Consult the spec reference - Use references/v1-spec-schema.md for the complete v1 schema, step types, action catalog, and examples
  4. Select native actions - Always prefer native action and template steps over run: steps. Consult references/native-actions.md for the full mapping. Key rules:
    • Docker build/push → use template: uses: buildAndPushToDocker / buildAndPushToECR / buildAndPushToGAR (never run: docker build && docker push)
    • K8s deploy → use action: uses: kubernetes-rolling-deploy or template: uses: k8sRollingDeployStep (never run: kubectl apply)
    • Helm deploy → use action: uses: helm-deploy or template: uses: helmDeployBasicStep (never run: helm upgrade --install)
    • ECS deploy → use template: uses: ecsBluegreenDeployStep (never run: aws ecs update-service)
    • Terraform → use template: uses: terraformStep (never run: terraform apply)
    • Security scanning → use native STO templates (gitleaksStep, banditStep, sbomOrchestrationStep)
    • Uploads → use template: uses: uploadArtifactsToS3 / uploadArtifactsToGCS (never run: aws s3 cp)
    • Approvals → use approval: uses: harness or approval: uses: jira (never polling scripts)
    • Ticketing → use action: uses: jira-create / snow-create (never run: curl)
    • HTTP requests → use action: uses: http or template: uses: httpStep (never run: curl)
    • Use run: steps only for custom build/test/lint commands with no native equivalent
  5. Generate v1 YAML using flat structure, ${{ }} expressions, script field for run steps, and action/template steps for deployments
  6. Optionally create via MCP using harness_create with resource_type pipeline

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.
