create-gh-pages-site is a skill for Claude Code from jongio/skills. It costs 220 tokens per session (7,505 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for creating and publishing websites on GitHub Pages, the static-site hosting service built into GitHub. It supports templates for plain HTML, Astro, Eleventy, React with Vite, and Jekyll, plus automatic deployment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Scaffolding a GitHub Pages site, choosing a suitable template, configuring its build and base path, adding project information and usage instructions, and setting up the official deployment workflow.
Why use it?
It handles deployment setup and the repository base-path issue that can make links and assets fail on GitHub Pages, while also replacing template demo text with project-specific content.

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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-gh-pages-site 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 11 executable files (evals/create-gh-pages-site/fixtures/spectator/docs/.vitepress/theme/index.ts, evals/create-gh-pages-site/fixtures/spectator/spectator.config.ts, scripts/digest-repo.mjs, …), 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 497 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Create GitHub Pages Site

Turn "put this on GitHub Pages" into a correct, building, auto-deploying repo. The hard part of GitHub Pages isn't the HTML — it's the deploy plumbing and the base-path trap. This skill owns both: it stamps a vetted template, sets the base path for the exact repo, ships the current official Pages workflow, and walks the user through enabling Pages.

It also never stops at the template's demo content. A stamped template is a skeleton, not the deliverable — the skill reads the target repo and authors a site about that project: real name and pitch, the right kind of reference (CLI, library, app, or catalog), real install/usage pulled from the repo, and labeled image placeholders the user can drop real art into. Shipping a site that still says "Hello, Astro" for someone's CLI is a failure, even if it deploys.

When to use which template

Pick by what the user is building. If unsure, ask one question (content vs. app) and default to static-html for the simplest ask.

Template Reach for it when… Tier Build
static-html A landing page, a few hand-made pages, "just put this HTML up". No toolchain. static none
astro A content site, blog, docs, or marketing page that should be fast and mostly static. SSG astro build
react-vite An interactive single-page app / dashboard with client-side routing. SPA vite build
eleventy A data/Markdown-driven site (blog, docs) where content is files + structured data. data SSG eleventy
jekyll The user wants the GitHub-native path, or is migrating an existing Jekyll site. native Jekyll
skills-catalog A browsable catalog for a repository of Copilot skills, especially when composing create-skills-repo. catalog registry-defined
spectator A technical specification, RFC, architecture proposal, design proposal, engineering decision, or policy proposal built for structured review. SSG vitepress build docs

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.
