ci-cd

ci-cd is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from kid-sid/codex-spellbook. It costs 48 tokens per session (5,272 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for building GitHub Actions pipelines, which automatically test, package, and deploy code when repository events occur.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure tests, linting, security scans, caching, release promotion, cloud authentication, and publishing Docker images or Python and npm packages.
Why use it?
It helps make builds repeatable and catches quality, security, authentication, and deployment problems before release.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is run: ./scripts/deploy.sh staging.

Good fit Use it to configure tests, linting, security scans, caching, release promotion, cloud authentication, and publishing Docker images or Python and npm packages.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

ci-cd 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 1mo 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.

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.

CI/CD with GitHub Actions

A complete reference for building robust, secure, and efficient CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, covering everything from workflow anatomy to multi-environment deployment promotion.

When to Activate

  • Creating or modifying a GitHub Actions workflow
  • Adding a quality gate (coverage, lint, security scan) to a pipeline
  • Setting up CD with environment promotion from staging to production
  • Optimizing a slow CI pipeline with caching or parallelism
  • Publishing a Docker image, Python package, or npm package from CI
  • Configuring secrets and OIDC-based cloud authentication

Workflow Anatomy

Every GitHub Actions workflow is defined in .github/workflows/*.yml. Understanding the core building blocks is essential before composing pipelines.

Triggers

Trigger Use Case
push Run on commits to specified branches or tags
pull_request Run on PR open, sync, or reopen
workflow_dispatch Manual trigger with optional input parameters
schedule Cron-based triggers (e.g., nightly security scans)
workflow_call Reusable workflow called by another workflow

Jobs

  • Jobs run in parallel by default unless needs: is specified.
  • Use needs: [job-a, job-b] to declare dependencies; a job waits for all listed jobs to succeed.
  • Each job runs in a fresh virtual machine (or container).

Steps

  • uses: — invokes a reusable action from the marketplace or a local path.
  • run: — executes a shell command directly on the runner.
  • Steps within a job share the same filesystem and runner environment.

Key Contexts

Context What It Provides
github Repo name, SHA, ref, event name, actor, run ID
secrets Encrypted secret values; never printed in logs
env Environment variables set at workflow, job, or step level
matrix Current values from the strategy matrix
job Current job status, container info

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.

ci-cd is a skill published in the GitHub repository kid-sid/codex-spellbook (22 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 5,272 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
