claude-actions-auditor

claude-actions-auditor is a skill for Claude Code from kumaran-is/claude-code-onboarding. It costs 104 tokens per session (3,495 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A security audit guide for GitHub Actions workflows that run Claude Code Action. GitHub Actions are automated jobs that run in response to repository events such as pull requests or comments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect workflows, trace data into agent prompts, check sandbox and tool permissions, and review dangerous GitHub event configurations.
Why use it?
It finds ways attacker-controlled GitHub data could reach the coding agent through workflow settings, environment variables, prompts, or unsafe triggers.

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

claude-actions-auditor 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 7d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 301 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Iron Law

NO FINDINGS REPORT WITHOUT READING EVERY WORKFLOW FILE — never report "clean" based on filename or trigger alone; the env var intermediary (Vector A) is invisible without tracing data flow through the full YAML

Claude Actions Auditor

Static security analysis for GitHub Actions workflows that invoke anthropics/claude-code-action. Discovers workflow files, identifies Claude Code Action steps, captures security-relevant configuration, and detects 9 attack vectors where attacker-controlled input reaches Claude running in CI/CD.

When to Use

  • Auditing a repository's GitHub Actions workflows that use anthropics/claude-code-action
  • Before adding Claude Code Action to any workflow
  • Reviewing whether attacker-controlled GitHub event data can reach Claude's prompt
  • Evaluating Claude Code Action configuration (sandbox settings, tool permissions, user allowlists)
  • Assessing trigger events that expose workflows to external input (pull_request_target, issue_comment, etc.)
  • Investigating data flow from GitHub event context through env: blocks to Claude's prompt field

When NOT to Use

  • Analyzing workflows that do NOT use anthropics/claude-code-action
  • Performing runtime prompt injection testing (this is static analysis only, not exploitation)
  • Auditing non-GitHub CI/CD systems (Jenkins, GitLab CI, CircleCI)
  • Auto-fixing or modifying workflow files (this skill reports findings, does not modify files)

Rationalizations to Reject

When auditing Claude Code Action workflows, reject these common rationalizations. Each represents a reasoning shortcut that leads to missed findings.

1. "It only runs on PRs from maintainers" Wrong because it ignores pull_request_target, issue_comment, and other trigger events that expose actions to external input. Attackers do not need write access to trigger these workflows. A pull_request_target event runs in the context of the base branch, not the PR branch, meaning any external contributor can trigger it by opening a PR.

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.
