ci

Configuration guidance for running Ginkgo tests in continuous integration, where automated systems build and test code. It specifies flags for parallel and randomized runs, coverage, race detection, timeouts, progress, and JSON reports.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define a repeatable Ginkgo CI command, pin the CLI version through Go modules, collect coverage, and publish test reports.
Why use it?
It helps CI expose flaky tests, pending or empty suites, race conditions, and multiple failures while producing machine-readable results.

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 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.

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 — 71 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Ginkgo in CI

A CI invocation should maximize signal — surface flakes and spec pollution, catch mistakes that pass locally, and emit machine-readable artifacts — while collecting every failure in one run. This builds on the CLI (ginkgo:running) and report formats (ginkgo:reporting). Full rationale: https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/#recommended-continuous-integration-configuration.

Invoke via go run so the CLI version always tracks the github.com/onsi/ginkgo/v2 in your go.mod — no separately-installed binary to drift (→ ginkgo:setup).

go run github.com/onsi/ginkgo/v2/ginkgo \
  -r -p --randomize-all --randomize-suites \
  --fail-on-pending --fail-on-empty --keep-going \
  --cover --coverprofile=cover.profile --race --trace \
  --json-report=report.json --output-dir=.ginkgo-report \
  --timeout=TIMEOUT --poll-progress-after=Xs --poll-progress-interval=Ys
Flag Why
-r recursively find and run every suite
-p run each suite in parallel (→ ginkgo:parallelism; set --procs=N/--compilers=N if CPU detection is wrong)
--randomize-all / --randomize-suites shuffle all specs and the suite order to surface spec pollution (→ ginkgo:running)
--fail-on-pending fail if any Pending specs were committed
--fail-on-empty fail if no specs ran (usually a malformed filter)
--keep-going don't stop at the first failed suite — collect all failures
--cover --coverprofile=cover.profile compute coverage into one merged profile (→ ginkgo:reporting)
--race run with the race detector
--trace full stack traces on failure (worth it without a local feedback loop)
--json-report=report.json structured results for diagnosis and downstream tools (→ ginkgo:debugging-failures)
--timeout=TIMEOUT cap the whole run (default 1h — often not enough)
--poll-progress-after/--poll-progress-interval emit progress reports for stuck specs (→ ginkgo:timeouts-and-async)

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.

ci is a skill published in the GitHub repository onsi/ginkgo (9,046 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 132 tokens to every session and 1,390 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 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.
