review-ci

review-ci is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from paultyng/skill-issue. It costs 59 tokens per session (1,831 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review guide for CI/CD workflows, the automated steps that build, test, and release software. It focuses mainly on GitHub Actions and also covers other pipeline systems more lightly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review GitHub Actions, build and release pipelines, workflow changes, action version pinning, workflow permissions, and CI supply-chain security.
Why use it?
It helps find unsafe permissions, unpinned actions, and supply-chain risks in automation. It also gives a structured way to inspect workflow files and pipeline changes.

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

review-ci 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 9d 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.

Reads agent configuration directorieslowAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

- Findings must cite probed evidence (`path:line`, grep output, command result), not pattern-matched suspicion. Per `~/.claude/rules/probe-not-assume.md`.

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 165 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CI / Workflow Review

Structured review of CI/CD pipeline configuration. Focus is on GitHub Actions (the dominant case); CircleCI / Buildkite / GitLab / Jenkins are noted where they share concerns but receive lighter coverage.

Out of scope (defer to siblings):

  • Application source code → review-code
  • Container images and Dockerfiles → review-infrastructure
  • Application-level secrets and IAM → review-security

Workflow

1. Scope and explore

  • Confirm scope with the user: full repo CI config, specific workflow(s), or changed files only (PR or branch diff).
  • Resolve scope to a file list. Based on what the user requested:
    • Changed files (PR or branch): Run git diff --name-only --diff-filter=d <base>...HEAD. If the user references a PR number, use gh pr diff <number> --name-only instead. Filter to CI file types (see classification below).
    • Explicit paths: Include all CI files under given directories.
    • Full repo: Walk for CI files (default).
  • If invoked from review-all: receive file_list, has_changes, base_ref, REVIEW_DIR, and pr_url from the orchestrator. Skip your own scope confirmation.

File classification. Detect by path and content:

  • GitHub Actions workflows: .github/workflows/*.yml, .github/workflows/*.yaml
  • Composite / reusable actions: action.yml or action.yaml files (any location, but typically .github/actions/*/action.yml)
  • Dependabot / Renovate config: .github/dependabot.yml, renovate.json, .renovaterc*
  • CircleCI: .circleci/config.yml
  • Buildkite: .buildkite/pipeline.yml, .buildkite/*.yml
  • GitLab CI: .gitlab-ci.yml
  • Jenkins: Jenkinsfile
  • Other: azure-pipelines.yml, cloudbuild.yaml, bitbucket-pipelines.yml, wercker.yml

2. System overview

Produce a brief pipeline summary covering:

  • Triggers in use: push, pull_request, pull_request_target, workflow_dispatch, schedule, workflow_call, release
  • Branches / paths gated
  • Reusable workflows or composite actions referenced
  • Self-hosted vs. GitHub-hosted runners
  • Secrets / OIDC providers in use (named, not values)
  • Deploy targets (if discernible)

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
