Getting it into your agent
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00028 | $0.02185 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00874 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00437 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00218 |
Grade A, and why
github-actions-docs 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.

GitHub Actions
Version: Latest (2026) | Source: docs.github.com/en/actions
Overview
GitHub Actions is a CI/CD platform that automates build, test, and deployment pipelines directly from your repository. Workflows are defined as YAML files in .github/workflows/ and triggered by repository events, schedules, or manual dispatch.
Quick Reference
| Topic | File | Key Content |
|---|---|---|
| Getting Started | getting-started.md |
Understanding Actions, quickstart, workflow templates, triggers, runners selection, workflow tasks |
| Workflow Syntax | workflow-syntax.md |
Full YAML syntax: name, on, jobs, steps, strategy, matrix, container, services, concurrency, permissions, env, defaults, reusable jobs, filter patterns |
| Events, Contexts & Expressions | events-contexts.md |
All 30+ trigger events, 12 contexts (github, env, vars, job, jobs, steps, runner, secrets, strategy, matrix, needs, inputs), expression operators, functions, status checks |
| Runners | runners.md |
GitHub-hosted runners (Ubuntu/Windows/macOS), larger runners, self-hosted runners, Actions Runner Controller (ARC) |
| Security & Reuse | security-reuse.md |
Secrets management, OIDC, artifact attestations, GITHUB_TOKEN permissions, custom actions (JS/composite/Docker), metadata syntax, reusable workflows |
| Managing Workflows | managing.md |
Manual runs, re-running, canceling, disabling, status badges, auto-labeling issues, scripts, deployment to Azure/AWS/GKE, limits, metrics |
| Caching, Artifacts, Variables & Commands | caching-commands.md |
Dependency caching (actions/cache, keys, restore-keys), artifacts (upload/download), default environment variables (GITHUB_, RUNNER_), config variable precedence, workflow commands (debug, notice, warning, error, group, mask, GITHUB_ENV, GITHUB_OUTPUT, GITHUB_PATH, GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY) |
| Advanced Topics | advanced.md |
Deployment environments (protection rules, required reviewers, wait timer, branch restrictions, env secrets/vars), debug logging (runner diagnostic, step debug), billing & usage (minute multipliers, included minutes, storage), GITHUB_TOKEN authentication (API calls, CLI, permissions), REST API (workflows, runs, artifacts, caches, secrets, runners), migration from Jenkins/CircleCI/GitLab/Azure Pipelines (concept mapping tables), service containers (PostgreSQL, Redis) |
What ships with it
8 files 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.
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.

github-actions-docs is a skill published in the GitHub repository pledgeandgrow/pledge-skills (10 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 2,185 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-31.
