ci-cd-pipelines

ci-cd-pipelines is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sawrus/agent-guides. It costs 0 tokens per session (386 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A collection of patterns for GitHub Actions, the service that runs automated checks and deployments when code changes. It covers checks for pull requests and controlled releases to staging and production.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating CI/CD workflows, caching dependencies, running tests and security scans, validating Terraform, and adding deployment gates.
Why use it?
It makes code validation and deployment steps repeatable and adds approval points before production 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

ci-cd-pipelines 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 4d 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.

Skill: CI/CD Pipeline Patterns

When to load

When designing GitHub Actions workflows, optimizing pipeline speed, implementing deployment gates.

Pipeline Structure

.github/workflows/
├── ci.yml          # Every PR: lint, test, build, security scan
├── deploy-stg.yml  # Merge to main: deploy to staging
└── deploy-prd.yml  # Release tag: deploy to production (with approval)

CI Template

jobs:
  validate:
    steps:
      - uses: actions/cache@v4
        with:
          path: ~/.npm
          key: ${{ runner.os }}-node-${{ hashFiles('**/package-lock.json') }}
      - run: npm ci
      - run: npm run lint && npm run typecheck && npm test -- --coverage

  terraform-validate:
    steps:
      - uses: hashicorp/setup-terraform@v3
      - run: terraform init -backend=false && terraform validate && terraform fmt -check -recursive
        working-directory: terraform/

  security:
    steps:
      - uses: aquasecurity/trivy-action@master
        with: { scan-type: fs, severity: HIGH,CRITICAL, exit-code: 1 }

Deployment Gate

jobs:
  deploy:
    environment: production   # Requires reviewer approval in GitHub Environments
    steps:
      - run: kubectl set image deployment/api api=$IMAGE
      - run: npm run test:smoke -- --env production

Pipeline Optimization Checklist

  • Dependencies cached with hash-based keys
  • Independent jobs parallelized (lint + test + security)
  • Docker layer caching enabled
  • Matrix builds for multi-version testing
  • Concurrency groups prevent redundant runs on same branch

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-cd-pipelines is a skill published in the GitHub repository sawrus/agent-guides (17 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 386 tokens. 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 2026-09-03.
