woodpecker-authoring-pipelines

woodpecker-authoring-pipelines is a skill for Claude Code from technicalpickles/pickled-claude-plugins. It costs 77 tokens per session (432 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for writing and checking Woodpecker CI configuration files. Woodpecker CI runs build and test steps automatically, and its commands and service networking differ from a local shell.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create, port, validate, and locally test .woodpecker.yml files and explains common shell, permissions, service, and failure-reporting differences.
Why use it?
Configurations that work locally can fail in CI because steps use sh rather than Bash, run as root, reach services by service name, or ignore failures. Local linting catches configuration errors before a push.

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

woodpecker-authoring-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 21d 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.

What it actually says

Authoring Woodpecker pipelines

Validate before pushing

woodpecker-cli lint .woodpecker.yml    # a file, or a .woodpecker/ directory

Exit 0 prints Config is valid. Errors print one line each and exit 1. It needs no server and no login, so it works on any machine with the CLI. A warning like "consider adding a when block with an event filter" is advice, not an error: without one, a step runs on every event.

woodpecker-cli exec runs a pipeline on the local machine. It defaults the event to manual, which skips any step filtered to push, so pass --pipeline-event push. What it mounts and how services behave depend on the backend and the machine; see references/runtime-facts.md.

Where "works locally, fails in CI" comes from

The shell, the user a step runs as, how services are named and what the checkout looks like all depend on the pipeline's backend, image and settings, so don't assume them. Add a throwaway probe step that prints id, ls -l /bin/sh and ls -ld .git, read its log, and fix against what it shows. Probes and the documented behavior (failure: ignore, skipped steps, event filters) are in references/runtime-facts.md.

Conventions

Trigger rules, base images and file layout are choices each repo makes. Read the repo's own CLAUDE.md and copy a sibling repo's pipeline before inventing structure.

Files

What ships with it

2 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.

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.
