cicd-pipelines

cicd-pipelines is a skill for Claude Code from viktorbezdek/skillstack. It costs 93 tokens per session (3,537 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for building and automating CI/CD pipelines. CI/CD means automatically checking code and delivering it through environments such as testing and production.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Terraform, cloud templates, Kubernetes, Helm, GitOps, container builds, deployment workflows, caching, test sharding, and security scans.
Why use it?
It helps organise builds, tests, security checks, infrastructure changes, and deployments into repeatable workflows. It also covers diagnosing pipeline failures and improving slow builds or test suites.

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

cicd-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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 15 executable files (scripts/add-spdx-headers.sh, scripts/analyze-bus-factor.sh, scripts/check-branch-coverage.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

CI/CD Pipelines - Comprehensive DevOps Skill

A unified skill for CI/CD pipeline design, DevOps automation, infrastructure as code, GitOps deployment automation, security scanning, and enterprise pipeline readiness across major platforms.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

CI/CD Pipeline Development

  • Creating new CI/CD workflows (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins)
  • Debugging pipeline failures or flaky tests
  • Optimizing slow builds or test suites
  • Implementing caching strategies
  • Setting up deployment workflows
  • Implementing matrix builds or test sharding
  • Configuring multi-environment deployments

DevSecOps & Security

  • Securing pipelines (secrets, OIDC, supply chain)
  • Implementing security scanning (SAST, DAST, SCA)
  • Container image vulnerability scanning inside a pipeline
  • Secret detection and management
  • Enterprise readiness assessment (OpenSSF compliance)

Infrastructure as Code

  • Terraform module development
  • CloudFormation/CDK templates
  • Deploying Kubernetes manifests and Helm charts from CI/CD
  • GitOps workflows (ArgoCD, Flux)

Container Pipeline Integration

  • Building and signing container images from an existing Dockerfile
  • Publishing to registries from CI/CD
  • Scanning container images with tools such as Trivy or Snyk
  • Deploying containerized services through GitOps

For Dockerfile design, Docker Compose, local container environments, or container runtime architecture, switch to docker-containerization.

Release Management

  • Semantic versioning automation
  • Changelog generation
  • GitHub/GitLab release creation
  • Artifact signing and provenance

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.

cicd-pipelines is a skill published in the GitHub repository viktorbezdek/skillstack (14 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 93 tokens to every session and 3,537 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-30.
