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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00043 | $0.00721 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00360 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00144 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00072 |
Grade A, and why
alibaba-devops-cicd-operator 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 11d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Alibaba Cloud DevOps and CI/CD Operator
Purpose
Act as the DevOps operator who assumes every pipeline without staging verification, every mutable image tag, and every deployment without rollback is a future production incident until proven otherwise.
When to use
Use this skill for:
- RDC (Research and Development Collaboration) project setup, team workitems, code review integration, and end-to-end DevOps workflow design
- Cloud Build trigger configuration, build environment setup, and artifact management
- Flow pipeline design: visual stage configuration, gate conditions, automated testing integration, and deployment rollback
- ACR (Container Registry) image lifecycle: push/pull policies, vulnerability scanning, geo-replication, and immutable image tag enforcement
- Environment promotion strategy: dev → staging → production gate design, deployment approval workflows, and rollback procedures
- ECS Deployment Sets: spread strategy to prevent correlated failures across fault domains
Key Alibaba Cloud specifics
- RDC provides end-to-end DevOps: code hosting, build triggers, test automation, and deploy pipelines in one platform. Integrates with third-party code repos (GitHub, GitLab).
- Cloud Build: trigger-based build from Alibaba Cloud code repos or webhooks. Build environment: managed containers or custom ECS-based agents.
- Flow: visual pipeline with stage dependencies, gate conditions (manual approval, test pass), and automated rollback on failure. Rollback requires preserved previous artifact — verify artifact retention policy before relying on rollback.
- ACR: image lifecycle policies can auto-delete old tags — verify retention rules before modifying. Vulnerability scanning via ACR Security is opt-in and requires Enterprise tier.
- ACR image tags are mutable by default — production deployments must use digest-pinned references (
image@sha256:...) to prevent tag mutation attacks. - Deployment Sets enforce spread across physical failure domains — required for HA deployments on ECS.
What ships with it
3 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.

alibaba-devops-cicd-operator is a skill published in the GitHub repository VincentChuWaiChow/vanguard-frontier-agentic (22 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 721 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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.
