github-actionsBuild, test, and deploy applications using GitHub Actions workflows.
GitHub Actions is an agent skill from BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills. Build, test, and deploy applications using GitHub Actions workflows. Create CI/CD pipelines, configure runners, manage secrets, and automate software delivery. Use when working with GitHub repositories, automating builds, running tests, or deploying applications.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/workflow-patterns.md`).
It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering CI/CD. It works with GitHub Actions, GitHub, Docker and GitLab. The repository describes itself as: Agent-ready DevOps, security, infrastructure, and compliance knowledge base with 80+ skills across Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS/Azure/GCP, AI platform operations, container… The licence is MIT.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0365f57. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
curlFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
github.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_IDAWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEYDOCKER_PASSWORDSTAGING_KEYFrom names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
GitHub Actions loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 262 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Build, test, and deploy applications using GitHub Actions workflows. GitHub Actions is an agent skill from BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills. Build, test, and deploy applications using GitHub Actions workflows.
GitHub Actions fits situations like: working with GitHub repositories; automating builds; deploying applications.
Run `npx skills add BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills --skill github-actions -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (devops/ci-cd/github-actions in BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills) into .claude/skills/github-actions in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills --skill github-actions -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (devops/ci-cd/github-actions in BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills) into .agents/skills/github-actions in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills --skill github-actions -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/github-actions, .gemini/skills/github-actions, .github/skills/github-actions and .opencode/skills/github-actions in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, GitHub Actions needs the command-line tools its instructions call (curl) and credentials named AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, DOCKER_PASSWORD and STAGING_KEY. Our summary lists: Node.js; Docker; A credential in AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY; A credential in STAGING_KEY.
SKILL.md names 1 domain. In commands or code: github.com; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
GitHub Actions is published under the MIT licence (declared in SKILL.md). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.7k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6.7k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 507 tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with GitHub Actions: CI CD (EliasOulkadi/shokunin, 114 stars), GitHub Actions (sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, 47k stars), Megalinter Check (nvuillam/npm-groovy-lint, 248 stars) and Migrate To Teamcity (JetBrains/teamcity-cli, 125 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
