What it does

Action Audit is an agent skill from bitwarden/ai-plugins, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Audit GitHub Actions action usage across an org. Searches for a specific action (incident mode) or sweeps all workflow files for non-compliant action references (audit mode). Produces a read-only report of findings with compliance status and resolved SHAs. Does not modify any files. <example User: We need to check if any repos are using tj-actions/changed-files Action: Trigger action-audit in incident mode for that action </example <example User: Can you find all unpinned actions across the org? Action: Trigger…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering CI/CD. It works with GitHub Actions. The repository describes itself as: AI plugin marketplace.

When your agent uses it

  • Action-audit in incident mode for that action </example <example User: Can you find all unpinned actions across the org?
  • Action-audit in audit mode </example

Example prompts

  • “/action-audit”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, Bash(gh search code:*), Bash(gh api:*)

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Parse Context
  2. Search Org-Wide
  3. Parse and Display Results
  4. Resolve Remediation Targets
  5. Summary Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 53e22a3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Bash(gh search code:*)
    • Bash(gh api:*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Action Audit loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 143 tokens; SKILL.md has 634 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~143
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 634 words (~1,499 tokens).

“Before classifying any action reference, read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/bitwarden-workflow-linter-rules/SKILL.md and apply the step_pinned rule as the compliance definition for all steps below. That skill is the single source of truth for what is and is not compliant.”
