Validate GitHub Agentic Workflow contracts through compiled artifacts and realistic mutations

  • SKILL.md covers Context, Patterns, Examples and Anti-Patterns
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Gh Aw Reliability is an agent skill from bradygaster/squad. Validate GitHub Agentic Workflow contracts through compiled artifacts and realistic mutations

Its SKILL.md is about 440 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Squad: AI agent teams for any project. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/gh-aw-reliability”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 71818eb. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    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.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Gh Aw Reliability loads about 444 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 198 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~28
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~444

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.

Context

Use this skill when creating or changing Squad GitHub Agentic Workflow sources, safe outputs, authorization, or prompt inputs. Prompt prose can look correct while the compiled workflow does nothing or authorizes the wrong action.

Patterns

  • Treat workflow source, compiled lock output, and declared safe outputs as a single contract.
  • Strict-compile the workflow and inspect the emitted artifact; a zero exit code alone is not enough when a specific handler, input, or protected-file rule is required.
  • Enumerate all call sites when changing parsing, normalization, ownership binding, or command routing.
  • Bind authorization, labels, and mutable actions to committed provenance rather than an unverified working-tree claim.
  • Fail closed when the compiler, required tool, or evidence needed to prove the contract is unavailable.
  • Test a realistic mutation of the live source and prove the relevant gate fails.

Examples

test/gh-aw-deps-worker-workflow.test.ts mutates a real worker source, runs the compiler, then asserts on the compiled protected-files contract. test/gh-aw-activate-roster-binding.test.ts checks roster-derived authorization behavior.

Anti-Patterns

  • Validating only prompt text or a hand-built configuration object
  • Letting unavailable workflow tooling silently skip a protection gate
  • Testing one parser helper while leaving an alternate command-dispatch caller untested
  • Minting labels or authorization from role prose instead of committed roster evidence
