What it does

Watch CI is an agent skill from codervisor/leanspec. Watch GitHub Actions CI status for the current commit until completion. Use after pushing changes to monitor build results.

Its SKILL.md is about 720 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: Lightweight, flexible Spec-Driven Development (SDD) for modern AI-powered development. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Tasks that involve CI/CD

Example prompts

“/watch-ci”

Requirements

Python 3
Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Get the current commit SHA and branch
Find the workflow run matching our exact commit. The API returns runs newest-first; filter by head_sha. If the run hasn't appeared yet…
Poll jobs until all complete (every 60s for Rust builds which take ~8-10 min)
On failure, fetch the failed job logs to diagnose

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ee122d6. 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:
- Bash
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- curl
- python3
- git
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:
- api.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

Watch CI loads about 724 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 33 tokens; SKILL.md has 162 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~33
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~724

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
```
allowed-tools: Bash
```

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.

Watch CI

Poll the GitHub Actions CI pipeline for the current HEAD commit until all jobs finish.

Environment

The gh CLI is not available in the Claude VM. Use the GitHub REST API via curl. The repo is codervisor/leanspec.

Steps

Get the current commit SHA and branch:

bash

SHA=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)
echo "Watching CI for commit $SHA on branch $BRANCH"

Find the workflow run matching our exact commit. The API returns runs newest-first; filter by head_sha. If the run hasn't appeared yet (GitHub can take a few seconds), retry up to 5 times with 10s waits:

bash

curl -sH "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  "https://api.github.com/repos/codervisor/lean-spec/actions/runs?branch=$BRANCH&head_sha=$SHA&per_page=1" \
  | python3 -c "
import json, sys
data = json.load(sys.stdin)
runs = data.get('workflow_runs', [])
if not runs:
    print('NO_RUNS'); sys.exit()
r = runs[0]
print(f'RUN_ID={r[\"id\"]}')
print(f'Status: {r[\"status\"]}  Conclusion: {r.get(\"conclusion\") or \"pending\"}  Commit: {r[\"head_sha\"][:8]}')"

Poll jobs until all complete (every 60s for Rust builds which take ~8-10 min):

bash

curl -sH "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  "https://api.github.com/repos/codervisor/lean-spec/actions/runs/$RUN_ID/jobs" \
  | python3 -c "
import json, sys
data = json.load(sys.stdin)
for j in data.get('jobs', []):
    steps = [s for s in j.get('steps', []) if s['status'] == 'in_progress']
    step_info = f' -> {steps[0][\"name\"]}' if steps else ''
    print(f'{j[\"name\"]:40}  {j[\"status\"]:12}  {j.get(\"conclusion\") or \"\"}{step_info}')"

On failure, fetch the failed job logs to diagnose:

bash

curl -sH "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
  "https://api.github.com/repos/codervisor/lean-spec/actions/runs/$RUN_ID/jobs" \
  | python3 -c "
import json, sys
data = json.load(sys.stdin)
for j in data.get('jobs', []):
    if j.get('conclusion') == 'failure':
        print(f'FAILED: {j[\"name\"]} (id: {j[\"id\"]})')
        for s in j.get('steps', []):
            if s.get('conclusion') == 'failure':
                print(f'  Step: {s[\"name\"]}')"

CI Structure

node (~2 min): pnpm install, build, typecheck, test
rust (~8-10 min, depends on node): cargo fmt, clippy, build, test, TS binding export

Reporting

Give the user a brief status update each poll cycle. On completion, summarize:

Overall result (success/failure)
Per-job results
If failed: which step failed and relevant error output
