What it does

GitHub Workflows Query is an agent skill from github/gh-aw, published by the product's own GitHub organization. List GitHub Actions workflows with perpage pagination support.

Its SKILL.md is about 430 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `query-workflows.sh`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering CI/CD. It works with GitHub Actions and GitHub. The repository describes itself as: GitHub Agentic Workflows. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve CI/CD

Example prompts

  • “/github-workflows-query”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eb63040. 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

    Ships script files (Shell), which the agent can run.

    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
    • 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

GitHub Workflows Query loads about 431 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 75 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~431

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.
