What it does

GitHub Actions Pin Audit is an agent skill from hewigovens/jayjay. Audit unpinned GitHub Actions references or related bot PRs. Verify and replace pins when fixes are requested.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 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, Rust and macOS. The repository describes itself as: A native macOS GUI for Jujutsu (jj) — DAG graph, side-by-side diffs, interdiff, conflict resolution. Built with Rust + SwiftUI.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve CI/CD

Example prompts

  • “/github-actions-pin-audit”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Inventory references in the requested scope. For a repository-wide audit, include all workflows; for a selected PR or finding, keep edits…
  2. For each mutable third-party ref, resolve the intended commit and check the annotated tag's peeled target
  3. When fixes are authorized, replace the ref with the full SHA and keep the version as a trailing comment (@ # v7.0.0) so the pin stays…
  4. After edits, re-run the inventory, parse the changed YAML, and run actionlint when available. Report unavailable validators. For a syntax…
  5. When superseding a bot pull request, leave it untouched and say the new change supersedes it. Pushing and opening the pull request follow…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5036008. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • rg
    • git
    • ruby

    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

GitHub Actions Pin Audit loads about 558 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 268 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~34
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~558

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 268 words (~558 tokens).

“dtolnay/rust-toolchain is pinned from upstream master history; keep with: toolchain: stable.”
