What it does

Algolia CI Integration is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Build and review a bounded CI gate for Algolia index configuration and disposable-index smoke tests. Use when search changes need pull-request evidence without mutating production. Trigger with "Algolia CI", "test Algolia in GitHub Actions", or "search deployment gate".

Its SKILL.md is about 990 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/official-docs.md`). Compatibility notes: Designed for Claude Code

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Search implementation and QA and bug reports. It works with Algolia and GitHub Actions. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Search changes need pull-request evidence without mutating production
  • With Algolia CI
  • Test Algolia in GitHub Actions
  • Search deployment gate

Example prompts

  • “Algolia CI”
  • “test Algolia in GitHub Actions”
  • “search deployment gate”
  • “/algolia-ci-integration”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, WebFetch, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

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

  1. Map the package manager, test runner, Algolia wrapper, and current CI event permissions.
  2. Add offline tests for record shaping, settings serialization, and query contracts.
  3. Make the live smoke job opt-in or protected, with a unique non-production index name.
  4. Create records, wait for the task, perform one known query, and collect request IDs on failure.
  5. Delete the disposable index in a guaranteed cleanup step and report cleanup failure separately.
  6. Verify untrusted forks cannot read secrets or execute the credentialed job.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. 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
    • WebFetch
    • Write
    • Edit

    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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • algolia.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.

  • Compatibility

    Designed for Claude Code

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Algolia CI Integration loads about 994 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 425 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~73
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~994
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.3k

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.

Algolia CI Integration

Overview

This skill adds a deterministic CI lane for code that owns Algolia records, settings, or query behavior. It separates offline contract tests from an optional network smoke test against an explicitly disposable index.

Prerequisites

  • A named repository, environment, and Algolia application or index in scope
  • The local lockfile and installed client types as implementation authority
  • A safe read-only query or explicitly disposable test target
  • Current first-party documentation for any provider behavior that affects the change

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect local code, configuration names, tests, and dependency versions. Use WebFetch only for current official Algolia documentation. Use Write or Edit only after identifying the target files, constraints, and verification plan.

Current Contract

  • Pin the Node dependency and runner version already supported by the repository.
  • Keep production application IDs, index names, and write credentials out of pull-request workflows.
  • Name disposable indices with a run-specific suffix and record their cleanup result.
  • Test the exact client methods used by the application; for JavaScript v5, index operations live on the client.

Authentication

Use a repository secret containing a custom key limited to the disposable index and required ACLs. Do not use an Admin key or expose any write key to forked pull requests.

Instructions

  1. Map the package manager, test runner, Algolia wrapper, and current CI event permissions.
  2. Add offline tests for record shaping, settings serialization, and query contracts.
  3. Make the live smoke job opt-in or protected, with a unique non-production index name.
  4. Create records, wait for the task, perform one known query, and collect request IDs on failure.
  5. Delete the disposable index in a guaranteed cleanup step and report cleanup failure separately.
  6. Verify untrusted forks cannot read secrets or execute the credentialed job.

Approval Boundaries

Do not enable secrets for untrusted fork code, reuse a production index, or delete an index whose generated name was not validated. Require review for workflow-permission changes.

Output

Return the workflow diff, secret and ACL requirements, offline results, smoke-test evidence, cleanup receipt, and the exact conditions under which the network job runs.

Error Handling

ConditionResponse
Secret unavailableSkip the protected smoke job while keeping offline tests required.
Index name is not disposableFail before the first write.
Task does not completeCapture task ID and request ID; preserve cleanup.
Cleanup failsFail the job and identify the retained test index.

Examples

Use this compact input and expected handoff to calibrate scope and evidence quality.

Input:

text
repository=search-service; event=pull_request; smoke=protected

Expected handoff:

text
offline=pass; live=skipped-for-fork; production-writes=0
