What it does

Managing GitHub Actions Secrets is an agent skill from PostHog/posthog, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Creates and updates GitHub Actions secrets for PostHog workflows. Use when adding a new CI secret, rotating an existing secret, wiring a workflow to an API token, package registry credential, deploy key, or any value referenced via ${{ secrets. }} in .github/workflows/.

Its SKILL.md is about 840 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 and PostHog. The repository describes itself as: :hedgehog: PostHog is the leading platform for building self-driving products. Our developer tools – AI observability, analytics, session replay, flags, experiments, error…

When your agent uses it

  • Adding a new CI secret
  • Rotating an existing secret
  • Wiring a workflow to an API token
  • Package registry credential

Example prompts

  • “Use the managing-github-actions-secrets skill to create and updates GitHub Actions secrets for PostHog workflows”
  • “/managing-github-actions-secrets”

Requirements

  • A credential in POSTHOGOS_PACKAGER_KEY

Workflow steps

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

  1. Open .
  2. Click New organization secret (or the existing secret to update it).
  3. Set the Name (SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE, descriptive, like POSTHOGOS_PACKAGER_KEY).
  4. Paste the Value.
  5. Under Repository access, choose Selected repositories and pick the
  6. Click Add secret / Update secret.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 10f9ad7. 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:

    • gh

    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):

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • POSTHOGOS_PACKAGER_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Managing GitHub Actions Secrets loads about 836 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 364 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~77
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~836

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 364 words (~836 tokens).

“PostHog centralizes all GitHub Actions secrets at the organization level and grants individual repositories access to them. Do not add secrets to a single repo, even if the secret is only consumed by one workflow today.”
