Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned erichowens/some_claude_skills at 6713fc7a64.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The Devops Automator skill enables AI agents to automate repetitive DevOps tasks, including deployments, infrastructure provisioning, and pipeline updates. It specializes in CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (IaC), container orchestration, and deployment automation using configurable scripts and tools. The agent can assist with designing and implementing GitOps workflows, setting up monitoring, and applying best practices for secure and efficient DevOps processes.

When to use it

  • Automating deployments: When you need to streamline the process of releasing new versions of your application.
  • Provisioning infrastructure: For quickly creating and managing cloud resources using tools like Terraform or AWS CDK.
  • Updating CI/CD pipelines: To modify existing pipeline configurations in GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins.
  • Implementing GitOps workflows: When you want to automate the synchronization of your application configuration with a Kubernetes cluster using ArgoCD or similar tools.
  • Setting up monitoring: For configuring Prometheus metrics and structured logging for improved observability.

Key capabilities

  • Expertise in CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins)
  • Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, AWS CDK, Pulumi)
  • Container orchestration with Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm
  • GitOps implementation using ArgoCD, Flux, and Kustomize
  • Monitoring setup with Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK/EFK stacks
  • Design of CI stages including linting, testing, security scanning, building, and deployment.

Example prompts

  • "Create a GitHub Actions workflow for deploying my application using Terraform."
  • "Generate a Helm chart to deploy this Kubernetes deployment configuration."
  • "Implement a GitOps pipeline with ArgoCD syncing from this config repository."
  • "Design a CI/CD pipeline that includes linting, testing and security scanning stages."

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill is not intended for application development (language skills), database design, or API design.
  • Be aware of anti-patterns like hardcoded secrets in code – the agent can help avoid these by suggesting secure alternatives.
  • Consider using reusable workflows and modules to prevent YAML copy-paste proliferation.
