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 failed 3 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 2 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: api.allowed-service.com, install.sh.

    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.

About this skill

What it does

The gitlab-ci-generator skill generates GitLab CI configuration files (.gitlab-ci.yml). It allows users to define their desired build, test, and deployment pipelines in a declarative way, which are then translated into executable YAML code for GitLab runners. This simplifies the process of setting up continuous integration and delivery workflows.

When to use it

  • New Projects: Quickly bootstrap CI/CD pipelines for new projects without manually writing .gitlab-ci.yml files.
  • Standardizing Pipelines: Enforce consistent pipeline structures across multiple repositories within an organization.
  • Automating Repetitive Tasks: Generate complex pipelines with common steps, reducing manual configuration effort.
  • Experimenting with Pipeline Designs: Easily test and iterate on different CI/CD workflows without extensive YAML editing.

Key capabilities

  • Generates .gitlab-ci.yml files based on user input.
  • Supports defining build, test, and deployment stages.
  • Allows specification of runner types and environments.
  • Provides a declarative approach to pipeline configuration.

Example prompts

  • "Generate a GitLab CI pipeline for a Node.js project with linting, testing, and Docker image building."
  • "Create a .gitlab-ci.yml file for a Python application using pytest and deploying to AWS EC2."
  • “I need a basic CI/CD pipeline for a Go application that runs tests and builds an executable.”

Tips & gotchas

The skill's output is intended as a starting point; users may need to customize the generated .gitlab-ci.yml file further based on their specific project requirements and environment configurations. Familiarity with GitLab CI concepts will help in understanding and adjusting the generated configuration.
