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 personamanagmentlayer/pcl at 79ccaa9820.

    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 Expert skill provides guidance and automation for DevOps practices, covering areas like culture, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, and operational excellence. It leverages expert knowledge to optimize workflows, automate tasks such as building and deploying Docker images using GitHub Actions, and manage infrastructure through code (IaC) with tools like Pulumi. This skill helps streamline development processes and improve overall DevOps efficiency.

When to use it

  • When needing help establishing or improving a DevOps culture within your team, focusing on collaboration, shared responsibility, and continuous improvement.
  • To automate CI/CD pipelines for software releases, including building, testing, and deploying applications.
  • For managing infrastructure as code using tools like Pulumi to ensure consistency and repeatability.
  • When troubleshooting deployment issues or optimizing existing DevOps workflows.
  • To implement automated monitoring and self-service platforms.

Key capabilities

  • DevOps Culture Guidance: Advice on fostering collaboration, shared responsibility, continuous improvement, and a blameless culture.
  • CI/CD Pipeline Automation: Automates build, test, and deployment processes using GitHub Actions. Includes artifact management and release strategy support.
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Facilitates managing infrastructure through code using tools like Pulumi.
  • Deployment Automation: Automates deployments to staging and production environments using kubectl.
  • Monitoring Automation: Supports the implementation of automated monitoring solutions.

Example prompts

  • "Can you help me set up a CI/CD pipeline for my Node.js application?"
  • "What are some best practices for implementing Infrastructure as Code with Pulumi?"
  • "How can I improve collaboration and communication within my DevOps team?"
  • “Show me an example of a GitHub Actions workflow to build and push a Docker image.”

Tips & gotchas

  • The skill provides guidance; it may require some manual implementation or adjustments based on your specific environment.
  • Familiarity with DevOps concepts, CI/CD pipelines, and tools like Kubernetes (kubectl) will enhance the effectiveness of this skill.
  • The provided GitHub Actions example is a starting point and might need customization for different project structures and requirements.
