Automated safety checks
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

About this skill
What it does
The pipeline-auditor skill analyzes CI/CD pipelines to identify potential security vulnerabilities and inefficiencies. It can assess pipeline configurations for common misconfigurations, such as exposed secrets or insecure dependencies. The tool provides actionable insights to improve the reliability and security posture of your software delivery process.
When to use it
- Security Reviews: Before deploying a new version of an application, audit the CI/CD pipeline for potential vulnerabilities.
- Compliance Checks: Ensure pipelines adhere to organizational security policies and industry best practices.
- Performance Optimization: Identify bottlenecks or inefficient steps within the pipeline that can be optimized.
- Incident Response: Investigate a failed deployment or suspected security breach by examining the relevant CI/CD pipeline.
Key capabilities
- Pipeline configuration analysis
- Vulnerability detection
- Dependency scanning
- Secret exposure identification
- Efficiency assessment
Example prompts
- "Audit my Jenkinsfile for potential vulnerabilities."
- "Analyze this GitLab CI YAML file and report any security concerns."
- "Identify inefficient steps in the GitHub Actions workflow located at [path to workflow]."
Tips & gotchas
The skill requires access to pipeline configuration files (e.g., Jenkinsfiles, YAML pipelines). Ensure that the AI agent has appropriate permissions to read these files for accurate analysis.
