SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires git, tracker, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the end-to-end process of continuous integration and delivery, including triage, planning, implementation, pull request, and verification, in a supervised cycle with configurable safety boundaries.

Core Features & Use Cases

Automated Orchestration: Runs the CI/CD pipeline in a continuous loop, selecting and dispatching work within configurable safety boundaries.
Modes: Supports various modes like observe, implement, triage-only, review-only, and full autonomy.
Budgets: Enforces time and token budgets to prevent overuse and ensure predictability.
Self-Improvement: Analyzes session behavior to propose optimizations and improvements.

Quick Start

Start the autopilot skill with the desired mode and budget: /autopilot --mode implement --budget 2h

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate continuous integration and delivery from triage to pull request?▼

Continuous delivery orchestration automates triage, planning, implementation, pull request, and verification in a supervised loop. You configure safety boundaries and budgets to dispatch work autonomously across your project repository and tracking system.

What is autonomous CI/CD orchestration and how does it handle errors?▼

Autonomous CI/CD orchestration runs a continuous loop selecting and dispatching work within safety boundaries. It handles edge cases and errors using configured retry policies and alerts to ensure pipeline reliability without constant manual intervention.

Do I need a git repository and tracker to run automated CI/CD pipelines?▼

Yes, automated CI/CD pipelines require access to a git project repository and a tracking system. These dependencies provide the code context and work items needed for the orchestration loop to triage, implement, and verify changes effectively.

Can I limit automated continuous delivery with time and token budgets?▼

Yes, continuous delivery orchestration enforces time and token budgets to prevent resource overuse and ensure predictability. You start the pipeline specifying a mode and budget, such as a two-hour limit for implementation tasks.

What are the limitations of observe mode versus full autonomy in CI/CD orchestration?▼

Observe mode restricts CI/CD orchestration to monitoring without executing changes, while full autonomy allows the pipeline to triage, implement, and verify automatically. Modes like triage-only or review-only limit the loop to specific stages within safety boundaries.

How does CI/CD self-improvement optimize the continuous delivery loop?▼

CI/CD self-improvement analyzes session behavior within the orchestration loop to propose optimizations. By evaluating how triage, planning, and verification stages execute, it suggests adjustments to improve future pipeline efficiency and resource usage.
