SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It identifies why your GitHub Actions runs fail or get noisy, then helps you apply repo-side fixes so CI is actionable instead of chaotic.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • PR/run log triage: Pulls the latest Actions run for the current branch/PR and classifies warnings, errors, failures, and deprecation notices.
  • Actionable classification & fixes: Separates items into FIX/BUMP/PROPOSE/DEFER/EXPECTED buckets, then performs in-repo edits for anything fixable.
  • Guardrails for non-blocking failures: Detects continue-on-error cases where errors were emitted but the step still passed, and flags them correctly.
  • Output designed for review: Produces a structured verdict that tells the developer what changed and what still needs human input.

Quick Start

Run the ci-audit skill to review the latest GitHub Actions run for your current branch and fix any repo-side workflow or configuration issues.

FAQPage Schema
How do I diagnose and fix failing GitHub Actions workflow runs on my pull request?

Auditing GitHub Actions involves pulling the latest run logs for your branch or PR, classifying warnings and failures into actionable buckets like FIX or DEFER, and editing in-repo workflow or config files to resolve repo-side issues directly.

What is the best way to handle noisy GitHub Actions runs that pass with warnings?

Taming noisy GitHub Actions runs requires classifying warnings and deprecation noise into FIX, BUMP, PROPOSE, DEFER, or EXPECTED buckets, then performing in-repo edits to workflow or config files to eliminate the chaos.

Can I triage external PR checks like Codecov or GitGuardian when auditing GitHub Actions?

Yes, auditing GitHub Actions includes external PR checks like Codecov and GitGuardian, pulling logs to classify their failures and warnings, and generating a structured verdict that separates fixable in-repo issues from those needing human input.

Does this CI audit approach detect errors hidden by continue-on-error in GitHub Actions workflows?

Yes, the CI audit detects GitHub Actions continue-on-error cases where errors were emitted but the step still passed, flagging these non-blocking failures correctly so hidden issues are addressed during workflow triage.

Do I need the gh CLI to locate workflow runs for GitHub Actions log analysis?

Yes, GitHub Actions log analysis requires using the gh CLI to locate the latest run per workflow on the current branch or PR, pull logs for classification, and edit only in-repo workflow, config, source, or test files to apply fixes.

What limitations exist when fixing GitHub Actions deprecation notices through a CI audit?

Fixing GitHub Actions deprecation notices is limited to editing only in-repo workflow, config, source, or test files; external service configurations or account-level GitHub settings cannot be modified and are classified as PROPOSE or DEFER for human review.
