SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps users quickly pinpoint the root cause of CI failures by focusing on artifact integrity and deterministic checks, reducing debugging time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Artifact Verification: Ensures the integrity of CI run artifacts.
  • Deterministic Reruns: Enables reproducible test runs based on failing artifacts.
  • Root-Cause Analysis: Isolates failure causes using evidence-first checks.
  • Use Case: When a CI build fails, this skill can verify the artifact, attempt a deterministic rerun, and provide diagnostics to quickly identify why the build broke.

Quick Start

Use the ci-failure-triage skill to triage the CI failure identified by the run ID 'run_demo' in the './triage' directory.

Frequently Asked Questions about ci-failure-triage

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I isolate the root cause of a CI failure quickly?▼

To isolate CI failure root causes quickly, automate triage by verifying artifact integrity and running deterministic checks. This approach reduces debugging time by using evidence-first diagnostics from failing runs.

How do I reproduce a failing CI run deterministically?▼

You can reproduce a failing CI run deterministically by enabling deterministic reruns based on the failing artifacts. This allows you to regenerate diagnostics and verify the exact conditions that caused the build to break.

Do I need the Gait CLI to triage CI failures and verify artifacts?▼

Yes, triaging CI failures and verifying artifact integrity requires the Gait CLI. The CLI handles artifact verification, regression initialization, and diagnostics generation for root-cause isolation.

What is artifact verification in CI failure triage?▼

Artifact verification in CI failure triage is the process of ensuring the integrity of CI run artifacts. It serves as an evidence-first check to confirm whether the build outputs themselves are compromised before deeper debugging.

How do I generate diagnostics from Gait artifacts for a broken build?▼

To generate diagnostics from Gait artifacts for a broken build, run the triage process using the specific run ID and target directory. This verifies artifact integrity and outputs evidence to pinpoint why the build failed.

What's the best way to automate debugging for failing CI pipelines?▼

The best way to automate debugging for failing CI pipelines is to implement an evidence-first triage workflow. This involves automating artifact integrity verification and deterministic reruns to isolate failure causes without manual investigation.
