SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you create and modify GitHub Actions CI/CD workflows for the homelab repository without breaking conventions or promotion pipelines.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • GitHub Actions workflow authoring with guardrails: Produces validation, build, and promotion workflows that follow repo-specific patterns for tool setup, permissions, and triggers.
  • OCI artifact promotion integration: Explains the constraints needed for validated-to-stable tagging, including how idempotency works with Flux alert-driven reconciliation cycles.
  • Homelab-specific validation coverage: Supports a workflow inventory approach for Kubernetes and infrastructure directories, including schema linting and template expansion steps.

Quick Start

Ask the AI to generate a new PR validation workflow for your Kubernetes domain that follows the repo’s paths filter conventions and uses the mise-based tool setup.

Frequently Asked Questions about gha-pipelines

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I create GitHub Actions workflows for CI/CD validation without breaking existing promotion pipelines?▼

GitHub Actions CI/CD workflows should follow repo-specific patterns for tool setup, minimal permissions, and correct path-based triggers to ensure validation stages do not disrupt existing promotion pipelines.

How does OCI artifact promotion work with Flux reconciliation cycles?▼

OCI artifact promotion requires idempotent, validated-to-stable tagging that aligns with Flux alert-driven reconciliation cycles, preventing duplicate deployments during continuous reconciliation loops.

What is the best way to manage tool versions in GitHub Actions workflows?▼

Managing tool versions in GitHub Actions workflows requires a consistent mise-based setup, ensuring uniform environment configuration across validation, build, and OCI promotion stages.

How do I add path-based triggers and workflow_dispatch support to Kubernetes validation workflows?▼

Kubernetes validation workflows require correct path-based triggers using paths filter conventions and must include workflow_dispatch support to allow manual execution alongside automated PR validation.

Why does my GitHub Actions workflow fail during schema linting and template expansion?▼

Schema linting and template expansion failures often occur when workflow inventory approaches do not properly cover Kubernetes and infrastructure directories or lack proper mise-based tool versioning.

Can I use this GitHub Actions workflow authoring approach for infrastructure directories outside of Kubernetes?▼

Yes, the workflow inventory approach supports both Kubernetes and infrastructure directories, applying schema linting, template expansion, and path-based triggers to ensure comprehensive validation coverage.
