What problem does it solve?
Skip unnecessary CI/CD operations before execution by detecting unchanged content, cached builds, and irrelevant paths to reduce workflow costs and execution time.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Reduces compute and run time in GitHub Actions by skipping non-meaningful steps.
- Applies to distribution workflows, release automation, scheduled jobs, and monorepo builds where only subsets of tasks need to run.
- Supports patterns like content comparison, path filtering, and cache-based skip to optimize pipelines.
Quick Start
Configure your GitHub Actions workflows to automatically skip non-meaningful steps when changes are not detected.
