Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/levnikolaevich/claude-code-skills --skill ln-732-cicd-generator
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads ln-732-cicd-generator automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Paths: File paths (references/, ../ln-*) are relative to this skill directory.

ln-732-cicd-generator

Type: L3 Worker Category: 7XX Project Bootstrap

Generates GitHub Actions CI pipeline for automated testing and validation.


Purpose & Scope

Creates CI/CD workflow for GitHub:

  • Does: Generate .github/workflows/ci.yml with lint, test, build, docker jobs
  • Does NOT: Configure deployment, manage secrets, set up CD pipelines

Inputs

InputSourceDescription
Stack Typeln-730 coordinatorbackend-dotnet, backend-python
VersionsAuto-detectedNode.js, .NET or Python versions
Frontend PathAuto-detectedPath to frontend directory
Build CommandsAuto-detectednpm scripts, dotnet/pytest commands

Outputs

FilePurposeTemplate
.github/workflows/ci.ymlMain CI pipelinegithub_ci_dotnet.template.yml or github_ci_python.template.yml

Workflow

Phase 1: Stack Analysis

Determine which template to use:

DetectionBackend Template
.sln or .csproj presentgithub_ci_dotnet.template.yml
requirements.txt or pyproject.toml presentgithub_ci_python.template.yml

Detect commands:

  • Frontend: Read scripts from package.json (lint, build, test)
  • .NET: Standard dotnet restore/build/test
  • Python: pip install, ruff lint, pytest

Phase 2: Variable Substitution

Replace template variables:

VariableSourceDefault
{{NODE_VERSION}}package.json engines22
{{DOTNET_VERSION}}*.csproj TargetFramework9.0.x
{{PYTHON_VERSION}}pyproject.toml3.12
{{FRONTEND_PATH}}Directory detectionsrc/frontend

Phase 3: Directory Creation

Create .github/workflows/ directory if not exists.

Phase 4: File Generation

Generate ci.yml from selected template:

  1. Check if workflow already exists (warn before overwrite)
  2. Apply variable substitution
  3. Write to .github/workflows/ci.yml
  4. Validate YAML syntax

dockerBuild images, health checksfrontend, backend

Frontend Job Steps

  1. Checkout code
  2. Setup Node.js with caching
  3. Install dependencies (npm ci)
  4. Run linter (npm run lint)
  5. Build application (npm run build)
  6. Run tests (npm test)

Backend Job Steps (.NET)

  1. Checkout code
  2. Setup .NET SDK
  3. Restore dependencies (dotnet restore)
  4. Build (dotnet build)
  5. Run tests (dotnet test)

Backend Job Steps (Python)

  1. Checkout code
  2. Setup Python with pip caching
  3. Install dependencies (pip install -r requirements.txt)
  4. Run linter (ruff check)
  5. Run tests (pytest)

Docker Job Steps

  1. Checkout code
  2. Build images (docker compose build)
  3. Start containers (docker compose up -d)
  4. Wait for startup (30 seconds)
  5. Health check frontend (port 3000)
  6. Health check backend (port 5000/8000)
  7. Show logs on failure
  8. Stop containers (docker compose down)

Best Practices Applied

PracticeImplementation
Dependency cachingnpm cache, pip cache
Pinned versionsactions/checkout@v4, setup-node@v4
Parallel jobsfrontend and backend run in parallel
Fail fastdocker job waits for both to succeed
Clean updocker compose down runs always
Debug supportlogs shown on failure

Quality Criteria

Generated workflow must:

  • Pass YAML syntax validation
  • Use pinned action versions (not @latest)
  • Include dependency caching
  • Have health checks for docker job
  • Clean up resources on completion

Critical Notes

  1. GitHub Actions Only: This skill generates only GitHub Actions workflows. No Azure/GitLab support.
  2. Template-based: Use templates from references/. Do NOT hardcode workflow contents.
  3. Idempotent: Check if .github/workflows/ exists. Warn before overwriting ci.yml.
  4. Version Detection: Use detected versions, not hardcoded defaults.

Definition of Done

  • .github/workflows/ci.yml generated and passes YAML validation
  • Pipeline includes lint, build, test, and docker jobs
  • All action versions pinned (not @latest)
