Provide CI/CD best practices and pipeline templates for GitHub Actions and GitLab CI, recommending configurations based on project type (frontend, backend, fullstack, library, monorepo, mobile). Trigger when users ask about setting up CI/CD, automating builds, improving pipelines, or mention keywords like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, pipeline templates, or deployment automation.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# CI/CD Configuration Best Practices This skill provides CI/CD pipeline templates and best practices for **GitHub Actions** and **GitLab CI**. It recommends configurations based on project type, helping teams quickly set up reliable, secure, and efficient pipelines. ## How to Use When a user describes their project (language, framework, deployment target), recommend the most appropriate pipeline template below. Adapt stages, caching strategies, and deployment steps to match their stack. --- ## General Best Practices ### Pipeline Design Principles 1. **Fail fast**: Run linting and unit tests before expensive integration or E2E tests. 2. **Cache aggressively**: Cache dependency directories (`node_modules`, `.pip_cache`, `.m2`, `.gradle`) to speed up builds. 3. **Pin versions**: Pin CI runner images, tool versions, and action versions to SHA or exact tags — never use `latest`. 4. **Least privilege**: Use minimal permissions for tokens and credentials. Prefer OIDC over long-lived secrets where supported. 5. **Parallelize**: Split test suites across parallel jobs. Use matrix builds for multi-version testing. …

How to install
mdr add zebbern/claude-code-guide/pipeline-blueprint@sha256:54e1ca01d92d40fcThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260531.164971d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
