Create, edit, audit, and speed up GitHub Actions workflows using Bret Fisher's opinionated DevOps rules. Use it when the user asks to create a workflow or CI/CD pipeline, edit or add a job to an existing `.github/workflows/*` file (even a one-line change), review or harden a workflow for security, speed up slow CI, publish a container image from CI, automate releases, or mentions GHA, action pinning, or findings from gasa, zizmor, poutine, pinact, or actionlint, even if they don't say…
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
# GitHub Actions Workflow Rules Apply these defaults proactively to every workflow you touch, unless the repository has a clear conflicting convention or the user asks for a different tradeoff. The rules exist because a workflow runs arbitrary code with a token: security is built in from the first line, and speed is what keeps a workflow maintained. ## Working Style 1. Inspect existing workflow files before editing so new changes match the repository's naming, trigger, and secret conventions. 2. Prefer the smallest correct change, and fix insecure or wasteful patterns in the code you are already touching. 3. Facts are yours to find (an action's SHA, its required permissions, whether a tool supports OIDC). Decisions are the user's (adding a manual trigger, choosing a registry, creating an environment): put each one to them and wait. 4. Use placeholders for secret names, environment names, package names, and cloud roles the repo does not reveal, and list every one under **Placeholders** in the hand-back. ## Building a workflow …

How to install
mdr add bretfisher/skills/github-actions-workflow-pro@sha256:a1f6fdfa6ee7f053The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.8a9119a, 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.
