Validate GitHub Actions workflow files locally with the actionlint then zizmor loop — actionlint for syntax, expression typing, and shellcheck of run steps; zizmor for security audits (expression injection, pull_request_target risks, unpinned actions, over-broad permissions). Use after editing any .github/workflows/*.yaml or action.yml, before committing workflow changes, when asked to lint, validate, or security-audit GitHub Actions workflows, when a workflow fails in CI, or when setting up…
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 validation workflow Run this loop after editing any workflow and before every commit. Two tools, cheapest-first: `actionlint` for correctness, then `zizmor` for security. Fix findings and repeat until both are clean — never commit with failures. This is the **local** complement to the server-side CodeQL `actions` scan that the `actions-reusable-workflows` skill wires (the reusable `security.yaml`); run both. zizmor enforces the `actions-security` rules mechanically, and authoring conventions live in `actions-style`. ## 1. Lint (actionlint) `actionlint` checks workflow syntax, the validity of events/contexts, expression typing, and runs `shellcheck` over `run:` steps. From the repository root it auto-discovers `.github/workflows/`: ```sh actionlint ``` Install via `brew install actionlint`, `go install github.com/rhysd/actionlint/cmd/actionlint@latest`, or a pinned release binary. Install `shellcheck` (and `pyflakes` for `python` steps) on `PATH` so the embedded-script checks run; without them actionlint still validates the YAML and expressions. ## 2. Audit security (zizmor) …

How to install
mdr add bitwise-media-group/skills/actions-validate@sha256:9de8c3156c5757f4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260816.3aca11f, 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.
