Write secure, optimized GitLab CI/CD pipelines. Use when: "create CI/CD pipeline", "GitLab CI config", "fix pipeline", ".gitlab-ci.yml", "configure runners", "pipeline optimization".

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

# GitLab CI/CD Pipeline Writing

Write production-ready GitLab CI/CD pipelines with security and optimization built in.

## When to Use

- Creating new CI/CD pipelines
- Optimizing slow or expensive pipelines
- Setting up multi-environment deployments
- Debugging pipeline failures

## Core Structure

```yaml
# .gitlab-ci.yml
stages: [build, test, deploy]

build:
  stage: build
  script: [npm ci, npm run build]
  artifacts: { paths: [dist/] }
```

See `refs/templates.md` for full Node.js, Python, and other stack-specific templates.

## GitLab vs GitHub Actions

| Concept | GitHub Actions | GitLab CI |
|---------|---------------|-----------|
| Config | `.github/workflows/*.yml` | `.gitlab-ci.yml` |
| Grouping | `jobs:` | `stages:` |
| Triggers | `on:` | `rules:` |
| Secrets | `${{ secrets.X }}` | `$VARIABLE` |
| Artifacts | `actions/upload-artifact` | Built-in |
| Caching | `actions/cache` | Built-in |

## Security

### Protected Variables

```yaml
deploy:
  script:
    - deploy --token $DEPLOY_TOKEN
  # Set DEPLOY_TOKEN as protected in GitLab UI
```

### Restrict Execution

```yaml
deploy:
  rules:
    - if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == "main"
      when: manual  # Require approval

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mikeparcewski/wicked-garden/wicked-garden-platform-gitlab-ci@sha256:c79cc0105783eea1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.ba116c9, 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.
