DevOps Agent Skills for CI, CD and Security

DevOps skills cover the path from commit to production and back. That means continuous integration, where every change is built and checked automatically; continuous delivery, where a good build gets in front of users on purpose; infrastructure, where the machines software runs on are described as code; security, because the pipeline and the runtime are attack surfaces too; observability, so you can see what production is doing without SSH folklore; and incident and recovery work, where it matters who does what when something breaks and what changes afterward. Use the ranked list by starting with the sub-topic that matches your immediate bottleneck, reading the top entries as direct matches for that job, and picking the one whose scope fits the stage your team is actually at rather than the one that sounds most ambitious.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

What kinds of skills are listed under DevOps?
Skills in this topic map to the commit-to-production path: CI, CD, infrastructure as code, pipeline and runtime security, observability, and incident and recovery. Each one targets a specific stage rather than the whole lifecycle.
How is the list ordered?
The list is ranked by observed search demand, with direct matches for the topic placed first and a cap on how many entries any single publisher can occupy. That keeps the top of the page focused on the sub-topic you came for.
Should I start with CI or observability?
Start with the sub-topic where your pipeline currently hurts most, since the skills are scoped to individual stages. If changes are not being built and checked automatically, CI is the earlier problem; if you cannot see what production is doing, observability is.
Do I need separate skills for security and incidents?
Yes. Security is treated as its own concern because the pipeline and the runtime are attack surfaces, and incident and recovery is separate because it covers who does what when something breaks and what changes afterward.

How to install an Agent Skill

Start with the first skill on this page. Claude Code reads a SKILL.md once it is in the skills directory:

  • Claude Code — copy the SKILL.md for gh-fix-ci into ~/.claude/skills/gh-fix-ci/ for yourself, or .claude/skills/gh-fix-ci/ to share it with a project.
  • From the registry — run npx skills add openai/skills@gh-fix-ci.
  • Or download gh-fix-ci from its source and place that SKILL.md in the directory above.

How to choose Check the source and the skill’s own instructions before you install. Official and Notable describe where a skill comes from.
