Github workflow

GitHub Workflow Skill

Use this skill to operate GitHub Actions workflows and workflow runs through the packaged launcher and local CLI runtime.

Within Orbit's shared provider framework, this skill is one implementation of the ci capability.

Runtime and execution

Always run the packaged launcher through ${GITHUB_WORKFLOW_SKILL_DIR} so it works from the user's current working directory:

• macOS/Linux: ${GITHUB_WORKFLOW_SKILL_DIR}/bin/github-workflow
• Windows: ${GITHUB_WORKFLOW_SKILL_DIR}\bin\github-workflow.cmd

${GITHUB_WORKFLOW_SKILL_DIR} is a documentation placeholder, not a guaranteed shell environment variable. Resolve BIN to a real launcher path once before the first CLI call. Do not call node app/dist/cli.js directly.

Scope and boundaries

• GitHub Actions workflows and workflow runs only.
• CLI-mediated operations only.
• Do not call GitHub REST endpoints directly from skill content.
• Workflow runs map to the shared ci.job.*, ci.build.*, and ci.queue.* contract.
