  Packaged Agent Skills generated from this repo's openapi/*.yml and the eleven
  native Arazzo workflows in ../arazzo/. Every operationId in every skill was
  verified verbatim against the specs before the file was written; cross-cutting
  rules cite ../conventions/, ../errors/, ../authentication/, ../scopes/,
  ../rate-limits/, ../lifecycle/ and ../asyncapi/.
description: >-
  Six skills covering the marquee GitHub Actions flows, chosen to span the whole
  consequence range: two are read-only (diagnose, collect), three mutate
  configuration or capacity, and one — approve a pending deployment — releases
  code to an environment and cannot be taken back. Each skill carries the
  reversibility of its own write surface, because the API has no
  Idempotency-Key header and several of its deletes are permanent.

    GitHub publishes no AGENTS.md or Agent Skills package for the Actions REST
    API. It does ship an MCP server (mcp/github-actions-mcp.yml), which covers
    only 17 of the 82 REST operations — see mcp/github-actions-tool-crosswalk.yml.
    These skills are generated, not harvested, and are marked as such.
