# GitHub Actions Templates Production-ready GitHub Actions workflow patterns for testing, building, and deploying applications. ## Do not use this skill when - The task is unrelated to github actions templates - You need a different domain or tool outside this scope ## Instructions - Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs. - Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes. - Provide actionable steps and verification. - If detailed examples are required, open `resources/implementation-playbook.md`. ## Purpose Create efficient, secure GitHub Actions workflows for continuous integration and deployment across various tech stacks. ## Use this skill when - Automate testing and deployment - Build Docker images and push to registries - Deploy to Kubernetes clusters - Run security scans - Implement matrix builds for multiple environments ## Common Workflow Patterns ### Pattern 1: Test Workflow ```yaml name: Test on: push: branches: [ main, develop ] pull_request: branches: [ main ] jobs: test: runs-on: ubuntu-latest strategy: matrix: node-version: [18.x, 20.x] steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v4 - name: Use Node.js ${{ matrix.node-version }} uses: actions/setup-node@v4 with: nod

What does the github-actions-templates skill do?
Production-ready GitHub Actions workflow patterns for testing, building, and deploying applications.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill github-actions-templates --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
