GH Fix CI

A Codex Skill for investigating failing GitHub Actions checks, reading logs with gh, and preparing a bounded fix plan.

Overview

Use this reference when a current branch or pull request has failing GitHub Actions checks and the next step is diagnosis before implementation.

What this Skill can do

  • Uses gh to locate PR checks and workflow runs.
  • Extracts actionable GitHub Actions log snippets.
  • Separates external CI providers from GitHub Actions scope.

Best use cases

  • Diagnosing a failing GitHub Actions run on a PR.
  • Summarizing log context before proposing a fix.
  • Rechecking CI status after a targeted patch.

Not suitable for

  • Debugging non-GitHub CI systems as if they were Actions.
  • Implementing a fix before the failure context is known.
  • Assuming gh authentication or workflow scopes are already available.

Inputs

  • Repository path and optional PR number or URL.
  • GitHub CLI authentication state.
  • Relevant failing check or workflow run context.

Outputs

  • Failing check summary with run URL when available.
  • Relevant log excerpt and failure classification.
  • Fix plan and verification recommendation.

Compatibility

Tools: Codex

Environments: Codex CLI or compatible Codex skill runtime, GitHub repository with Actions checks

  • Requires gh CLI access to the target repository.
  • Only GitHub Actions logs are in scope; external provider URLs remain reference-only.

SkillDex links to the source and does not inspect CI logs itself.
