# CI/CD Debugger Skill
## Trigger: /cicd [paste error log]

When the user shares CI/CD failure logs:

1. Identify the CI platform:
 - GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins

2. Parse error:
 - Find the actual error (not just the first red line)
 - Check for common issues:
 - Missing secrets/env variables
 - Version mismatches (Node, Python, etc.)
 - Permission denied errors
 - Timeout issues
 - Cache invalidation problems

3. Read the pipeline config file:
 - .github/workflows/*.yml
 - .gitlab-ci.yml
 - Jenkinsfile

4. Output format:
---

How CI/CD Debugger Works

CI/CD Debugger reads your pipeline configuration and error logs, identifies the failing step, cross-references common failure patterns for your CI platform (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.), and provides step-by-step resolution.

When to Use CI/CD Debugger

Saves hours when a CI pipeline fails with an obscure error that works locally — it understands platform-specific quirks like runner environment differences, caching issues, and permission problems.

Key Strengths

Understands platform-specific CI/CD quirks and limitations
Cross-references error patterns from common failure databases
Provides fixes tailored to your exact pipeline configuration
Handles GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and other major platforms
