CI Health Check: a /ci Skill for Claude Code

Short summary

This post introduces a reusable Claude Code skill that adds a /ci slash command for auditing GitHub Actions CI pipelines. The skill provides a red/green health board, failure triage taxonomy, post-push watcher, and workflow inventory — encoding common debugging motions that agents and humans repeatedly re-derive. It includes practical gh CLI recipes for reliably fetching failed job logs, attributing scheduled-run failures, and distinguishing broken commits from provisioning gaps and flaky external issues.
