README (SKILL.md)

GitHub Actions Runtime Regression Audit

Use this skill to detect runtime regressions between historical baseline runs and current runs.

What this skill does

  • Reads baseline and current GitHub Actions run JSON exports (gh run view --json ...)
  • Calculates average and p95 runtime per repository + workflow + job
  • Compares current metrics against baseline and ranks largest regressions
  • Flags warn/critical regressions by absolute seconds and percent delta
  • Emits text summary for humans or JSON for automation

Inputs

Required:

  • BASELINE_GLOB (glob for baseline run JSON files)
  • CURRENT_GLOB (glob for current run JSON files)

Optional:

  • TOP_N (default: 20)
  • OUTPUT_FORMAT (text or json, default: text)
  • WARN_DELTA_SECONDS (default: 30)
  • CRITICAL_DELTA_SECONDS (default: 90)
  • WARN_DELTA_PERCENT (default: 15)
  • CRITICAL_DELTA_PERCENT (default: 35)
  • FAIL_ON_CRITICAL (0 or 1, default: 0)
  • WORKFLOW_MATCH (regex, optional)
  • WORKFLOW_EXCLUDE (regex, optional)
  • JOB_MATCH (regex, optional)
  • JOB_EXCLUDE (regex, optional)
  • REPO_MATCH (regex, optional)
  • REPO_EXCLUDE (regex, optional)

Collect run JSON

gh run view \x3Crun-id> --json databaseId,workflowName,headBranch,headSha,url,repository,jobs \
  > artifacts/github-actions/run-\x3Crun-id>.json

Capture a stable baseline window (for example previous 2 weeks), then current runs from latest commits.

Run

Text report:

BASELINE_GLOB='artifacts/github-actions/baseline/*.json' \
CURRENT_GLOB='artifacts/github-actions/current/*.json' \
TOP_N=15 \
WARN_DELTA_SECONDS=45 \
CRITICAL_DELTA_SECONDS=120 \
bash skills/github-actions-runtime-regression-audit/scripts/runtime-regression-audit.sh

JSON output with CI gate:

BASELINE_GLOB='artifacts/github-actions/baseline/*.json' \
CURRENT_GLOB='artifacts/github-actions/current/*.json' \
OUTPUT_FORMAT=json \
FAIL_ON_CRITICAL=1 \
bash skills/github-actions-runtime-regression-audit/scripts/runtime-regression-audit.sh

Run with bundled fixtures:

BASELINE_GLOB='skills/github-actions-runtime-regression-audit/fixtures/baseline-*.json' \
CURRENT_GLOB='skills/github-actions-runtime-regression-audit/fixtures/current-*.json' \
bash skills/github-actions-runtime-regression-audit/scripts/runtime-regression-audit.sh

Output contract

  • Exit 0 in reporting mode (default)
  • Exit 1 when FAIL_ON_CRITICAL=1 and at least one job crosses critical regression thresholds
  • text mode prints summary + top regressions + new jobs without baseline
  • json mode outputs summary, ranked regressions, and newly observed jobs
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it claims: parse local GitHub Actions run JSON exports and report runtime regressions. Before running: (1) inspect the full runtime-regression-audit.sh file locally (the provided listing was truncated here, so verify the file's tail and final output/exit logic), (2) run it first against the bundled fixtures to confirm behavior, (3) avoid overly-broad globs (they can make the script parse unrelated JSON files), and (4) run with OUTPUT_FORMAT=json and review output before using FAIL_ON_CRITICAL=1 in automation. If you need higher assurance, open the full script to confirm there are no network calls, credential reads, or command execution paths beyond parsing and local reporting.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: github-actions-runtime-regression-audit Version: 1.0.0 The skill is a legitimate utility designed to audit GitHub Actions runtime regressions by comparing baseline and current JSON run exports. The core logic is contained in a Python script (embedded in scripts/runtime-regression-audit.sh) that parses local JSON files, calculates job durations, and identifies performance deltas based on user-defined thresholds. No evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection was found; the script operates strictly on local data provided via environment variables.
Capability Assessment
✓ Purpose & Capability
Name/description ask to compare baseline vs current GH Actions run exports. The skill only requires bash and python3 and operates on user-supplied JSON run exports (BASELINE_GLOB, CURRENT_GLOB). Those requirements are proportionate and expected for this task.
ℹ Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the user to capture GH run JSONs (gh run view) and run the included script with globs; the script parses those files, computes averages/p95 and flags regressions. This is within scope. Note: the script will read any files matched by the supplied globs, so a careless glob could cause it to parse unrelated JSON files — expected behavior but something to be cautious about.
✓ Install Mechanism
No install spec (instruction-only plus a shipped script). No downloads or package installs. Lowest-risk install surface.
✓ Credentials
No required credentials or config paths. The script uses only environment variables that control glob patterns and thresholds (declared in SKILL.md). No secrets are requested or used.
✓ Persistence & Privilege
always:false and no install hooks. The skill does not request persistent/privileged presence or modify other skills or system-wide configs.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install github-actions-runtime-regression-audit
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /github-actions-runtime-regression-audit
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
