Validate use when validating GitHub Actions workflows for Google Cloud and Vertex AI deployments. Trigger with phrases like "validate github actions", "setup workload identity federation", "github actions security", "deploy agent with ci/cd", or "automate vertex ai deployment". Enforces Workload Identity Federation (WIF), validates OIDC permissions, ensures least privilege IAM, and implements security best practices.

Gh Actions Validator

Overview

Validate and harden GitHub Actions workflows that deploy to Google Cloud (especially Vertex AI) using Workload Identity Federation (OIDC) instead of long-lived service account keys. Use this to audit existing workflows, propose a secure replacement, and add CI checks that prevent common credential and permission mistakes.

Prerequisites

Before using this skill, ensure:

  • GitHub repository with Actions enabled
  • Google Cloud project with billing enabled
  • gcloud CLI authenticated with admin permissions
  • Understanding of Workload Identity Federation concepts
  • GitHub repository secrets configured
  • Appropriate IAM roles for CI/CD automation

Instructions

  1. Audit Existing Workflows: Scan .github/workflows/ for security issues
  2. Validate WIF Usage: Ensure no JSON service account keys are used
  3. Check OIDC Permissions: Verify id-token: write is present
  4. Review IAM Roles: Confirm least privilege (no owner/editor roles)
  5. Add Security Scans: Include secret detection and vulnerability scanning
  6. Validate Deployments: Add post-deployment health checks
  7. Configure Monitoring: Set up alerts for deployment failures
  8. Document WIF Setup: Provide one-time WIF configuration commands

Output

  - uses: actions/checkout@v4
  - name: Authenticate to GCP (WIF)
  - name: Deploy to Vertex AI
        --project=${{ secrets.GCP_PROJECT_ID }} \
        --region=us-central1
  - name: Validate Deployment

evaluating-machine-learning-models: This skill allows Claude to evaluate machine learning models using a comprehensive suite of metrics. It should be used when the user requests model performance analysis, validation, or testing. Claude can use this skill to assess model accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and other relevant metrics. Trigger this skill when the user mentions "evaluate model", "model performance", "testing metrics", "validation results", or requests a comprehensive "model evaluation".

It should be used when the user requests the creation of a new neural network, modification of an existing one, or assistance with defining the layers, parameters, and training process. The skill is triggered by requests involving terms like "build a neural network," "define network architecture," "configure layers," or specific mentions of neural network types (e.g., "CNN," "RNN," "transformer").
