CI/CD Diagnostics Skill

Use this skill to generate a data-only diagnostics report for release engineering.

When to Use

• Inventory current pipeline behavior with measurable numbers.
• Produce a single metric table with command-backed evidence.
• Explicitly mark missing data as blocked with the exact reason.

Workflow

1. Collect system-shape, PR lifecycle, queue, conflict, sprint, and backlog metrics.
2. Prefer direct gh/API evidence and deterministic calculations.
3. If a metric cannot be retrieved, emit BLOCKED: <reason> with the failed command or missing source.
4. Return one table only: Metric | Value | Source/command used.
5. Do not include recommendations, root-cause analysis, or fixes.

Output Contract

• Exactly one filled table with all required metrics.
• No narrative analysis.
• No guessed values.
