Reusable Workflows

Reusable workflows are designed to encapsulate common CI/CD patterns that can be shared across multiple repositories. They allow you to define a workflow once and reuse it in the job-scope of other workflows. This reduces duplication and enables building generic workflows for common tasks.

🎉 Create Release

Click to expand

.github/workflows/create-release.yaml is a workflow used to create releases using semantic-release.

Usage

jobs:
  release:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/create-release.yaml@{ref} # ref
    secrets:
      APP_PRIVATE_KEY: ${{ secrets.APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
APP_PRIVATE_KEY Secret - Yes GitHub App private key
dry-run Input (boolean) false No Run semantic-release in dry-run mode (no tags or publishes)

🔀 Enable Auto-Merge

Click to expand

.github/workflows/enable-auto-merge.yaml is a workflow that approves and enables auto-merge on pull requests from trusted bots and maintainers.

Usage

jobs:
  auto-merge:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/enable-auto-merge.yaml@{ref} # ref
    secrets:

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
APP_PRIVATE_KEY Secret - Yes GitHub App private key

📦 Publish App

Click to expand

.github/workflows/publish-app.yaml is a workflow used to build and publish a containerized app and its Kubernetes manifests to GHCR as cosign-signed OCI artifacts. It builds and pushes the container image (tagged with the semantic version derived from the git tag — e.g. 1.2.3 from a v1.2.3 tag — plus sha-<sha> and latest), pins the built image digest into the deployment manifest's app-name container, pushes the manifests directory as a Flux-compatible OCI artifact (ghcr.io/<owner>/<repo>/manifests), and signs both the image and the manifests artifact with keyless cosign (Fulcio/Rekor via GitHub OIDC).

Usage

on:
  push:
    tags:
      - "v*"

jobs:
  publish-app:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/publish-app.yaml@{ref} # ref
    permissions:
      contents: read # checkout
      packages: write # push image + manifests OCI artifact
      id-token: write # keyless cosign signing
    with:
      app-name: my-app # container name in deploy/deployment.yaml
      deploy-path: ./deploy # optional

Note: Must be invoked from a semver tag (vX.Y.Z) — Docker semver tagging and Flux OCIRepository semver selection depend on it. The calling job must grant packages: write and id-token: write (and contents: read for checkout); no secrets are required (auth uses the GHCR-scoped GITHUB_TOKEN).

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
app-name Input (string) - Yes Container name in the deployment manifest to pin to the built image digest
deploy-path Input (string) ./deploy No Path to the Kubernetes manifests directory packaged as the OCI artifact

📦 Publish .NET Library

Click to expand

.github/workflows/publish-dotnet-library.yaml is a workflow used to publish .NET libraries to NuGet and GHCR.

Usage

jobs:
  publish-library:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/publish-dotnet-library.yaml@{ref} # ref
    secrets:
      NUGET_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.NUGET_API_KEY }}

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
NUGET_API_KEY Secret - No NuGet API key (required when dry-run is false)
dry-run Input (boolean) false No Skip publish (validate workflow interface only)

🧪 Run .NET Tests

Click to expand

.github/workflows/run-dotnet-tests.yaml is a workflow used to test .NET solutions or projects across multiple operating systems. Coverage is merged into a single Cobertura report and uploaded to GitHub Code Quality (native PR coverage).

Usage

jobs:
  dotnet-test:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/run-dotnet-tests.yaml@{ref} # ref
    permissions:
      contents: read
      packages: read
      code-quality: write # required for GitHub Code Quality coverage upload
    secrets:
      APP_PRIVATE_KEY: ${{ secrets.APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}

Note: The calling workflow must grant code-quality: write (otherwise the run fails at startup). Coverage requires the repo's Code Quality to be enabled (Settings → Code quality).

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
APP_PRIVATE_KEY Secret - Yes GitHub App private key

📝 Scan for TODO Comments

Click to expand

.github/workflows/scan-for-todo-comments.yaml is a workflow used to scan for TODOs in code and create GitHub issues.

Usage

jobs:
  todos:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/scan-for-todo-comments.yaml@{ref} # ref
    secrets:
      APP_PRIVATE_KEY: ${{ secrets.APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
APP_PRIVATE_KEY Secret - Yes GitHub App private key

🔄 Sync Cluster Policies

Click to expand

.github/workflows/sync-cluster-policies.yaml is a workflow used to sync upstream Kyverno policies to a target directory.

Usage

jobs:
  sync-cluster-policies:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/sync-cluster-policies.yaml@{ref} # ref
    secrets:
      APP_PRIVATE_KEY: ${{ secrets.APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}
    with:
      kyverno-policies-dir: policies/kyverno

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
APP_PRIVATE_KEY Secret - Yes GitHub App private key
kyverno-policies-dir Input (string) - Yes Directory to sync Kyverno policies to
dry-run Input (boolean) false No Skip sync and PR creation (validate workflow interface only)

🔄 Template Sync

Click to expand

.github/workflows/template-sync.yaml keeps a repository in sync with an upstream template repository via AndreasAugustin/actions-template-sync, opening a PR with any incoming template changes. List the files this repository owns (and that must never be overwritten by the template) in a .templatesyncignore file at the repo root — everything else the template ships is kept in sync.

Usage

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: "0 6 * * 1"
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  template-sync:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/template-sync.yaml@{ref} # ref
    with:
      source-repo-path: devantler-tech/gitops-tenant-template
    secrets:
      APP_PRIVATE_KEY: ${{ secrets.APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}

By default the sync PR is opened with a GitHub App token (use-app-token: true) so it triggers the caller's CI; this needs the APP_ID variable and the APP_PRIVATE_KEY secret. Set use-app-token: false to fall back to GITHUB_TOKEN (the PR then will not trigger on: pull_request checks).

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
APP_PRIVATE_KEY Secret - When use-app-token GitHub App private key (paired with the APP_ID variable)
source-repo-path Input (string) - Yes owner/repo of the upstream template to sync from
upstream-branch Input (string) main No Branch of the template repository to sync from
pr-title Input (string) chore: sync changes from the upstream template No Title of the sync PR (Conventional-Commit by default)
pr-commit-msg Input (string) chore: sync changes from the upstream template No Commit message for the sync PR
pr-labels Input (string) dependencies,automation No Comma-separated labels for the sync PR
pr-branch-name-prefix Input (string) chore/template-sync No Prefix for the branch the sync PR is opened from
template-sync-ignore-file-path Input (string) .templatesyncignore No Path to the file listing consumer-owned (non-synced) files
use-app-token Input (boolean) true No Open the sync PR with a GitHub App token so it triggers the caller's CI
dry-run Input (boolean) false No Skip the sync and PR creation (validate workflow interface only)

Note: The calling workflow runs the sync job with contents: write and pull-requests: write (declared by the reusable workflow).

🔄 Update Agent Skills

Click to expand

.github/workflows/update-agent-skills.yaml is a workflow used to keep installed agent skills (Copilot, Claude Code, …) up-to-date via gh skill update --all, opening a PR with any changes. Each installed SKILL.md's metadata.github-* frontmatter is the source of truth — no lockfile is required. Works with any mix of gh skill-compatible upstreams.

Usage

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: "0 6 * * *"
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  update-agent-skills:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/update-agent-skills.yaml@{ref} # ref
    permissions:
      contents: write
      pull-requests: write
    with:
      dir: .agents/skills

The workflow assumes skills were previously installed with devantler-tech/actions/setup-agent-skills (or gh skill install directly) — the committed SKILL.md files carry the upstream pointers.

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
dir Input (string) . No Directory to scan for installed skills (passed to gh skill update --dir)
unpin Input (boolean) false No When true, pass --unpin (clear pinned versions)
gh-version Input (string) 2.90.0 No Minimum required gh version (must support gh skill)
pr-branch Input (string) deps/agent-skills-update No Branch the update PR is opened from
pr-title Input (string) chore(deps): update agent skills No Title of the update PR
pr-labels Input (string) dependencies,automation No Comma-separated labels for the update PR
commit-message Input (string) chore(deps): update agent skills No Commit message for the update PR
dry-run Input (boolean) false No Skip update and PR creation (validate workflow interface only)

Note: The calling workflow must grant contents: write and pull-requests: write permissions.

✅ Validate Go Project

Features

  • Automated Linting: Runs golangci-lint and mega-linter to ensure code quality
  • Auto-fix: Automatically applies linter fixes and commits them
  • Copilot Integration: When linting fails, automatically prompts Copilot on the PR to fix the remaining issues
  • Code Coverage: Generates a Cobertura report and uploads it to GitHub Code Quality (native PR coverage).

Usage

jobs:
  go-test:
    uses: devantler-tech/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/validate-go-project.yaml@{ref} # ref

    secrets:
      APP_PRIVATE_KEY: ${{ secrets.APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}
    with:
      pr-owner: ${{ github.event.pull_request.user.login }} # optional

Note: The calling workflow must grant code-quality: write so coverage can be uploaded to GitHub Code Quality. Coverage requires the repo's Code Quality to be enabled (Settings → Code quality).

Secrets and Inputs

Key Type Default Required Description
APP_PRIVATE_KEY Secret - No GitHub App private key for authenticating the workflow
pr-owner Input (string) - No Pull request author login (used to disable auto-commit for bot PRs)
