Protect CI Workflows
Protect CI Workflows: what it does, its label on each agent, what it misses, and examples.
Catalog policy protect-ci-workflows, version 0.2.7, labelled asks on Claude Code.
What it does
Asks a person before an agent weakens the checks that review its work. Shell guard refuses writes to .github/workflows/, .github/actions/, .github/dependabot.y*ml (redirect, rm/mv/tee/sed -i, cp into, git checkout/restore, cmdlets); reads and chock sync pass. Edit/Write: tool_use gate asks a person before a write to CI, hook or bot config (GitLab, Jenkins, CircleCI, CODEOWNERS, husky, more). Not judged: deletions, empty writes, shell writes to non-GitHub CI paths; plugin installs ship no gate.
On each agent
| Agent | Label | What it does there |
|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | Asks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Asks on an agent's file writes and at turn end |
| Cursor | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Refuses an agent's file writes and refuses at turn end, because this client cannot prompt at either point |
| Codex | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Refuses an agent's file writes and refuses at turn end, because this client cannot prompt at either point. If the hook errors, the action goes through (not witnessed; the vendor's row is only partly live-run) |
| GitHub Copilot | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Refuses at turn end only, because this client cannot prompt there. It does not check a file write when it happens. If the hook errors, the action goes through (not witnessed; the vendor's row is only partly live-run) |
| Devin | Blocks | Refuses a matched shell command before it runs. Refuses at turn end only, because this client cannot prompt there. It does not check a file write when it happens. If the hook errors, the action goes through (vendor docs only, not witnessed) |
