GitHub Actions Troubleshooting Skill

Use the gh CLI and Git to diagnose and fix GitHub Actions workflow failures, particularly for Go projects. This skill helps identify whether failures are due to code issues or environment/configuration problems.

Workflow Analysis

Check the status of recent workflow runs:

gh run list --repo owner/repo --limit 10

View details of a specific failing workflow:

gh run view <run-id> --repo owner/repo

Get logs for failed jobs only:

gh run view <run-id> --repo owner/repo --log-failed

Distinguishing Issue Types

1. Code Issues: Failures in compilation, tests, or linting that occur consistently across environments
2. Environment Issues: Problems with dependency resolution, tool installation, or type-checking in CI that work locally

Common Go CI Fixes

Linter Configuration Issues

• Look for "undefined" reference errors that indicate import resolution problems
• Try minimal linter configs that disable type-checking linters
• Use golangci-lint run --disable-all --enable=gofmt for basic syntax checking

Dependency Resolution

• Verify go.mod and go.sum are consistent
• Run go mod tidy to resolve dependency conflicts
• Check that required dependencies are properly declared

Diagnostic Commands

Check specific workflow job logs:

gh run view --job <job-id> --repo owner/repo

Download workflow artifacts for inspection:

gh run download <run-id> --repo owner/repo

Troubleshooting Workflow

1. Identify which jobs are failing and which are passing
2. Examine error messages for clues about the nature of the issue
3. Determine if the issue is reproducible locally
4. Apply targeted fixes based on issue type
5. Monitor subsequent workflow runs to verify resolution
