Use when the user is working with an existing Buildkite CI run and wants to understand, diagnose, or act on it. Strong signals: a buildkite.com URL, the word "buildkite", the bk CLI, the bktide tool, or a reference to a specific pipeline, build, or job. Covers intents like: "why did this build fail", "what's flaking", "summarize pass/fail rates across recent builds", "pull logs for this job", "figure out the exact command CI ran so I can reproduce it locally" (often via docker-compose), "why didn't my downstream build trigger", and debugging bk/bktide behavior itself (auth failures, query errors, sandbox issues). Do NOT use for authoring pipeline YAML or adding pipeline steps (that's buildkite:developing-pipelines). Do NOT use for meta-work on the Claude buildkite plugin itself (editing SKILL.md, reviewing pickled-claude-plugins PRs, adding reference docs under the plugin's directory). Do NOT use for GitHub Actions, PR review, app code changes, git merge conflicts, or local bk config (~/.bk/config.yml) that don't involve investigating an actual build. This skill reads and investigates CI runs that already exist.

Quick start
Copy the install prompt. Use the green button above this README.
Send it to your agent. Paste it into your coding agent’s chat and send.
Review the setup. Your agent checks the skill’s instructions, requirements, and installation scope.
Use when the user is working with an existing Buildkite CI run and wants to understand, diagnose, or act on it. Strong signals: a buildkite.com URL, the word "buildkite", the `bk` CLI, the `bktide` tool, or a reference to a specific pipeline, build, or job. Covers intents like: "why did this build fail", "what's flaking", "summarize pass/fail rates across recent builds", "pull logs for this job", "figure out the exact command CI ran so I can reproduce it locally" (often via docker-compose), "why didn't my downstream build trigger", and debugging `bk`/`bktide` behavior itself (auth failures, query errors, sandbox issues). Do NOT use for authoring pipeline YAML or adding pipeline steps (that's `buildkite:developing-pipelines`). Do NOT use for meta-work on the Claude buildkite plugin itself (editing SKILL.md, reviewing pickled-claude-plugins PRs, adding reference docs under the plugin's directory). Do NOT use for GitHub Actions, PR review, app code changes, git merge conflicts, or local `bk` config (`~/.bk/config.yml`) that don't involve investigating an actual build.
