Safe outputs are the write path for agentic workflows. Keep the main agent job read-only and use the focused reference files below.

Shared Rules

  • Prefer the most specific built-in safe output before creating a custom job.
  • Always scope mutating operations as tightly as possible.
  • For pull-request or branch mutation, always restrict allowed-files.
  • Use noop when no visible change is required after successful execution.
