4d Github CI

Set up GitHub CI for a 4D project. Copies the build/release GitHub Actions workflows into a target 4D project, generating the dependency "Check out" steps from Project/Sources/dependencies.json, writes FUNDING.yml when a funding section exists in private config.yml, and can push Actions secrets (including DLTK) via gh from that same config (values never printed). Use when the user wants to configure GitHub CI, add the build/release workflows, set up funding, set Action secrets, or bootstrap GitHub Actions for a new or existing 4D project.

4D GitHub CI Setup

1. Generate and copy the CI files

python "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/install_ci.py" --project /path/to/4d-project

install_ci.py generates workflows and may omit the full DLTK build block from release.yml (product-line, version, build, token) when secrets.DLTK is absent or still a placeholder in config.yml. Secret values are never printed.

2. Push Actions secrets (optional)

python "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/set_secrets.py" --project /path/to/4d-project
# or target explicitly:
python "$SKILL_DIR/scripts/set_secrets.py" --repo OWNER/REPO

If config.yml has no secrets section (or no DLTK), skip this step.

Security — do not read the config

Never read, open, or print assets/config.yml. It holds the DLTK token. Only the scripts read it; the secret only ever moves through gh via stdin. config.yml is git-ignored.
Do not echo the DLTK value, pass it as a CLI argument, or place it in a commit, workflow file, or chat message.

Notes

$SKILL_DIR is this skill's directory: for instance ~/.claude/skills/4d-github-ci.
Edit funding: in config.yml to change the funding handle for all future projects (supports github, patreon, open_collective, ko_fi, custom, ...).
