Skill instructions
CircleCI Config Overview Use this skill to improve CircleCI performance and stability without changing product behavior. Focus on measured bottlenecks first, then implement the smallest safe config changes with clear validation criteria. Read references/cache-optimization.md when the request involves savecache, restorecache, persisttoworkspace, attachworkspace, cache key design, dependency caching, lockfiles, or complaints about low cache hit rates, oversized caches, or wasted persistence steps. Read references/persisting-data.md when the request involves choosing between caches, workspaces, and artifacts, or when data is being moved between jobs inefficiently. Read references/test-results-and-splitting.md when the request involves slow test jobs, parallelism, flaky test visibility, missing JUnit XML, or circleci tests run. Read references/patterns.md when the request involves approvals, branch/tag filters, schedules, deploy flow structure, or environment promotion patterns. Inputs To
