Agentic DevOps with SpecKit: Turn Specs into CI/CD Using GitHub Actions

DevOps automation shouldn’t stop at scripts and static rules. In this episode, you’ll learn how to apply agentic AI to DevOps workflows, turning specifications into intelligent CI/CD pipelines using SpecKit and GitHub Actions. You’ll see how agentic patterns enable workflows that can reason, adapt, and automate decisions — helping teams move faster with less manual effort.
