Secure Workflows, Simplified

Cicada is a Free and Open Source platform for running software automation workflows.

(No credit card required)

on git.push where event.branch is "main"

cache node_modules using hashOf("package-lock.json")

shell npm install
shell npm run test

Why Cicada?

Use A Real Programming Language

on git.push

fn test(compiler):
  env.CC = compiler

  echo Testing (compiler)
  shell make clean all


let compilers = ["gcc", "clang"]

for compiler in compilers:
  test(compiler)

You deserve better then YAML.

With Cicada, write infrastructure as code using a programming language specifically designed for automation workflows.

Say goodbye to Bash/Python scripts!

Security Made Easy, Not Painful

Cicada makes writing secure workflows a breeze

Prevents Command Injection Expressions passed to commands are autotomatically escaped.

let name = "; rm -rf /"

echo Hello, (name)

Output: Hello, ; rm -rf /

Doesn't Expose Secrets By default, secrets are not exposed as environment variables.

echo TOKEN: (secret.TOKEN)

echo TOKEN: $TOKEN

Output:

TOKEN: SUPER_SECRET
TOKEN:

Strict Permissions By default, workflows have read only access to code and nothing else.

git tag -a v1.2.3 -m "Malicious Tag"

git push v1.2.3

Output: remote: Write access to repository not granted.
