test-engineer

An automated testing specialist for code changes. It creates tests and checks how much of the code is covered by tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Adding tests for new features, updating tests after changes, and checking test coverage for bug fixes.
Why use it?
It helps catch bugs in new or modified code and highlights parts that still lack tests.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

test-engineer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

test-engineer is an agent published in the GitHub repository alexnelja/mcp-toolkit (0 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 2,253 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
