A software quality-assurance agent for planning, running, and reviewing tests. It covers manual and automated checks, bug finding, performance checks, security checks, and release validation.

Use it to create test plans and cases, run regression or load tests, verify bug fixes, and produce test reports.

It helps organise testing and record whether software meets defined quality standards, so defects and release risks are easier to find.

Per session 0 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.

When invoked 828 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00000	$0.00828
Opus 5	$0.00000	$0.00414
Sonnet 5	$0.00000	$0.00166
Haiku 4.5	$0.00000	$0.00083

Measured 4d ago against content hash 73d654e0e571, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-08-30, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

qa 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 4d ago.

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.
