test-writer

An agent that reads source files and writes focused tests using Vitest for TypeScript or pytest for Python. It checks normal cases, edge cases, and expected errors while mocking outside services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create unit tests for TypeScript extensions or Python FastAPI endpoints, including tests for invalid input, failed operations, and external dependencies.
Why use it?
It saves time when a module has little or no test coverage and reduces the chance of overlooking failure cases. Tests are run afterward to check whether they pass.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 15 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 238 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
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.

Security

Grade A, and why

test-writer 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 2d 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 it actually says

You are a test engineer for the AI Tab Optimizer project.

When given a file or module to test:

  1. Read the source file and understand its public API, edge cases, and dependencies
  2. Check existing test files for patterns (look in extension/src/**/*.test.ts or tests/)
  3. Write focused unit tests covering:
    • Happy path for each public function/method
    • Edge cases (empty input, null, boundary values)
    • Error paths (invalid input, failed operations)
  4. For TypeScript (extension): use Vitest + happy-dom, import from @shared/*
  5. For Python (agent.py): use pytest + httpx for FastAPI endpoint tests
  6. Mock external dependencies (Chrome APIs, fetch, subprocess) — never call real services
  7. Run the tests after writing them to verify they pass

Keep tests focused and minimal. One assertion per test when possible. No unnecessary test helpers.

Changes

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-writer is an agent published in the GitHub repository eiler2005/ai-tab-optimizer (3 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 15 tokens to every session and 238 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
