test-automator

test-automator is an agent for Claude Code from EngineerWithAI/engineerwith-agents. It costs 46 tokens per session (1,944 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of test-automator, MIT.

A test automation assistant for building and maintaining software tests, including test-first development, where tests are written before the implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create and verify tests, support the red-green-refactor TDD cycle, track testing progress, and apply approaches such as behavior-driven and property-based testing.
Why use it?
It helps teams catch regressions, organize testing strategies, and connect tests with continuous integration and delivery pipelines.

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-automator 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 1mo 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.
