test-engineer

A software testing agent that follows test-driven development and behaviour-driven development. TDD means writing a test before the code, while BDD describes expected behaviour in terms people and developers can discuss.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create and run small, targeted tests while developing or changing software, following a test-first or behaviour-focused workflow.
Why use it?
It keeps tests focused on the behaviour that matters and helps catch mistakes while code is being written. This can make changes easier to check and review.

Made for: Cursor.

Per session 3 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 492 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin unknown 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-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 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 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.
