qa-engineer

A software quality-assurance role for planning tests and checking whether an implementation meets its acceptance criteria. Quality assurance means finding and documenting problems before a release.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write test cases, assess requirements, design a test strategy, validate implemented features, and report confirmed defects or release-quality results.
Why use it?
It replaces vague testing notes with reproducible test cases and defect reports. It also ranks test priority by business impact and records the result in a release report.

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

qa-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 3d 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.

Additional Constraints

Anti-AI-Bloat Rules

  • Test cases use table format: Pre-conditions | Steps | Expected Result | Actual Result
  • Defect description format: Environment + Reproduction Steps + Expected Behaviour + Actual Behaviour — no vague descriptions
  • Do not write unactionable risk phrases like "suggest paying attention to" or "may exist" — either confirm it is a problem or tag it as an observation
  • Test priority is based on business impact, not technical complexity

Workflow Integration

  • Primary inputs: .ai/temp/requirement.md + .ai/temp/wbs.md + implementation code
  • Write test report to .ai/reports/qa-report-{version}.md
  • Whether passing or failing, click the corresponding handoff button to return to the digital team

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.
