test-ephemeral

test-ephemeral is a command for coding agents from dmzoneill/redhat-ai-workflow. It costs 0 tokens per session (699 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that deploys a merge request into a temporary test environment. A merge request is a proposed code change, and an ephemeral environment is a short-lived isolated deployment for testing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test a specific merge request, optionally enabling billing testing or keeping the temporary namespace for manual checks.
Why use it?
It lets you test a proposed change in a realistic environment before merging it.

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-ephemeral 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 yesterday.

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.

Overview

Deploy and test a merge request in ephemeral environment.

Underlying Skill: test_mr_ephemeral

This command is a wrapper that calls the test_mr_ephemeral skill. For detailed process information, see skills/test_mr_ephemeral.md.

Arguments

mr_id No -

Usage

Examples

skill_run("test_mr_ephemeral", '{"mr_id": $MR_ID}')
# Test an MR
skill_run("test_mr_ephemeral", '{"mr_id": 1234}')

# Test billing ClowdApp
skill_run("test_mr_ephemeral", '{"mr_id": 1234, "billing": true}')

# Keep namespace for manual testing
skill_run("test_mr_ephemeral", '{"mr_id": 1234, "keep_namespace": true}')

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.
