web-api-tester

web-api-tester is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from 0x-Professor/Agent-Skills-Hub. It costs 23 tokens per session (314 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An API testing helper that checks web endpoints against an OpenAPI description. OpenAPI is a standard file format for documenting an API's routes, inputs, and responses.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test normal and invalid requests, check 401 and 403 errors, validate response shapes, create Bruno or Hoppscotch collections, generate optional automated tests, and report coverage.
Why use it?
It finds incorrect behavior, unhandled edge cases, authentication failures, rate-limit problems, and mismatches between documented and actual responses.

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

web-api-tester 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/api_tester.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

Web API Tester

Objective

Run endpoint-level testing against openapi.yaml and produce API quality coverage artifacts.

Required Workflow

  1. Read openapi.yaml from web-backend-builder.
  2. Build API collections for Bruno or Hoppscotch.
  3. Optionally generate automated tests in Vitest, Jest, or pytest.
  4. For each endpoint test:
    • happy path
    • edge cases (missing fields, invalid types, max payloads)
    • auth failures (401, 403)
    • rate limiting behavior
  5. Validate response contracts against OpenAPI using Zod (TS) or Pydantic (Python).
  6. Add frontend-backend contract tests for API call compatibility.
  7. Generate endpoint and edge-case coverage percentages.
  8. Output api-test-report.json.

Execution

python skills/web-api-tester/scripts/api_tester.py --input <workspace> --output <out.json> --format json

Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
