system-tests

system-tests is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from AdamBien/airails. It costs 157 tokens per session (540 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for system tests, which check a running application from the outside through interfaces such as HTTP, command-line tools, messages, or files.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for designing black-box tests against a started service, configuring its connection details, isolating test cases, and reporting passed, failed, or skipped results.
Why use it?
It keeps tests focused on what users and other systems can observe, while making them portable, isolated, and fully reported.

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

system-tests 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 4d 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 it actually says

System Tests

A system test exercises the running system from the outside through its public surface — HTTP, CLI, messaging, files. It observes what a consumer observes; nothing else.

Contract

  • Black box — assert only through the public surface: no mocks, no internal classes, no database access unless the database is the public surface. Behavior not observable from outside is a unit or integration concern.
  • Running system — tests target a started instance and never instantiate production classes. Starting and deploying is the stack skill's concern.
  • Coordinates as configuration — base URL, broker address, working directory come from configuration (e.g. microprofile-server's service_uri configKey), never hardcoded. The same suite runs unchanged against dev, CI, and a migration target.
  • Isolation — each test runs alone and in any order; seed-data assumptions are declared, not implied.
  • Total reporting — every test appears in the result with a verdict; skipped is a verdict, not an omission.

Expectation Origins

Same test level, different oracle:

Origin Expected values come from Skill
Specified hand-written from known requirements (default)
Spec-derived EARS statements of a capability spec ears-tests
Recorded golden masters of the running legacy system characterization-tests

Composition

  • This skill owns the contract above.
  • The composed stack skill owns launch mechanics, module layout, and test syntax — microprofile-server: -st Maven module, JUnit 5, rest client; java-cli-app: zunit; web frontends: web-system-tests (Playwright against the running site).
  • ears-tests and characterization-tests own their expectation origins and compose with both this skill and the stack skill.
Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.

system-tests is a skill published in the GitHub repository AdamBien/airails (48 stars, last pushed 14d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 157 tokens to every session and 540 once invoked, about $0.0008 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
