qa

qa is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from adobe/skills. It costs 138 tokens per session (1,715 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A read-only quality check for a live website. It checks what the server delivers, what a browser renders, and whether the result differs from approved visual versions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps check routing, page content, layout, browser errors, visual regressions, SEO metadata, structured data, links, and accessibility.
Why use it?
A successful deployment can still show broken images, incorrect content, JavaScript errors, bad links, accessibility problems, or missing search metadata. This sweep gathers those issues into an evidence-based report.

About the project

Adobe Skills is a collection of skills, plugins, agents, and MCP servers that extend AI coding agents with workflows for Adobe products and other tasks. Developers use it to help coding agents work with Adobe analytics and application-building tools. The catalogue entries are the repository’s own skills, plugins, agents, and MCP integrations.

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 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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 13 executable files (scripts/checks/browse.mjs, scripts/checks/content.mjs, scripts/checks/editability.mjs, …), 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 133 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

stardust:qa — read-only site QA sweep

One live URL in. One evidence-bound findings report out. This skill never edits anything — not site content, not DA documents, not repo code. Its only writes are report artifacts under stardust/qa/. If the user wants findings fixed, that is a separate, explicit follow-up outside this skill.

qa is the post-deploy counterpart of rollout's delivery verification: where rollout asks "did every page ship?", qa asks "is everything that shipped actually correct?" — at all three layers a deploy can silently break:

  1. delivery — what the pipeline serves (.plain.html, full HTML, sheets, sitemap)
  2. rendered — what a browser shows after block decoration
  3. regression — what changed since the last approved state (visual baselines)

A green upper layer never implies the lower one: a publish 200 ≠ delivered, delivered HTML ≠ rendered correctly.

Setup

  1. Run the master skill's setup (skills/stardust/SKILL.md § Setup) if not already done this session. qa works standalone too — it only needs a live base URL.
  2. Resolve the base URL (the *.aem.live host or production domain). If the user didn't give one, look in stardust/rollout/rollout.json (site.liveHost) or ask.
  3. Resolve the inventory source — what pages the sweep covers, merged from any of: stardust/template-map.json (also supplies template assignments for conformance), a paths file, and the live sitemap.xml (always fetched; parity mismatches become findings, so a wrong sitemap can't silently shrink coverage).
  4. Optional inputs that unlock deeper checks:
    • --scrape stardust/scrape — verbatim fidelity vs the extraction capture
    • --expected-blocks <json> — explicit per-template block expectations (otherwise derived by fleet consensus)
    • --blocks-dir <dir> — the site's blocks/ checkout, so the editability check can honour @ew-exempt JSDoc tags (otherwise pass --ew-exempt a,b for index-driven blocks)
  5. Browser checks need playwright resolvable from the project (node_modules/playwright). If missing, run the delivery-layer checks only (--checks routing,content,templates,metadata,links) and tell the user what was skipped.
  6. Append a phase-transition line to stardust/status.jsonl per reference/run-status.md (master skill) at sweep start/end.

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.
