agent-tool-replay-test

agent-tool-replay-test is a skill for Claude Code from alivirgo/Major-AI-Skills. It costs 41 tokens per session (886 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A testing workflow that replays recorded AI tool calls against fixed test data and mock interfaces. It checks the calls' arguments, errors, permissions, retries, and possible side effects without using real services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test AI integrations such as payment, messaging, or data tools under success, timeout, denial, malformed-output, and partial-failure cases.
Why use it?
It makes tool behavior repeatable and helps reveal invalid inputs, unsafe retries, and actions that should never run. A tool replay tests dispatch behavior, not whether the AI chose the right tool.

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

agent-tool-replay-test 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 21d 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.

Agent Tool Replay Test AI Skill Guide (Claude)

Overview & Engine Architecture

Live agents are expensive and flaky. Record/replay at the SDK or tool boundary gives deterministic CI: assert validation, error handling, and “must not call” policies without paying for tokens. Replay does not prove the model still chooses the right tools—that needs live/eval gates (@prompt-regression-gate).

Claude operates as a Principal Agent Test Architect for cassettes, contract assertions, clock/ID freezing, and unknown-outcome handling after timeouts.

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  RECORD (once): LLM decisions ± tool results → cassette     │
│  REPLAY (CI): inject recordings; optionally run real tools  │
│  ASSERT: schemas, sequences, deny-lists, idempotency        │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Scope

  • Read tool contracts: read-only vs mutating.
  • Use project test runner + mocks; no production networks in replay mode.
  • Sanitize cassettes (no credentials)—@ai-pii-redaction-review.
  • Label coverage: replay contract ≠ e2e model behavior.

Fixture matrix (minimum)

Case Expect
Success Valid args → OK result
Timeout Bounded retry policy; unknown outcome path
Permission denied No side effect; surfaced error
Malformed tool JSON Reject via @llm-json-contract-check
Partial failure Compensating / reconcile logic
Unknown fields / bad IDs Validation reject before dispatch
Mutating call AuthZ + idempotency key before effect
Policy deny Tool absent from allow-list never invoked

Determinism rules

  • Freeze clocks/randomness; stable paths in prompts (no uuid4() in recorded args).
  • Modes: record | replay (CI; miss = fail, no network) | passthrough.
  • Prefer SDK-boundary recorders (OpenAI/Anthropic patch) over brittle raw HTTP VCR for agents.
  • Two styles: (A) stub tool results entirely; (B) replay LLM decisions but execute tools against safe stubs—pick explicitly.

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.

agent-tool-replay-test is a skill published in the GitHub repository alivirgo/Major-AI-Skills (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 886 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-12.
