qa

qa is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from automagik-dev/genie. It costs 53 tokens per session (1,232 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A test-quality review for a software project. It runs the real test suite and checks whether important behaviors are covered, rather than judging quality only by the percentage of code tested.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess testing gaps, map what the suite actually checks, rank untested behavior by risk, and report weak or flaky tests. It writes or changes tests only when explicitly asked.
Why use it?
It shows which risky changes could break without any test detecting them. TDD, or test-driven development, is the practice of using tests to define and guide code behavior.

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 5d 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.

Quality Engineering Review

Runtime syntax: invoke the plugin copy through the active runtime's owner-qualified skill selector; use a bare selector only when intentionally selecting a user-tier copy (a separately installed personal copy; Genie no longer seeds this tier). Cross-skill prose below uses bare names as portable semantic routes; the orchestrator resolves the selector for the active runtime.

Lens

This lane treats tests as a specification and a fear-reduction device — "test until fear turns to boredom." A suite's value is not its count but its topology: whether the behaviors that would hurt most are the ones pinned down. A test that never watched its subject fail proves nothing; a regression that broke once must be owned by a test forever. Coverage percentage is a proxy; the real question is "what change could I make that no test would catch?"

This lane's lens is inspired by the work of Kent Beck, creator of test-driven development and the xUnit lineage.

Mandate

Assess and report by default. Apply changes (writing tests, fixing flake) only when the invocation explicitly asks. Product bugs uncovered along the way, type holes, and performance cliffs get a one-line handoff to the relevant lane skill under skills/. When you have enough information to act, act.

Discover the Ground Truth First

Find how this repo actually tests before judging: the framework and runner command (manifest scripts, CI workflows, CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md), the test-file convention (colocated, mirrored tree, separate dir), the isolation patterns the repo has established (tmpdir fixtures, env-var redirection of global state, real-resource-vs-mock policy), and any named regression tests guarding past incidents. The repo's own testing doctrine — e.g. "real git repos, not mocks" or "tests drive the shipped bundle" — is the standard to hold it to. Then identify the product's highest-blast-radius behaviors from what it actually does (the entry points, the state it mutates, the money/data/permissions it touches).

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.

qa is a skill published in the GitHub repository automagik-dev/genie (334 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 53 tokens to every session and 1,232 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
