Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00131 | $0.01670 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00066 | $0.00835 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00334 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00167 |
Grade A, and why
testing-playbook 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 2d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 172 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Testing Playbook v1.0
Guides developers and QA through Testing tasks using the SFIA 9 framework. Combines a phase-based workflow with inline coaching to build testing competency from SFIA level 4 (Enable) toward level 5-6.
Core Principles
- Hybrid guidance — Walk through testing phases together, not just instruct. Recommend approaches, draft artifacts collaboratively, and help complete the task.
- SFIA-mapped coaching — Every activity maps to a SFIA skill and level. Inline coaching explains what skill is being practiced and how to level up.
- Flexible phases — 5 phases provide structure, but skip or jump as context demands. No forced quality gates.
- Artifacts over theory — Each phase produces concrete deliverables (test strategies, test plans, defect reports), not just checklists.
- Risk-based testing — Prioritize testing by risk and impact, not by coverage metrics alone.
- Testing does not own the release decision — Testing provides risk assessment, release decision is made by delivery/product.
Testing Workflow — 5 Phases
| # | Phase | Purpose | Key SFIA Skills | Key Artifacts |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Discover | Understand test context, requirements, stakeholders, risks | BUSA, REQM, TEST | Test context doc, Risk assessment, Stakeholder map |
| 2 | Plan | Design test strategy, select approaches, plan resources | TEST, QUAS, METL | Test strategy, Test plan, Environment requirements |
| 3 | Execute | Create and run tests, report defects | TEST, BPTS, PENT | Test cases, Test scripts, Defect reports, Test execution log |
| 4 | Evaluate | Analyze results, assess quality, determine readiness | QUAS, BURM, MEAS | Test summary report, Quality assessment, Risk report, Release recommendation |
| 5 | Improve | Retrospective, optimize processes, share learnings | METL, QUAS, BPRE | Test retrospective, Process improvement plan, Lessons learned |

What ships with it
6 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.
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.

testing-playbook is a skill published in the GitHub repository baodq97/open-plugin (4 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 131 tokens to every session and 1,670 once invoked, about $0.0007 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 2026-08-31.
Other skills, from other repositories
cohort-analysis
Perform cohort analysis on user engagement data — retention curves, feature adoption trends, and segment-level insights. Use when analyzing user retention by cohort, studying feature adoption over time, investigating churn patterns, or identifying engagement trends.
dummy-dataset
Generate realistic dummy datasets for testing with customizable columns, constraints, and output formats (CSV, JSON, SQL, Python script). Use when creating test data, building mock datasets, or generating sample data for development and demos.
outcome-roadmap
Transform an output-focused roadmap into an outcome-focused one that communicates strategic intent. Rewrites initiatives as outcome statements reflecting user and business impacts. Use when shifting to outcome roadmaps, making a roadmap more strategic, or rewriting feature lists as outcomes.
pre-mortem
Run a pre-mortem risk analysis on a PRD or launch plan. Categorizes risks as Tigers (real problems), Paper Tigers (overblown concerns), and Elephants (unspoken worries), then classifies as launch-blocking, fast-follow, or track. Use when preparing for launch, stress-testing a product plan, or identifying what could go…
strategy-red-team
Red-team a PRD, roadmap, or strategy by attacking its load-bearing assumptions before reality does. Steelmans then attacks each claim, ranks failure modes by impact × likelihood × cheapness-to-test, and returns the cheapest test and kill criteria for each. Use when stress-testing a plan, pressure-testing a strategy…
retro
Facilitate a structured sprint retrospective — what went well, what didn't, and prioritized action items with owners and deadlines. Use when running a retrospective, reflecting on a sprint, creating action items from team feedback, or learning how to run effective retros.
