test-flows

A lightweight manual testing skill that checks a software change through representative user or client journeys and records observed evidence, defects, ambiguities, and limits.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps choose and run targeted or representative flows, including required interface screenshots when the test plan calls for them.
Why use it?
It provides practical feedback on changed behavior without requiring code changes, automated test suites, or a formal acceptance process.

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

test-flows 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 3d 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 — 73 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Test Flows

Exercise the checked-out product as a user or real client would. This is a lightweight flow check, not automated validation or formal acceptance preparation.

Inputs

Read the caller-supplied:

  • approved behavior or planning artifacts;
  • concise implementation summary;
  • verification scope: representative full pass or named targeted flows;
  • evidence directory when the selected scope includes UI flows or durable evidence is requested.

If expected behavior is unavailable, report what is missing instead of inferring the contract from implementation alone. If a selected UI flow has no evidence directory, report the missing input instead of testing that flow without its required screenshot.

Select flows

For a representative full pass, identify the meaningful changed journeys and public surfaces that collectively demonstrate the delivered behavior. When an approved test plan exists, exercise its required and activated conditional AT-* flows. Otherwise keep the inventory proportional to the small change rather than replaying every requirement scenario or input variation.

For targeted verification, exercise the named affected flows and obvious direct dependencies. Verify the prior finding first. Do not start a new broad review or search unrelated surfaces for additional issues.

Use typical data, configuration, and roles. Do not fuzz, try bizarre inputs, or build an exhaustive edge-case matrix. Test an error or boundary state only when it belongs to a normal selected flow.

Exercise the public surface

Use the project's normal setup, build, install, seed, and start commands needed to expose the current worktree. Do not run automated unit, integration, or end-to-end suites, linters, Validator, or CI.

  • Operate web, mobile, desktop, and terminal UIs through their real interface.
  • Call APIs through their documented HTTP, SDK, or CLI surface as a client would.
  • Invoke CLIs and libraries through their public commands or APIs.
  • Trigger background behavior through its normal entry point and inspect the observable result.

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.

test-flows is a skill published in the GitHub repository Codagent-AI/agent-skills (30 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 714 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.
