dev-testing

dev-testing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from devcodex-labs/devcodex. It costs 27 tokens per session (5,083 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A testing guide that defines when to use unit, integration, API, and end-to-end tests. Unit tests check small pieces of code, while end-to-end tests check a full user flow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Planning test coverage and choosing tests for individual functions, connected components, APIs, or complete application journeys.
Why use it?
It helps decide which kinds of tests are needed instead of leaving coverage to guesswork.

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

dev-testing 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 1mo 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.
