stress-testing-agent-changes

stress-testing-agent-changes is a skill for Claude Code from FlyFission/nuclear-grade-context-engineering. It costs 103 tokens per session (1,825 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A red-team testing workflow for changes to coding agents. Red teaming means deliberately trying attacks and unsafe uses to find weaknesses before release.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for testing changes involving agent tools, data access, network access, dependencies, models, or releases, and for producing an evidence record that supports a release decision.
Why use it?
Normal tests check whether a feature works, but may not reveal prompt injection, excessive permissions, unsafe output, or tool misuse. This workflow records each attempted attack, its result, remaining risk, and possible safeguards.

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

stress-testing-agent-changes 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.

Stress-Testing Agent Changes

Overview

When an agent can use tools, read data, or affect releases, it gives attackers something to aim at. Normal "does it work" testing does not test for that. This skill is about attacking your own work on purpose to find weak spots (red teaming). You do it in an orderly way: list the kinds of attacks that matter here, say what safe behavior should look like, try the attacks (or simulate them), write down what happened, and tie the findings into the packet's evidence record.

Decision contract

  • Claim checked: each attack type chosen for this setup has a recorded contained/uncertain/exposed result with expected behavior written before the result, no finding quietly dropped, and python tools/ng.py validate .nuclear/changes/<slug> passes.
  • Artifact observed: basis.md, risk.md, and past OPEX records naming the agent role, tools, and data reach -> a red-team record in verification.md (or red-team.md) with each type's result, leftover risk, and backup controls.
  • Decision affected: block -- per adversarial class, contained / uncertain / exposed; uncertain or exposed findings feed ship.md.
  • Failure class: unhardened-agent-power (an unchecked attack type, or an exposed finding shipped with no named leftover risk).
  • Next action: name leftover risk and backup controls in ship.md; an exposed finding touching credentials, production data, or users escalates.

When to Use

  • An agent is getting new tools, network access, credentials, or the power to write files.
  • A change widens what an agent may read, run, call, or release.
  • A dependency or model update may change how the agent handles input it should not trust.
  • The release packet needs attack evidence, not just "does it work" test coverage.
  • A past OPEX record (a lessons-from-operation record) found a gap in how attacks were handled.

When Not to Use

  • The change involves no agent power (it is pure data, formatting, or documentation work).
  • A formal penetration test, certified security audit, or regulatory exercise is already planned.
  • The packet mode is Quick and the risk check confirms no new trust or permission boundary.

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.
