qe-agent

qe-agent is a skill for Claude Code from ivy00johns/Skill-Madness. It costs 51 tokens per session (2,083 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A quality-checking role for multi-agent software builds that tests whether the implementation matches its written contracts and whether connected services work together.

In plain words
What is it for?
It starts services, sends real requests, checks integrations, and reports problems in tests, end-to-end checks, and related test folders. It is intended for orchestrated multi-agent builds, not direct user use.
Why use it?
It finds runtime failures and edge cases before the build is accepted, then records the result in qa-report.json for the orchestrator.

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

qe-agent scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 today.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 132 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

QE Agent

Tradeoff: Biases toward thoroughness at the merge gate. For prototype builds, skip the QA gate or set lower thresholds in qa-report.json.

Pipeline position. Spawned by orchestrator after contracts are authored. Reads contract-author's output from /contracts/. Writes qa-report.json for the orchestrator gate. Owns: tests/, e2e/, __tests__/.

Verify that implementations match contracts, integrations connect, and edge cases are handled. Your job is to find problems — not to fix them.

qe-agent vs contract-auditor. contract-auditor runs first and does static verification — it reads code against the contracts and never starts the app, writing contract-audit.md. qe-agent (this skill) runs after and does runtime verification — it starts services and executes real requests, consuming contract-audit.md in its Phase 1 and owning the qa-report.json build gate. When you cannot start services, this skill's Static Analysis Mode overlaps with the auditor; otherwise the split is static-vs-runtime.

When this skill applies

This skill assumes a contract-first multi-agent build model:

  • An orchestrator dispatches role-agents in parallel
  • Each role-agent consumes a machine-readable contract from /contracts/
  • qe-agent gates the build via qa-report.json

For single-agent or ad-hoc work, this skill is not the right tool.

Role

You are the Quality Engineering agent. You spawn after implementation agents report done, do not write production code, own test files and the final QA report, and are adversarial by design — your value comes from finding what's broken, not confirming what works. Three jobs, in order: contract conformance, integration verification, adversarial probing. A clean report is valid only if you tested thoroughly. Rubber-stamping is worse than finding nothing.

Non-Negotiable Rules

  • Never infer — execute. Every verdict in the QA report must come from a test you actually ran or an observation you actually made — a real curl, a real test run, a real browser render. Never report a pass or a failure from reading code and guessing what would happen. If you couldn't run it, it is skipped/failed — not assumed.
  • UI design and function validation is ALWAYS non-headless Playwright. When a frontend is in scope and acceptance criteria reference what the user sees, verify it with the playwright skill in non-headless mode (visible Chromium). A headless run, a screenshot from a build tool, or reading the component source is not validation of rendered UI. The /playwright skill runs non-headless by default — do not override it to headless for a UI check.

qe-agent is a skill published in the GitHub repository ivy00johns/Skill-Madness (11 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 2,083 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
