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 | $0.00160 | $0.00809 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00080 | $0.00404 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00032 | $0.00162 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00081 |
Grade A, and why
131-java-testing-unit-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 yesterday.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 67 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Java Unit testing guidelines
Review and improve Java unit tests using modern JUnit 5, AssertJ, and Mockito best practices.
What is covered in this Skill?
- JUnit 5 annotations:
@Test,@BeforeEach,@AfterEach,@DisplayName,@Nested,@ParameterizedTest - AssertJ fluent assertions:
assertThat,assertThatThrownBy - Given-When-Then test structure, descriptive test naming, single-responsibility tests
- Test independence and isolated state
- Parameterized tests:
@ValueSource/@CsvSource/@MethodSource - Mockito dependency mocking:
@Mock,@InjectMocks,MockitoExtension - Code coverage guidance (JaCoCo), package-private test visibility
- Testing anti-patterns: reflection, shared state, hard-coded values, testing implementation details
- Error handling:
assertThatThrownBy, exception messages - JSpecify null-safety:
@NullMarked,@Nullable - RIGHT-BICEP coverage principles, A-TRIP test quality, CORRECT boundary condition verification
Scope: The reference is organized by examples (good/bad code patterns) for each core area. Apply recommendations based on applicable examples.
Constraints
Before applying any unit test changes, ensure the project compiles. If compilation fails, stop immediately — do not proceed until resolved. After applying improvements, run full verification.
- MANDATORY: Run
./mvnw compileormvn compilebefore applying any change - SAFETY: If compilation fails, stop immediately and do not proceed — compilation failure is a blocking condition
- VERIFY: Run
./mvnw clean verifyormvn clean verifyafter applying improvements - BEFORE APPLYING: Read the reference for detailed examples, good/bad patterns, and constraints
When to use this skill
- Review Java code for unit tests
- Apply best practices for unit tests in Java code
- Write fast JUnit unit tests for Java code
- Improve Mockito-based Java unit tests
- Refactor Java tests to isolate collaborators
Workflow
- Compile project before unit-test changes
What ships with it
1 file 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.

131-java-testing-unit-testing is a skill published in the GitHub repository jabrena/plinth (435 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 160 tokens to every session and 809 once invoked, about $0.0008 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 2026-09-03.
