qa-scoping

qa-scoping is a skill for Claude Code from Jarroslav/agentic-os. It costs 118 tokens per session (2,240 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A QA planning and review skill, where QA means checking that software works as intended. It creates test checklists, reviews written tests, and updates QA records for each feature.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before implementation to plan tests, after tests are written to review their quality, and later to record changes. It requires the repository's QA strategy and health guides.
Why use it?
It helps teams decide what to test, identify missing coverage, and keep testing documentation current throughout development.

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

qa-scoping 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 220 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

qa-scoping

Everything QA between "we know what we are building" and "the health record is current": decide what must be tested, judge what was tested, write down what changed.

Prerequisites: .agentic/guides/testing/qa-strategy.md and .agentic/guides/testing/qa-health.md must already exist. If either is missing, halt with:

[QA GUIDE MISSING] .agentic/guides/testing/qa-strategy.md not found.
Run the `qa-baseline` skill to generate the QA knowledge foundation first.

Both documents this skill writes are specified in references/qa-artifacts.md. Follow it exactly — the pipeline and the Phase 7 reviewer parse what comes out.

Every mode takes the same two arguments: run_dir (absolute) and merge_base (origin/main unless told otherwise).


Methodology owner. What a well-shaped test case set covers is defined by the test-cases blueprint in agentic-qe (skills/qe-blueprints/references/catalog/design/test-cases.md). This skill executes; the blueprint is the authority on method. If the two ever disagree, the blueprint wins and this file is what gets corrected — one source of truth, so two agents cannot follow two different sets of practices.

Mode: --checklist (Phase 6)

Runs before implementation. The output is a claim about what this change has to get right, made while it is still cheap to disagree.

Gather the inputs

Read, in this order: <run_dir>/requirements.md (required — halt if absent), <run_dir>/design.md (skip if absent), then .agentic/guides/testing/qa-strategy.md and .agentic/guides/testing/qa-health.md.

Work out what this change touches

From the requirements, name four things:

  • Modules — the paths, packages or domains the work lands in.
  • Surfaces users meet — endpoints, screens, commands.
  • Risk flags — auth, payments, data migration, security, breaking change.
  • Search terms — three to six words (class, endpoint, domain nouns) good enough to find existing tests with.

What ships with it

2 files 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.

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.
