specsmith: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/testing-parallel-execution/SKILL.md

testing-parallel-execution is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from layer1labs/specsmith. It costs 16 tokens per session (357 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A governed workflow for running software tests at the same time across multiple workers. It includes worker limits, dependency handling, result collection and human approval.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure and run parallel test suites, allocate workers, handle test dependencies, monitor execution and collect combined results.
Why use it?
It can shorten test runs while keeping parallel execution controlled, configured and recorded for review.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is layer1labs/specsmith's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on specsmith itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything specsmith configures →

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

testing-parallel-execution 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 2mo 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.

What it actually says

Testing Parallel Execution

This skill enables specsmith projects to execute tests in parallel while maintaining governance compliance.

Requirements Covered

  • REQ-107: Testing Parallel Execution
  • Allows specsmith projects to execute tests in parallel with human approval

Integration Capabilities

Parallel Execution Features

  • Parallel test execution management
  • Resource allocation for parallel tests
  • Test dependency management
  • Load balancing across test runners
  • Parallel test result aggregation
  • Performance monitoring during parallel execution

Governance Requirements

  • Human approval required for parallel execution
  • Configuration management with governance controls
  • Approval-based parallelism settings
  • Audit logging of parallel execution activities

Usage Examples

# Initialize parallel execution
specsmith skill install testing-parallel-execution

# Configure parallel execution
specsmith test parallel configure --max-workers 4 --timeout 60000

# Run tests in parallel
specsmith test parallel run --suite e2e-tests --workers 4

Configuration

The skill requires the following configuration in scaffold.yml:

parallel_execution:
  max_workers: 4
  timeout: 60000
  worker_pool_size: 2
  test_isolation: true
  result_aggregation: true

Security Considerations

  • All parallel execution requires human approval
  • Resource allocation must be monitored
  • Test isolation must be maintained
  • Parallel execution must not impact system stability

Compliance Requirements

  • Follow security best practices for parallel execution
  • Maintain audit logs of all parallel execution activities
  • Ensure proper resource management and monitoring
  • Enforce approval-based parallel execution settings

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.
