release-candidate-to-reviewed-gate

release-candidate-to-reviewed-gate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from manishiitg/coding-agent-loop. It costs 26 tokens per session (703 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A quality check of an exact software build and its required browser and continuous-integration tests, followed by a reviewed release decision.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps run or review browser journeys and CI results, investigate intermittent tests when needed and prepare a release gate for approval.
Why use it?
It ties the decision to a specific build, environment and test attempts, rather than treating a general pass or a flaky result as sufficient evidence.

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

release-candidate-to-reviewed-gate 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 20d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/test_validate_handoff.py, scripts/validate_handoff.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Release Candidate to Reviewed Gate

Outcome

Produce an attempt-level journey result and a reviewed release gate proposal for the exact SHA, build, and environment. A proposed pass, owner approval, provider-published status, merge, and deployment are distinct states.

When to use

Use when a small team needs a repeatable release quality decision from browser and CI evidence. For a single QA chat question, one Crew may be enough. Add the Flaky Test Investigator only for an intermittent result requiring its own evidence and owner.

Discovery and user direction

Inspect existing QA Crews, candidate identity, policy revision, required suites, attempts, evidence retention, owners, and status destination. Propose reuse or reviewed creation. Show the exact route before Builder applies it; selection leaves setup pending.

Required inputs

Bind release or PR ID, SHA, immutable build artifact, environment, cutoff, approved journey revision, required suite policy, test account scope, gate owner, and status authority.

Plan and AgentWorks tools

Reuse Browser Journey QA Analyst and Release Quality Assistant. Journey writes journey-result/v1; run the bundled validator before Gate consumes it. If attempts conflict, route a bounded artifact to Flaky Test Investigator, validate its flake-investigation/v1, and keep original failures visible. Gate re-reads all required suite records and writes release-quality-brief/v1. Insert explicit validator steps in the Workflow. Publish only the exact owner-approved decision through a separately authorized route.

Knowledge and persistence

Save release, SHA, build, environment, policy, journey, suite, attempt, source, reviewer, approval, provider receipt, and run IDs. A new SHA or build is a new gate decision. Reruns preserve prior attempts and waivers.

Validation and reporting

The validator checks identity, required suite coverage, evidence, flake disposition, verdict, and publication receipt. Fictional journey and gate pass; the wrong-build pass fails. The flake investigation pairs with a needs-review gate; owner approval and status receipt are later artifacts. The reporting dashboard shows tested candidate, required suites, failures, blocked and stale evidence, owner decision, published state, and cost separately.

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.
