mindroom: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/live-test/SKILL.md

live-test is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mindroom-ai/mindroom. It costs 85 tokens per session (1,167 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for running the real application and checking its behavior. It covers local services, Matrix messaging, APIs, and browser screenshots.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start the MindRoom stack or SaaS sandbox, run an isolated Matrix/backend instance, create temporary Matrix accounts, send or read messages, call live APIs, and capture frontend screenshots.
Why use it?
It helps catch problems that unit tests or static checks cannot show in a running system. It also provides runtime evidence when local services, ports, or test accounts may conflict.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for Claude Code and Codex: installed under .claude/, but also agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: reads ~/.codex paths; mentions Codex.

This is mindroom-ai/mindroom's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on mindroom 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 mindroom configures →

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill modifies its own code, configuration, or behavior at runtime. Self-modification enables an agent to escalate privileges, disable safety constraints, or install persistent backdoors.
    Fix: Prevent the skill from modifying its own code, SKILL.md, or configuration files. Treat skill files as read-only at runtime.

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

live-test 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 9d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 80 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Live Test

Run the real product and collect runtime evidence.

⚠️ NixOS Environment

On NixOS hosts, run commands inside the repo Node.js 24 dev shell so libstdc++.so.6 is available. Without it, numpy fails to import and you get AttributeError: module 'mindroom' has no attribute 'bot'.

nix-shell shell.nix
# then run normally inside the shell:
uv run pytest ...
uv run mindroom run

If nix-shell shell.nix cannot resolve <nixpkgs>, use:

nix-shell -I nixpkgs=/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos shell.nix

See references/core-mindroom.md for details.

The root shell includes Linux Chromium only on Linux so the backend and Node.js tools also work on macOS.

Workflow

  1. Choose the surface you need to test.
  1. Prefer isolated local runs when the worktree or machine is already busy.
  • Existing local instances often collide on ports, Matrix usernames, room aliases, and dashboard API ports.
  • If you see conflicts, create an isolated config, set a unique MINDROOM_NAMESPACE, use a unique mindroom_user.username, isolate MINDROOM_STORAGE_PATH, and choose a non-default --api-port.
  • If the isolated run writes its own .env, inspect it before hitting authenticated /api/* routes because it may contain the instance-specific MINDROOM_API_KEY.
  • Keep config, storage, logs, transcripts, and snapshots in an isolated persistent directory under .baspowers/sdd/ or ~/.codex/worktrees/.
  • If you create .baspowers/sdd/ yourself, add a .gitignore containing * to it so no evidence can be committed.
  • Do not put live-test evidence in a temporary directory.
  1. Verify behavior, not just startup.
  • For chat flows, send a real message and inspect the actual reply thread.
  • For backend changes, hit the live endpoint on the same instance you started.
  • For frontend changes, capture screenshots and inspect the generated PNGs.

What ships with it

3 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.

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.
