Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 5.1 | $0.00035 | $0.00584 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00234 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00117 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00058 |
Grade A, and why
testing-strategy 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 93 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Testing Strategy
Build confidence across core flows with a layered test approach. Focus on deterministic logic, stable UI flows, and regression coverage.
When to use this skill
- Before App Store submission
- When adding a new feature or ViewModel
- After refactors touching haptics, timers, or syncing
- When flaky UI tests appear
Test Layers
1) Unit Tests (Fast, deterministic)
Targets: ViewModels, Managers, Models, Utilities
Checklist:
- Pure logic in Models/Utilities has unit tests
- ViewModels tested for state transitions
- Async flows tested with
XCTestExpectation - Watch sync logic tested with mock
WCSession
Suggested patterns:
- Dependency injection via protocols
- Use fakes/stubs for haptics, timers, clock
2) UI Tests (Critical flows only)
Targets: Core journeys and regressions
Recommended flows:
- Start/stop timer
- Edit haptic pattern
- Save/restore presets
- Watch ↔ Phone sync path (smoke test)
3) Snapshot / Visual Regression (Optional)
Use snapshots for stable screens (settings, templates, empty states). Avoid animation-heavy views.
Coverage Map (Suggested)
| Area | Minimum Coverage | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| ViewModels | 80%+ | Highest ROI tests |
| Managers | 70%+ | Haptics, timers, storage |
| Views | Key flows | UI test smoke coverage |
| Watch sync | Basic | Validate payload and fallback |
| Localization | Automated | Ensure no missing keys |
Test Hygiene
- Avoid hardcoded dates; inject clocks
- Avoid timers in tests; inject schedulers
- Use
@MainActorfor UI-bound tests - Keep UI tests under 3–5 critical paths
Localization Regression
Run localization scripts as part of CI or before release:
python3 scripts/check_localization_status.py YourApp/Localizable.xcstrings
python3 scripts/check_localization_status.py YourApp/AppIntents/AppShortcuts.xcstrings
python3 scripts/check_localization_status.py "YourApp Watch App/Localizable.xcstrings"
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.

testing-strategy is a skill published in the GitHub repository mwd1234/ios-agentic-skills (50 stars, last pushed 9mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 584 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
