hitkeep-qa

hitkeep-qa is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PascaleBeier/hitkeep. It costs 57 tokens per session (612 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A quality-assurance workflow for HitKeep using the `hk` tool. It plans and runs checks at different depths, from changed-code checks to full validation, and reports their status.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for validating work during development, before completion, matching pull-request checks, running exhaustive checks, and examining asynchronous or failed quality gates.
Why use it?
It helps teams choose checks that match the change and investigate failures without guessing which quality gates or commands apply.

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

hitkeep-qa 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 4d 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.

HitKeep QA

Treat AGENTS.md as repository policy and the live hk QA catalog as workflow truth. Never reproduce the gate matrix, commands, tags, or tool versions in this skill or in a contribution plan.

Select

Use hk_qa_plan whenever it is callable. If it is absent or fails, report whether registration, startup, workspace routing, or task reload is blocking MCP and obtain explicit user approval before using an equivalent CLI action. After approval, discover the planning command through ./hk qa --help and request --output json.

  • Use changed while iterating.
  • Use complete before declaring contributor work complete; it runs the deepest locally appropriate gates for affected areas.
  • Use pr only for exact unchanged CI parity.
  • Use full when release risk, cloud-tagged behavior, container behavior, or the request explicitly requires exhaustive validation.

Honor planner escalation. Query hitkeep-dev://catalog/qa or the structured CLI catalog for current profiles and gate definitions rather than guessing or copying commands.

Use hk_run_status to observe the returned run and request bounded cursor-addressed run or gate logs. Use hk_run_cancel only for the intended exact observed active run.

Run and Observe

  1. Inspect hk_context and known run status for equivalent active QA work before starting another.
  2. Persist a source-bound plan with hk_qa_plan, then pass its required plan_id to hk_run_start. Use a structured CLI action with --detach --output json only after the MCP blocker has been reported and the user has approved fallback. Keep the returned workspace ID and run ID.
  3. Poll hk_run_status rather than restarting a slow run or assuming client disconnect stopped it.
  4. On failure, request the bounded run tail, then a bounded gate-specific view from hk_run_status. Open the complete local artifact only when that context is insufficient.
  5. Fix the root cause and rerun the smallest relevant selection from the live catalog before rerunning the required profile.
  6. Let all selected gates finish; one failure must not hide independent results. Cancel only the intended validated run.

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.
