acceptance-testing

A testing method that turns specification acceptance criteria into tests before declaring a feature complete. Acceptance criteria are the conditions a feature must satisfy.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to validate features against specifications, check completion before merging code, and assess readiness for release.
Why use it?
It prevents a task from being marked done when the implementation has not passed tests for the required behavior.

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

acceptance-testing 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 2d 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.

Acceptance Testing

Overview

Acceptance-driven backpressure connects specification acceptance criteria directly to test requirements, creating a validation chain that prevents premature completion claims. The system cannot cheat — you cannot claim a feature is done unless tests derived from spec acceptance criteria actually pass.

Announce at start: "I'm using the acceptance-testing skill to validate against specification criteria."


The Backpressure Chain

+------------+     derives      +------------+     validates    +------------+

      If tests fail, implementation must change (not the spec or test)

Phase 1: Extract Acceptance Criteria

Goal: From each specification file, extract all Given/When/Then acceptance criteria.

Actions

  1. Locate all specification files (specs/*.md)
  2. Extract every acceptance criterion with its ID
  3. Document in structured format

Example Extraction

## From spec: 01-color-extraction.md

### AC-1: Extract dominant colors
- Given an uploaded image (PNG, JPG, or WebP)
- When color extraction is triggered
- Then 5-10 dominant colors are returned
- And each color includes hex, RGB, and HSL representations

### AC-2: Handle invalid images
- Given a corrupted or unsupported file
- When color extraction is attempted
- Then an appropriate error is returned
- And no partial results are produced

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.

acceptance-testing is a skill published in the GitHub repository Pixel-Process-UG/superkit-agents (1 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 1,990 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
