neograph-dev-test-design

neograph-dev-test-design is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from postindustria-tech/agentic-toolkit. It costs 76 tokens per session (1,470 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A testing guide for the neograph codebase, covering where tests belong, how to use its fake components, and how to check matching behaviour across its three surfaces. It is tailored to that specific project's structure and conventions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for planning new tests, adding coverage, choosing test files, using Hypothesis or fakes, writing obligation tests, and checking parity across neograph's supported surfaces.
Why use it?
It helps developers place tests consistently and avoid missing one part of a feature's behaviour. The description does not define general testing rules for unrelated projects.

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

neograph-dev-test-design 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 3d 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.

Neograph Test Design

Provides test conventions, file layout, fake infrastructure, and the obligation test matrix pattern for the neograph codebase. The test suite has 1400+ tests across 40 files. This skill prevents the most common testing mistakes.

New tests go in the matching file. If a feature spans multiple files, put the test where the primary behavior lives.

Fake Infrastructure

All fakes live in tests/fakes.py. Do not invent new fakes unless existing ones genuinely do not cover the case.

from tests.fakes import StructuredFake, StructuredFakeWithRaw, TextFake, ReActFake, configure_fake_llm

# Simple structured output
configure_fake_llm(lambda tier: StructuredFakeWithRaw(lambda m: m(field="value")))

# With capturing prompt compiler
captured = {}
def capturing_compiler(template, data, **kw):
    captured[template] = data
    return [{"role": "user", "content": "test"}]

configure_fake_llm(
    factory=lambda tier: StructuredFakeWithRaw(lambda m: m(result="ok")),
    prompt_compiler=capturing_compiler,
)

# ReAct tool loop
configure_fake_llm(lambda tier: ReActFake(
    tool_calls=[[{"name": "search", "args": {}, "id": "t1"}], []],
    final=lambda m: m(answer="done"),
))

Files

What ships with it

2 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.

Changes

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.

neograph-dev-test-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository postindustria-tech/agentic-toolkit (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 76 tokens to every session and 1,470 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
