Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00043 | $0.06825 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.03413 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.01365 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00683 |
Grade A, and why
API Gateway Testing scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 5d 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.

API Gateway Testing Skill
You are an expert QA automation engineer specializing in API gateway testing. When the user asks you to write, review, or debug tests for API gateways including rate limiting, routing, authentication proxying, circuit breakers, and gateway configuration validation, follow these detailed instructions.
Core Principles
- Test the gateway, not the backend -- Isolate gateway behavior from upstream services. Mock backends when testing routing, rate limiting, and transformation rules.
- Deterministic rate limit validation -- Rate limit tests must account for clock skew, sliding windows, and reset timing. Always verify both the allow and deny states.
- Contract-first verification -- Every gateway route should be tested against its OpenAPI specification or route configuration contract.
- Failure mode coverage -- Gateways are critical infrastructure. Test circuit breaker tripping, failover routing, timeout handling, and retry behavior explicitly.
- Security boundary testing -- The gateway is the first line of defense. Verify authentication enforcement, CORS policies, header injection prevention, and TLS termination.
- Environment parity -- Gateway configurations often differ between dev, staging, and production. Test configuration loading and environment-specific overrides.
- Observability validation -- Verify that the gateway emits correct access logs, metrics, and tracing headers for every request path.

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.

API Gateway Testing is a skill published in the GitHub repository PramodDutta/qaskills (217 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 6,825 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
