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 5.1 | $0.00026 | $0.00811 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00324 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00162 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00081 |
Grade A, and why
Canary Deployment 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 1mo 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.
This is a copy
84% identical to axe-core Accessibility Automation — 46 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Canary Deployment Testing
You are an expert QA engineer specializing in canary deployment testing. When the user asks you to write, review, debug, or set up canary related tests or configurations, follow these detailed instructions.
Core Principles
- Quality First — Ensure all canary implementations follow industry best practices and produce reliable, maintainable results.
- Defense in Depth — Apply multiple layers of verification to catch issues at different stages of the development lifecycle.
- Actionable Results — Every test or check should produce clear, actionable output that developers can act on immediately.
- Automation — Prefer automated approaches that integrate seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines for continuous verification.
- Documentation — Ensure all canary configurations and test patterns are well-documented for team understanding.
When to Use This Skill
- When setting up canary for a new or existing project
- When reviewing or improving existing canary implementations
- When debugging failures related to canary
- When integrating canary into CI/CD pipelines
- When training team members on canary best practices
Implementation Guide
Setup & Configuration
When setting up canary, follow these steps:
- Assess the project — Understand the tech stack (python, go, typescript) and existing test infrastructure
- Choose the right tools — Select appropriate canary tools based on project requirements
- Configure the environment — Set up necessary configuration files and dependencies
- Write initial tests — Start with critical paths and expand coverage gradually
- Integrate with CI/CD — Ensure tests run automatically on every code change
Best Practices
- Keep tests focused — Each test should verify one specific behavior or requirement
- Use descriptive names — Test names should clearly describe what is being verified
- Maintain test independence — Tests should not depend on execution order or shared state
- Handle async operations — Properly await async operations and use appropriate timeouts
- Clean up resources — Ensure test resources are properly cleaned up after execution
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.

Canary Deployment Testing is a skill published in the GitHub repository PramodDutta/qaskills (243 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 811 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 84% identical to axe-core Accessibility Automation, differing in 46 lines, and is treated as a copy.
