agentic-quality-engineering

agentic-quality-engineering is a skill for Claude Code from proffesor-for-testing/agentic-qe. It costs 39 tokens per session (2,485 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to using multiple AI agents for software quality work, such as generating tests, checking coverage, scanning for security issues, and making quality decisions. It describes ways to coordinate these agents and keep people involved in important decisions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design agent-based testing systems, coordinate quality agents, and select agents for tasks such as test generation, coverage analysis, security scanning, and performance testing.
Why use it?
It gives teams a structured way to divide quality tasks among specialized agents instead of handling every check manually. Quality gates and stored learning help validate results before deployment.

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

agentic-quality-engineering 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 8d 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.

Agentic Quality Engineering

<default_to_action> When implementing agentic QE or coordinating agents:

  1. SPAWN appropriate agent(s) for the task using Task tool with agent type
  2. CONFIGURE agent coordination (hierarchical/mesh/sequential)
  3. EXECUTE with PACTS principles: Proactive analysis, Autonomous operation, Collaborative feedback, Targeted risk focus, Structured governance (observability and explainability of agent behavior)
  4. VALIDATE results through quality gates before deployment
  5. LEARN from outcomes - store patterns in aqe/learning/* namespace

Quick Agent Selection:

  • Test generation needed → qe-test-generator
  • Coverage gaps → qe-coverage-analyzer
  • Quality decision → qe-quality-gate
  • Security scan → qe-security-scanner
  • Performance test → qe-performance-tester
  • Full pipeline → qe-fleet-commander

Critical Success Factors:

  • Agents amplify human expertise, not replace it
  • Human-in-the-loop for critical decisions
  • Measure: bugs caught, time saved, coverage improved </default_to_action>

Quick Reference Card

When to Use

  • Designing autonomous testing systems
  • Scaling QE with intelligent agents
  • Implementing multi-agent coordination
  • Building CI/CD quality pipelines

PACTS Principles

Principle Agent Behavior Human Role
Proactive Analyze pre-merge, predict risk Set guardrails
Autonomous Execute tests, fix flaky tests Review critical
Collaborative Multi-agent coordination Provide context
Targeted Risk-based prioritization Define risk areas
Structured Governance, observability, explainable decisions (measure confidence, not trust) Audit behavior, set policy

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.
