agentic-qe: Skill for Codex

.agents/skills/aqe-research/SKILL.md

aqe-research is a skill for Codex from proffesor-for-testing/agentic-qe. It costs 77 tokens per session (380 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research workflow for Agentic QE, Ruflo, related ruvnet projects, and connected tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps inspect code and documentation, trace dependencies and history, compare upstream changes, review tests, and produce evidence-based engineering recommendations.
Why use it?
It helps separate verified evidence from guesses when investigating repositories, dependencies, changes, and technical claims.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions AGENTS.md; mentions Codex.

This is proffesor-for-testing/agentic-qe's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on agentic-qe itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything agentic-qe configures →

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

aqe-research 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.

What it actually says

Research AQE Systems

  1. Read AGENTS.md, the question, and any user-supplied artifacts completely.
  2. Define the decision the research must support, its scope, and freshness needs.
  3. Search local evidence broad-to-narrow with rg --files, rg, code navigation, tests, configuration, documentation, and git history.
  4. For current external claims, inspect primary sources: upstream repositories, releases, commits, issues, pull requests, and official documentation. Record dates, versions, commit identifiers, and links.
  5. Trace definitions to usages and public boundaries. Map dependencies, data flow, CLI/MCP parity, configuration generation, and tests when relevant.
  6. Classify each material statement using references/evidence-rules.md. Never repeat a benchmark, capability, or roadmap claim as fact without direct evidence.
  7. Synthesize only after gathering evidence. State contradictions, uncertainty, missing access, and stale documentation explicitly.
  8. Return:
    • the decision-oriented summary;
    • verified findings with source locations;
    • inferences and their supporting evidence;
    • gaps and risks;
    • prioritized recommendations and the smallest useful next validation.

Use parallel agents only when the user requests delegation or repository instructions explicitly permit it. Treat Claude agent definitions as domain references; do not copy or execute their Claude-only hooks or tool syntax.

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.
