create-tests

create-tests is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ShiplightAI/agent-skills. It costs 48 tokens per session (213 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A deprecated alias for create-yaml-tests, a skill for creating and maintaining local Shiplight YAML end-to-end tests. End-to-end tests check a complete workflow rather than one small code unit.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use create-yaml-tests instead for project setup, authentication setup, YAML test implementation, validation, and maintenance.
Why use it?
It prevents older references to create-tests from breaking, while directing test work to the renamed skill.

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

create-tests 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 4d 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

Create Tests (renamed)

This skill was renamed to create-yaml-tests. create-tests is kept only as a backward-compatible alias.

Use the create-yaml-tests skill instead — it is the single entry point for Shiplight YAML E2E test work (project setup, specs, auth setup, YAML implementation, validation, and maintenance), and it owns the reference guides (project-layout.md, workflow.md, test-implementation-guide.md, ci.md, and the others).

If create-yaml-tests is installed, switch to it now. If it is not installed, add it:

npx skills add ShiplightAI/agent-skills --skill create-yaml-tests
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.
