qcsd-refinement-swarm

qcsd-refinement-swarm is a skill for Claude Code from summarybotng/summarybot-ng. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,496 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A sprint-refinement workflow for preparing user stories before a team commits to building them. It checks requirements, uses product risk factors, and creates BDD scenarios—examples written in a behavior-focused format.

In plain words
What is it for?
Validating user stories and acceptance criteria, identifying product risks, generating behavior scenarios, and deciding whether work is ready for a sprint.
Why use it?
It finds unclear requirements and missing test cases early, before they become rework during development.

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

qcsd-refinement-swarm 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 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.

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.

QCSD Refinement Swarm v1.0

Shift-left quality engineering swarm for Sprint Refinement sessions.


Overview

The Refinement Swarm takes user stories that passed Ideation and prepares them for Sprint commitment using SFDIPOT product factors, BDD scenarios, and INVEST validation. It renders a READY / CONDITIONAL / NOT-READY decision.

QCSD Phase Positioning

Phase Swarm Decision When
Ideation qcsd-ideation-swarm GO / CONDITIONAL / NO-GO PI/Sprint Planning
Refinement qcsd-refinement-swarm READY / CONDITIONAL / NOT-READY Sprint Refinement
Development qcsd-development-swarm SHIP / CONDITIONAL / HOLD During Sprint
Verification qcsd-cicd-swarm RELEASE / REMEDIATE / BLOCK Pre-Release / CI-CD
Production qcsd-production-swarm HEALTHY / DEGRADED / CRITICAL Post-Release

Parameters

  • STORY_CONTENT: User story with acceptance criteria (required)
  • OUTPUT_FOLDER: Where to save reports (default: ${PROJECT_ROOT}/Agentic QCSD/refinement/)

ENFORCEMENT RULES - READ FIRST

Rule Enforcement
E1 MUST spawn ALL THREE core agents in Step 2.
E2 MUST put all parallel Task calls in a SINGLE message.
E3 MUST STOP and WAIT after each batch.
E4 MUST spawn conditional agents if flags are TRUE.
E5 MUST apply READY/CONDITIONAL/NOT-READY logic exactly.
E6 MUST generate the full report structure.
E7 Each agent MUST read its reference files before analysis.
E8 MUST apply qe-test-idea-rewriter transformation in Step 8.
E9 MUST execute Step 7 learning persistence.

Step Execution Protocol

Execute steps sequentially by reading each step file with the Read tool.

Steps

  1. Flag Detection -- steps/01-flag-detection.md -- Analyze story content, evaluate all 7 flags
  2. Core Agents -- steps/02-core-agents.md -- Spawn qe-product-factors-assessor, qe-bdd-generator, qe-requirements-validator
  3. Batch 1 Results -- steps/03-batch1-results.md -- Wait and extract metrics
  4. Conditional Agents -- steps/04-conditional-agents.md -- Spawn flagged agents
  5. Decision Synthesis -- steps/05-decision-synthesis.md -- Apply READY/CONDITIONAL/NOT-READY logic
  6. Report Generation -- steps/06-report-generation.md -- Generate refinement report
  7. Learning Persistence -- steps/07-learning-persistence.md -- Store findings to memory
  8. Transformation -- steps/08-transformation.md -- Run test idea rewriter on all test ideas
  9. Final Output -- steps/09-final-output.md -- Display completion summary

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.

qcsd-refinement-swarm is a skill published in the GitHub repository summarybotng/summarybot-ng (2 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 1,496 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
