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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00029 | $0.01566 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00783 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00313 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00157 |
Grade A, and why
testing-strategies 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.

How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 156 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Kailash Testing Strategies
3-tier testing strategy for Kailash applications. Tier 2/3 require real infrastructure — NO mocking (@patch, MagicMock, unittest.mock are BLOCKED) per rules/testing.md.
When to Use
Use when asking about testing, test strategy, 3-tier testing, unit tests, integration tests, end-to-end tests, testing workflows, testing DataFlow, testing Nexus, real infrastructure, NO mocking, test organization, or testing best practices.
Sub-File Index
- test-3tier-strategy - Complete 3-tier guide: tier definitions, fixture patterns, CI/CD integration
- probe-driven-verification - Probe-driven verification runbook (regex/keyword for semantic claims is BLOCKED). Per
rules/probe-driven-verification.md.
3-Tier Strategy
| Tier | Scope | Mocking | Speed | Infrastructure |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 - Unit | Functions, classes | Allowed | <1s/test | None |
| 2 - Integration | Workflows, DB, APIs | BLOCKED — real infra only | 1-10s/test | Real DB, real runtime |
| 3 - E2E | Complete user flows | BLOCKED — real infra only | 10s+/test | Real HTTP, real everything |
Real Infrastructure Policy (Tiers 2-3)
Why: Mocking hides database constraints, API timeouts, race conditions, connection pool exhaustion, schema migration issues, and LLM token limits.
What to use instead: Test databases (Docker containers), test API endpoints, test LLM accounts (with caching), temp directories.
Key Fixtures
@pytest.fixture
def db():
"""Real database for testing."""
db = DataFlow("postgresql://test:test@localhost:5433/test_db")
db.create_tables()
yield db
db.drop_tables()
@pytest.fixture
def runtime():
return LocalRuntime()
What ships with it
5 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.
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.

testing-strategies is a skill published in the GitHub repository terrene-foundation/kailash-coc-claude-py (12 stars, last pushed 24d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 1,566 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
