manual-test-planning

manual-test-planning is a skill for Claude Code from testdouble/han. It costs 201 tokens per session (2,556 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for creating a manual test plan: instructions a person follows to check software, with the results they should expect. It produces an overview, named tests, and detailed steps for each test.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps plan hands-on checks for features, user flows, and expected outcomes without relying on automated tests.
Why use it?
It turns project information into clear checks, so testers know exactly what to do and how to decide whether each check passed.

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

manual-test-planning 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 1mo 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 — 173 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Project Context

  • personal config directory: !bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/han-config-dir.sh" 2>/dev/null || echo "$HOME/.claude"
  • project .han/config.md: !cat .han/config.md 2>/dev/null || echo ""

As your first action, use the Read tool on .han/config.md inside the personal config directory path above. A read that returns no file is no personal configuration: continue silently. When that file or the project .han/config.md probe supplies content, apply it per config-rule.md, which governs precedence between the two files, relative-path resolution, and what to do with a file that reads but cannot be used.

Operating Principles

  • Group outcomes only when the steps are identical. A test verifies a single outcome, or a group of related outcomes only when the exact same steps produce every outcome in the group. If any outcome needs a different or additional step, it gets its own test, BECAUSE a person following one step list can only check the outcomes those steps actually produce.
  • Every test states its expected outcomes. A step list without an expected outcome is not a test. Each test's detail section ends with the outcome or outcomes the person should observe, so they can tell pass from fail on the spot.
  • No manual tests means no document. When the supplied context contains nothing a person can test by hand, say so clearly and ask for more context instead of writing a file. Never invent or pad testable outcomes, BECAUSE a plan built on guesses sends the tester chasing outcomes the work never promised.
  • Plain language only. The plan is written for the person who runs the tests by hand, who may not be technical. Short, concise sentences. No file paths, function names, code, or framework jargon anywhere in the document. Describe what the person does and sees through the product's own surfaces (screens, commands, pages, messages), not how the code works, BECAUSE the reader follows the plan without ever reading the code.

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.
