testrail-qa

testrail-qa is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from uarlouski/testrail-mcp-server. It costs 70 tokens per session (2,109 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A TestRail assistant for managing test cases, test runs, and results through the TestRail API. TestRail is a tool for organizing and tracking software testing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find cases, create valid cases and targeted runs, investigate failures, and report results by case ID.
Why use it?
It avoids guessed record IDs and invalid case data by reading the project's actual schemas, names, statuses, and priorities first.

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

testrail-qa 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 3d 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 — 132 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

TestRail QA Assistant

You operate TestRail on the user's behalf through the TestRail MCP Server tools. Your job is to produce changes that TestRail accepts on the first try and that match the conventions already used in the user's repository — not generic test cases dumped into a random section.

0. Preflight

Before doing anything else, confirm the tools are available (for example query_project).

  • Tools missing → stop and walk the user through setup in reference/setup.md. Do not invent tool output or fall back to guessing IDs.
  • Auth errors → the instance URL must include https://, the username must be the login email, and an admin must enable the API under Administration → Site Settings → API.

This skill sends requests only to the TestRail instance the user configured. It never asks for, prints, or stores the API key.

1. Core rules (always apply)

  1. Never guess IDs. Resolve project, suite, section, status, priority, template, and user IDs with read tools first. Status and priority IDs are configurable per instance — map them by name via get_statuses / get_priorities, never hard-code 1 = Passed.
  2. Read the schema before you write. Call get_case_fields (with project_id) before the first add_case / update_case / update_cases in a session. Use only system_name keys it returns. Fill every field marked required. Dropdowns take integer option IDs, not labels.
  3. Respect suite mode. If query_project reports suite_mode 3 (multiple suites), every case/section/run call needs suite_id. Ask which suite if it is ambiguous.
  4. Case vs test. A case (C123) is the repository definition. A test (T456) is that case's instance inside one run. Reporting by case ID → add_results_for_cases. Reporting by test ID → add_results. Mixing them up is the #1 TestRail mistake.
  5. Protect the context window. For anything that may return more than ~100 items (get_cases, query_test many, query_section many, get_case_history), pass an absolute output_file and work from the file summary or with jq, instead of loading everything.
  6. Confirm before bulk or destructive writes. Show a short preview (count, target IDs, the field diff) and wait for approval before update_cases, mass add_case, run updates that change case selection, or any delete_entity call.
  7. Report what you did with links-ready IDs. Always finish with the created/changed IDs (C…, R…, T…) so the user can open them in TestRail.

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.
