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 | $0.00037 | $0.04428 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00015 | $0.01771 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00886 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00443 |
Grade A, and why
qa-testing-strategy 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 19d 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 — 230 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
QA Testing Strategy
Risk-based quality engineering guidance for modern software delivery. Use this skill to decide what to test, at which layer, with which gates, and how to keep the signal trustworthy.
Start with references/operational-playbook.md for the navigation hub. Use current official sources from data/sources.json when you need vendor or standards guidance.
Scope
- Create or update a risk-based test strategy
- Choose a test shape (pyramid, trophy, honeycomb) based on architecture and defect origin
- Define merge gates, deploy gates, and release evidence — including merge queue interaction
- Choose the smallest effective layer: unit, component, contract, schema fuzzing, integration, E2E, property-based
- Make failures diagnosable with artifacts, correlation IDs, traces, and ownership
- Operationalize suite health: flake SLO, quarantine policy, execution budgets, dashboards
Use Instead
| Need | Skill |
|---|---|
| Implement or debug Playwright suites | qa-testing-playwright |
| Design API contract suites in depth | qa-api-testing-contracts |
| Debug failing tests or incidents | qa-debugging |
| Add observability, telemetry, or tracing | qa-observability |
| Test LLM agents or evaluations | qa-agent-testing |

| Security audit or threat-model depth | software-security-appsec |
| CI/CD pipeline design and infra | ops-devops-platform |
Quick Reference
| Layer | Goal | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|
| Unit | Prove logic and invariants fast | Pure functions, domain rules, validators |
| Component | Validate UI behavior in a real browser with narrow scope | UI components, state transitions, accessibility smoke |
| Contract | Prevent breaking changes across service boundaries | OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, JSON Schema, Protobuf |
| Schema fuzzing | Stress the API contract with generated valid and invalid inputs | Request/response edge cases, parser and validation drift |
| Property-based | Verify universal invariants across generated input spaces | Serialization round-trips, numeric contracts, state-machine invariants, AI-code edge cases |
| Integration | Validate real boundaries and dependencies | API + DB, queues, adapters, auth flows |
| E2E | Validate thin critical journeys | Sign-up, checkout, publish, payment, admin recovery |
| Performance | Enforce budgets and capacity | Load, stress, soak, latency regression |
| Visual | Catch intentional vs accidental UI changes | Stable pages, design-system components |
| Accessibility | Check for common WCAG 2.2 failures early | axe smoke + manual audit plan |
| Security | Catch common web/API vulnerabilities early | SAST, DAST smoke, auth and dependency checks |

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.

qa-testing-strategy is a skill published in the GitHub repository vasilyu1983/AI-Agents-public (101 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 4,428 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
