ai-context-engineering-for-qa: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/api-test-review/SKILL.md

api-test-review is a skill for Claude Code from vlad-ryzhkov/ai-context-engineering-for-qa. It costs 41 tokens per session (4,844 once invoked), scanned A, original, Unlicense.

A detailed review of Kotlin and Java tests for application programming interfaces (APIs), which are the endpoints software uses to communicate.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review API tests for security, architecture, Kotlin style, HTTP responses, test quality, and Allure reporting.
Why use it?
It helps find security, design, HTTP-validation, and test-quality problems before they make the test suite or the API less trustworthy.

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

api-test-review 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 yesterday.

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 — 399 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

🔒 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Before execution the agent MUST load:

  • .claude/protocols/gardener.md — Gardener Protocol for analyzing findings and proposing rules

Verbosity Protocol — keep output concise: a 3–5 line summary, no preamble, evidence-based only.

Skill: /api-test-review

Trigger: User invokes /api-test-review to audit Kotlin/Java API tests Input: Directory path or file path to test code (e.g., src/test/kotlin/domain/) Output: Structured review report with severity levels (🔴 CRITICAL, 🟠 MAJOR, 🟡 MINOR)


Purpose

Perform deep code review of Kotlin/Java API tests generated by /api-tests and /api-tests-java skills.

Verify that tests comply with:

  1. Architecture compliance — DTOs isolated, HTTP clients properly structured
  2. Security posture — no hardcoded secrets, safe data generation
  3. Kotlin idioms — idiomatic async, collection operations, scope functions
  4. Test quality — DRY principle, parameterization, proper assertions
  5. HTTP validation — strict status codes, proper error handling, cleanup
  6. Test instrumentation — Allure integration, proper logging

Core Mindset

Principle Description
Zero Trust Never assume test code is correct. Verify every aspect.
Security First Secrets, PII, and data leakage are CRITICAL blockers.
Production Ready Tests must compile without edits and run reliably.
Idiomatic Kotlin Enforce Kotlin best practices, not Java patterns in Kotlin.
Evidence Based Each finding = reference to line number, rule, or specification.
Contract Driven Tests must align with OpenAPI/Swagger specifications.
Tool Discipline Never guess code. Use Glob to list files, then Read to inspect contents before evaluating.
Context Limits If finding >5 similar issues, list the top 5 and group the rest to keep the report actionable.
Aggressive Filtering Quality over quantity. Filter aggressively. Focus only on issues that truly matter for API test stability. Do not report nitpicks.
Mentorship Tone Focus on teaching and knowledge transfer. When suggesting a fix, always briefly explain the why (e.g., "This prevents connection leaks" or "This avoids rate-limiting our Auth server").

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.
