python-testing-patterns is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zebbern/termstack. It costs 38 tokens per session (3,853 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A set of Python testing patterns using pytest, a framework for running Python tests, along with test fixtures, mocks, and test-driven development (TDD), where tests are written before code.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for writing Python tests, creating reusable test setup, replacing real dependencies with mocks, and developing with TDD.
Why use it?
It gives structure to test suites and helps avoid repeated setup, unreliable dependencies, and untested behavior.

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

python-testing-patterns scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

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.
