Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill enables AI agents to execute advanced Pytest test suites directly within their workflow, allowing for sophisticated testing beyond basic assertions. It facilitates running complex test configurations and managing intricate test environments automatically.
When to use it
- Automating regression testing for large codebases before deployment.
- Executing parameterized tests that require specific environment setups.
- Running integration tests that depend on external services or databases.
- Validating code changes against a comprehensive suite of edge cases.
Key capabilities
- Direct execution of Pytest test commands via AI agent interfaces.
- Support for advanced Pytest features like fixtures, markers, and plugins.
- Integration with existing
pytest.iniorpyproject.tomlconfigurations. - Ability to handle complex test discovery and collection strategies.
Example prompts
- "Run the full pytest suite for the authentication module and report any failures."
- "Execute parameterized tests in the API directory using the 'slow' marker."
- "Run integration tests while ensuring the database container is started first via fixtures."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your project has a valid pytest.ini or pyproject.toml configured before invoking advanced features, as the agent relies on these files to understand test scope and markers. Be mindful of execution time; large suites may take longer to complete than simple unit tests.
