Why quality-skills

AI coding agents are great at writing code — but without domain knowledge, they fabricate CLI flags, invent config keys, and generate test patterns that look right but break in CI. quality-skills gives your agent accurate, up-to-date knowledge of 40+ test automation tools and frameworks, so it helps you write tests that actually pass.

Every skill reads your project's qa-context first — your stack, languages, CI provider, browsers in scope — then applies the right tool idioms, not generic advice. The result: an agent that knows the difference between page.locator and page.find, understands k6 thresholds, and won't suggest Selenium when you're already on Playwright.

It works as a Claude Code plugin (one command to install), an MCP server (any MCP-compatible agent — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Zed, Windsurf, custom agents), or a plain file copy into .agents/skills/.

How skills work together

Skills reference each other and build on shared context. qa-context is the foundation — every other skill reads it first to understand your stack before doing anything.

Install

Option 1 — Claude Code Plugin (recommended)

/plugin marketplace add aks-builds/quality-skills
/plugin install quality-skills

Option 2 — MCP Server (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Zed, Windsurf, custom agents)

Add to your mcp_servers config (e.g. .mcp.json or claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "quality-skills": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["github:aks-builds/quality-skills/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Or if you have it cloned locally:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "quality-skills": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/quality-skills/mcp/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Option 3 — Clone and Copy

git clone https://github.com/aks-builds/quality-skills.git
cp -r quality-skills/skills/* .agents/skills/

Option 4 — Git Submodule

git submodule add https://github.com/aks-builds/quality-skills.git .agents/quality-skills

Usage

Once installed, ask your agent naturally:

"Set up Playwright for our Next.js app with parallel execution and tracing"
→ playwright_scaffold + ci-test-orchestration

"Why are these Cypress tests flaky?"
→ cypress + flaky-test-management

"Build a k6 load test for our checkout API targeting 200 RPS"
→ k6_scaffold + qa-context

"Add Pact contract testing between our web app and orders API"
→ pact-contract-testing + rest-assured

"Write a Cucumber feature for the password reset flow"
→ cucumber-gherkin + bdd-anti-patterns

Or invoke skills directly:

/playwright
/k6
/accessibility-testing
/hipaa-compliance
