What it does

Run Smoke Tests is an agent skill from cursor/plugins, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Run Playwright smoke tests, debug failures, and verify fixes

Its SKILL.md is about 240 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Testing & QA, covering QA and bug reports. It works with Playwright. The repository describes itself as: Cursor plugin specification and official plugins.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve QA and bug reports

Example prompts

  • “/run-smoke-tests”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Build prerequisites for the target app.
  2. Run the relevant smoke suite or a focused test file.
  3. If failing, inspect traces/logs and isolate the root cause.
  4. Apply a minimal fix and rerun until stable.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ccb5507. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Run Smoke Tests loads about 242 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 19 tokens; SKILL.md has 90 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~19
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~242

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 90 words (~242 tokens).

“Need end-to-end smoke verification before or after changes.”
