What it does

Testing Assistant Conversations is an agent skill from dxos/dxos. Test assistant conversations, agents, and skills using AssistantTestLayer, Effect/vitest, ECHO types, and memoized LLM fixtures. Use when writing or fixing assistant-toolkit tests, skill.operation tests, AiSession flows, or when CI fails on missing memoized conversations.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k 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 Unit testing. It works with Vitest. The repository describes itself as: TypeScript implementation of the DXOS protocols, SDK, toolchain and Composer.

When your agent uses it

  • Fixing assistant-toolkit tests
  • Skill.operation tests
  • AiSession flows
  • CI fails on missing memoized conversations

Example prompts

  • “/testing-assistant-conversations”

Requirements

  • A credential in DX_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
  • A credential in OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN

Workflow steps

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

  1. Credentials — API keys must be in the environment. In this repo, load 1Password-injected env from the workspace root
  2. Run tests with generation
  3. Commit updated .store/conversations/** files.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f0fc12a. 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:

    • pnpm

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pnpm, 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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • DX_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
    • OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN
    • ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

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

Context cost

Testing Assistant Conversations loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 809 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~76
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.4k

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.

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 809 words (~2,449 tokens).

“This guide matches patterns in packages/core/assistant-toolkit and related packages (assistant, plugin-markdown, plugin-assistant). For regenerating model fixtures only, prefer the focused skill regenerate-model-fixture.”
