What it does
QA Test Runner is an agent skill from GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules. Triggers the QA Test Runner subagent to reproduce failures and interpret logs.
Its SKILL.md is about 280 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 Agent Workflows, covering Subagents. The repository describes itself as: Add Google Cloud Platform support to Terraform.
When your agent uses it
- The QA Test Runner subagent to reproduce failures and interpret logs
- Tasks that involve Subagents
Example prompts
- “Use the qa-test-runner skill to trigger the QA Test Runner subagent to reproduce failures and interpret logs”
- “/qa-test-runner”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Identify Target and Context
- Invoke Subagent
- Verify Report
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e5db069. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
QA Test Runner loads about 276 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 23 tokens; SKILL.md has 131 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 131 words (~276 tokens).
“Use this skill to delegate heavy test reproduction and log parsing to a dedicated Subagent. This keeps your main context window clean.”
