What it does

Agent Loop Testing is an agent skill from majiayu000/claude-skill-registry. Use this skill when you need evidence-bounded loop state, plan/action/observation cycles, stop conditions, budgets, repetition, and trace evidence; triggers include Agent 循环 and Agent loop.

Its SKILL.md is about 440 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Autonomous loops. The repository describes itself as: Searchable Claude Code skills catalog with source-linked guides and generated registry artifacts. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • You need evidence-bounded loop state
  • Plan/action/observation cycles
  • Stop conditions
  • Triggers include Agent 循环 and Agent loop

Example prompts

  • “/agent-loop-testing”

Workflow steps

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

  1. 先阅读并遵循 prompts/agent-loop-testing.md,包括输入审计、领域覆盖和输出顺序。
  2. 提取范围、环境、版本、时间窗口、约束、成功标准和可用证据,重点检查循环状态、规划动作观察、停止条件、预算、重复行为。
  3. 先区分已确认事实、证据支持的推断、候选建议和 Human 决策,再按风险与证据强度排序。
  4. 把高风险项转成前置条件、步骤、预期结果或判断标准、所需证据和验证方法。
  5. 信息不足时交付受限初版,明确哪些结论不能成立,不把静态材料写成执行结果。

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2d14a69. 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

Agent Loop Testing loads about 436 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 52 tokens; SKILL.md has 86 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~52
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~436

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.

Agent 循环测试(中文版)

何时使用

  • 需要围绕循环状态、规划/动作/观察周期、停止条件、预算、重复行为与 trace 证据开展有证据的分析、设计或验证准备。
  • 需要评审 Agent、RAG 或 LLM 方案、结果或证据,并形成可执行改进项。
  • 输入不完整,但仍需交付带假设、信息缺口和人工决策边界的受限初版。

输出格式选项

  • 默认输出 Markdown,按领域风险、证据状态、优先级和边界组织。
  • 用户要求表格、CSV、JSON 或工单格式时,保留相同的发现字段、证据和决策边界。
  • 输出进入自动化流程前,先确认 schema、枚举值、必填项和证据来源。

如何使用

  1. 先阅读并遵循 prompts/agent-loop-testing.md,包括输入审计、领域覆盖和输出顺序。
  2. 提取范围、环境、版本、时间窗口、约束、成功标准和可用证据,重点检查循环状态、规划动作观察、停止条件、预算、重复行为。
  3. 先区分已确认事实、证据支持的推断、候选建议和 Human 决策,再按风险与证据强度排序。
  4. 把高风险项转成前置条件、步骤、预期结果或判断标准、所需证据和验证方法。
  5. 信息不足时交付受限初版,明确哪些结论不能成立,不把静态材料写成执行结果。

参考文件

  • 每次执行必须读取 prompts/agent-loop-testing.md;它是本 Skill 的完整执行规范。
  • 需要评测时读取 evals/eval.yaml 和 evals/cases/ 下的匹配用例。
  • 只有目录实际存在且任务需要时,才读取 references/、examples/、scripts/ 或 output-formats.md,不要假设不存在的资产。

核心约束

  • 只分析循环状态、规划/动作/观察周期、停止条件、预算、重复行为与 trace 证据,不替代业务负责人或 Human 的风险接受、例外批准和安全决定。
  • 不编造系统行为、字段、模型输出、数据、阈值、根因、执行记录或通过结论。
  • 静态设计、计划、文件存在或 dry-run 只能保留原证据状态,不能升级为真实执行证明。
  • 证据不足时使用待确认、blocked、unassessed 或 NOT_SCORED,并给出最小验证方法。
  • 涉及用户数据、生产或安全时采用最小权限、脱敏数据、mock、dry-run 或隔离环境。

交付前自检

  • 已覆盖循环状态、规划动作观察、停止条件、预算、重复行为,并为每项记录来源、证据状态和验证方法。
  • 已分开事实、推断、候选建议、信息缺口和 Human 决策。
  • 高风险项有 P0/P1/P2/P3 或等价优先级、责任角色和关闭条件。
  • 未把计划、静态检查或 dry-run 写成测试执行、全部通过或安全批准。
  • 已说明剩余风险、停止/升级条件和下一步。

常见误区

  • 只列检查点,不说明触发条件、预期关注点、责任角色、关闭条件和证据。
  • 把相邻领域的测试或模型工具名当成Agent 循环的完整判断。
  • 用未经说明的数字制造伪精确,或把相关性写成因果关系。
  • 输入不完整时直接拒绝,或反过来假装结论已经确定。

最佳实践

  • 从最可能造成用户伤害、业务损失或决策阻塞的路径开始。
  • 使用最小可验证实验缩小不确定性,并记录条件、版本、来源和证据。
  • 让另一位工程师能够独立安装、执行和复核本 Skill 的产出。
