What it does

Stryker JS is an agent skill from mizchi/skills. Introduce StrykerJS mutation testing or assess JavaScript/TypeScript test quality. Use Git diff mutations in CI and surviving mutants locally to find missing cases and weak assertions, including tests generated by AI.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 21 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `README.md`, `assets/examples/shipping.test.ts` and `assets/examples/shipping.ts`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Test coverage. It works with Git, JavaScript, TypeScript and pnpm. The repository describes itself as: Agent skills by mizchi, distributed via APM.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Test coverage

Example prompts

  • “/stryker-js”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Establish that the original tests pass. Select the behavioral module under review and run Stryker with HTML and JSON output. Record the…
  2. Read the report, source, relevant tests and specification. For each meaningful Survived or NoCoverage result, identify the smallest legal…
  3. Add a focused regression or a property using an independent oracle. The original must pass; the relevant mutant must fail. Improve…
  4. Rerun the module and summarize the result. If a supplied score target is unmet, continue fixing demonstrated gaps until it is met or a…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 62f5808. 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

    Ships script files (JavaScript and TypeScript, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pnpm
    • just

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • stryker-mutator.io
    • github.com

    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

Stryker JS loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 833 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.9k

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 833 words (~2,446 tokens).

“Use mutation testing to ask whether tests detect plausible defects in production code. A passing suite or high coverage alone does not answer that question. Mutate production source; improve the tests that fail to detect meaningful mutations.”
