What it does
Run Tests is an agent skill from netboxlabs/netbox-branching. Run the netboxbranching plugin's Django test suite against a local NetBox checkout. Use when the user asks to run tests, run a specific test module/class/method, or verify changes pass before opening a PR.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 Backend & APIs, covering Test generation and Backend development. It works with Django. The repository describes itself as: Official NetBox Labs plugin that implements git-like branching functionality for NetBox.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks to run tests
- Run a specific test module/class/method
- Verify changes pass before opening a PR
Example prompts
- “/run-tests”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- NetBox checkout alongside this repo (../netbox or any sibling path).
- testing/configuration.py made visible to NetBox. CI does this without touching the
- Plugin installed in editable mode with test extras
- NetBox dependencies installed: pip install -r ../netbox/requirements.txt.
- Postgres + Redis reachable on localhost (defaults).
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1e8668b. 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:
pythonpip
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, 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 Tests loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 458 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 458 words (~1,156 tokens).
“This plugin uses Django's built-in test runner (django.test.TestCase), not pytest — pyproject.toml lists pytest as a test extra but the suite is invoked via NetBox's manage.py test. CI runs this exact command in .github/workflows/test.yml.”
