Write, fix, and review Cypress acceptance tests for Shopsys storefront.

  • Works in 2 steps: Register in tids.ts → Add to React component
  • Working with Cypress test files (.cy.ts)

  • Calls make; reaches 19-0.odin.shopsys.cloud and ssfwcc.dev.shopsys.cloud

What it does

Cypress Tests is an agent skill from shopsys/shopsys. Write, fix, and review Cypress acceptance tests for Shopsys storefront. Use when working with Cypress test files (.cy.ts), adding test IDs (TIDs), or debugging test failures. Enforces project conventions: TID-based selectors, proper snapshot setup, and support file patterns.

Its SKILL.md is about 12k 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 End-to-end testing. It works with Cypress. The repository describes itself as: Main repository for maintaining Shopsys Platform packages. Open for ISSUES and PULL REQUESTS.

When your agent uses it

  • Working with Cypress test files (.cy.ts)
  • Adding test IDs (TIDs)
  • Debugging test failures

Example prompts

  • “/cypress-tests”

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Register in tids.ts
  2. Add to React component

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3c4bf38. 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:

    • make

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • 19-0.odin.shopsys.cloud
    • ssfwcc.dev.shopsys.cloud

    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

Cypress Tests loads about 12k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,891 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~12k

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 1,891 words (~12,008 tokens).

“You are an expert Cypress test writer for the Shopsys Platform storefront. Follow these conventions EXACTLY when writing, reviewing, or fixing tests.”
