api-testing skillA

api-testing is agent-read markdown (skill) from naodeng/awesome-qa-skills: Use this skill when you need to design API test plans or cases for REST, GraphQL, or gRPC interfaces; triggers include API testing and API test cases..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# API Testing (English)

**Chinese version:** See the corresponding Chinese skill.

## When to Use

- Need an API test plan, API cases, or API risk analysis.
- The request involves REST, GraphQL, SOAP, gRPC, WebSocket, or mixed API behavior.

## Workflow

1. Read and follow the main prompt listed under Progressive disclosure (coverage, structure, quality bar).
2. Add only project context that changes the result: scope, environment, constraints, risks, dependencies, expected deliverable.
3. If input is incomplete, return a usable first draft and explicitly mark assumptions and gaps.
4. Default to Markdown; switch formats only when the user asks.

## Core Constraints

- Prioritize by risk / business impact — do not treat everything equally.
- Separate confirmed facts from current assumptions.
- Do not invent endpoints, fields, environments, or root causes the user did not provide.
- Keep output executable: concrete scenarios, clear priority, clear next steps.

## Progressive Disclosure

- Before producing output, read and follow `prompts/api-testing.md` (minimum coverage, output structure, quality bar).
