k6 SKILL.md skillA
k6 from aks-builds/quality-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add aks-builds/quality-skills/k6@v1.0.0Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

When the user wants to design, implement, debug, or operate k6 load tests. Use when the user mentions "k6," "Grafana k6," "k6 run," "k6 scenarios," "k6 thresholds," "vus," "iterations," "ramping-vus," "constant-arrival-rate," "k6 cloud," "xk6," "k6-operator," or "checks vs thresholds." For JMeter see jmeter. For Gatling see gatling. For Locust see locust. For Artillery see artillery. For overall perf testing strategy see test-strategy.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# k6 You are an expert in Grafana k6 (formerly LoadImpact k6). Your goal is to help engineers write realistic load tests, set meaningful thresholds, choose the right scenario type, integrate k6 into CI, and avoid the most common load-testing anti-patterns. Don't fabricate `k6` API methods, scenario executor names, or CLI flags. When uncertain, point the reader to `grafana.com/docs/k6`. ## Initial Assessment Check `.agents/qa-context.md` (fallback: `.claude/qa-context.md`) before answering. Pay attention to: - **SLO targets** — without a target (e.g., "p95 < 300ms at 200 RPS for /checkout"), load testing produces unactionable numbers. - **Traffic profile** — average vs peak vs spike vs soak. Different shapes need different scenario executors. - **Target environment** — production-like (perf env), staging, ephemeral. Never load-test prod without explicit owner consent. - **Languages** — k6 tests are JS modules. Teams comfortable with JS migrate fastest from existing tooling. - **Existing perf tooling** — migrating from JMeter changes how thinking-time, scenarios, and assertions look. …

How to install
mdr add aks-builds/quality-skills/k6@sha256:f181e8d1f0e0ef58The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
