Testing Skill Discovery (English)

中文版： See the corresponding Chinese skill.

When to Use

Need to decide which testing skill should be used before execution.
The request mixes multiple testing directions or phases.

Workflow

Read the user request and identify the primary testing goal and stage.
Follow the routing prompt under prompts/: pick 1 primary skill; add at most 1 helper only when needed.
Hand the request to the target skill; do not execute the full testing work inside this router skill.

Core Constraints

Recommend few skills — avoid menu dumping.
If the target skill is already obvious, say so directly.
Make the route actionable: name the skill and the reason.

Progressive Disclosure

Before producing output, read and follow prompts/discover-testing.md (minimum coverage, output structure, quality bar).
When Excel/CSV/JSON/Word is requested: read output-formats.md and honor the format.
When a ready-made template fits: use matching files under output-templates/.
For format conversion or helper checks: prefer existing scripts/ over reinventing.
For evaluating/regressing this skill: use evals/ with skill-up.
For step ↔ prompt mapping: read reference.md.

Pre-delivery Checklist

[ ] Followed the main prompt's output structure
[ ] Minimum coverage focus: main goal, best-fit primary skill, optional supporting skill, why this choice fits, next step to continue work (details in main prompt)
[ ] Covered the minimum checklist, or explained omissions
[ ] High-risk items have explicit priority
[ ] Did not invent details the user did not provide
[ ] Assumptions and gaps are marked

Common Pitfalls

Do not recommend many skills at once.
Do not turn skill selection into full test execution.
Do not pretend a route is complete when information is insufficient.

Verification Before Completion

by ZhanlinCui

×6

Use when about to claim work is complete, fixed, or passing, before committing or creating PRs - requires running verification commands and confirming output before making any success claims; evidence before assertions always

Expert guidance for systematic backtesting of trading strategies. Use when developing, testing, stress-testing, or validating quantitative trading strategies. Covers "beating ideas to death" methodology, parameter robustness testing, slippage modeling, bias prevention, and interpreting backtest results. Applicable when user asks about backtesting, strategy validation, robustness testing, avoiding overfitting, or systematic trading development.

Cloud laboratory platform for automated protein testing and validation. Use when designing proteins and needing experimental validation including binding assays, expression testing, thermostability measurements, enzyme activity assays, or protein sequence optimization. Also use for submitting experiments via API, tracking experiment status, downloading results, optimizing protein sequences for better expression using computational tools (NetSolP, SoluProt, SolubleMPNN, ESM), or managing protein design workflows with wet-lab validation.

This skill should be used for time series machine learning tasks including classification, regression, clustering, forecasting, anomaly detection, segmentation, and similarity search. Use when working with temporal data, sequential patterns, or time-indexed observations requiring specialized algorithms beyond standard ML approaches. Particularly suited for univariate and multivariate time series analysis with scikit-learn compatible APIs.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
