Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by TheBushidoCollective on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Test AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/TheBushidoCollective/han.git /tmp/han
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/han/plugins/core/skills/test .claude/skills/test

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Test in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Test on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Test is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Name

han-core:test - Write tests for code using test-driven development principles

Synopsis


/test [arguments]

Description

Write tests for code using test-driven development principles

Implementation

Write tests for the specified code or feature using test-driven development (TDD) methodology.

Process

Follow TDD methodology:

Understand the requirement: Clarify what needs to be tested
Write failing test first: Create a test that fails because the feature doesn't exist yet
Run the test: Verify it fails for the right reason
Implement minimal code: Write just enough code to make the test pass
Run test again: Verify it now passes
Refactor: Improve code quality while keeping tests green
Repeat: Continue for each requirement

Key Principles

Red → Green → Refactor: The core TDD cycle
Test behavior, not implementation: Focus on what the code does, not how
One test per requirement: Keep tests focused and clear
Verify test fails first: Ensures the test is actually testing something

Examples

When the user says:

"Write tests for the authentication module"
"Add tests for the calculateTotal function"
"I need test coverage for the user registration flow"
"Test the edge cases for date parsing"

Notes

Use TaskCreate to track progress through TDD cycles
Run full test suite before considering work complete
Tests should be clear enough to serve as documentation
Follow existing test patterns in the codebase

Frequently asked questions

What does the Test AI skill do?

Write tests for code using test-driven development principles

Why use Test on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Test is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Test in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/TheBushidoCollective/han/tree/main/plugins/core/skills/test. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Test?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Test?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Test with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Test AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by TheBushidoCollective. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.

Build a throwaway prototype to answer a design question. Use when the user wants to sanity-check whether a state model or logic feels right, or explore what a UI should look like.

Research

Investigate a question against high-trust primary sources and capture the findings as a Markdown file in the repo. Use when the user wants a topic researched, docs or API facts gathered, or reading…
