CCGS Skill Testing Framework

Quality assurance infrastructure for the Claude Code Game Studios framework. Tests the skills and agents themselves — not any game built with them.

This folder is self-contained and optional. Game developers using CCGS don't need it. To remove it entirely: rm -rf "CCGS Skill Testing Framework" — nothing in .claude/ depends on it.

How to use it

All testing is driven by two skills already in the framework:

Check structural compliance

/skill-test static [skill-name]     # Check one skill (7 checks)
/skill-test static all              # Check all 72 skills

Run a behavioral spec test

/skill-test spec gate-check         # Evaluate a skill against its written spec
/skill-test spec design-review

Check against category rubric

/skill-test category gate-check     # Evaluate one skill against its category metrics
/skill-test category all            # Run rubric checks across all categorized skills

See full coverage picture

/skill-test audit                   # Skills + agents: has-spec, last tested, result

Improve a failing skill

/skill-improve gate-check           # Test → diagnose → propose fix → retest loop

Updating the catalog

catalog.yaml tracks test coverage for every skill and agent. After running a test:

• /skill-test spec [name] will offer to update last_spec and last_spec_result
• /skill-test category [name] will offer to update last_category and last_category_result
• last_static and last_static_result are updated manually or via /skill-improve

---

Writing a new spec

1. Find the spec template at templates/skill-test-spec.md
2. Copy it to skills/[category]/[skill-name].md
3. Update the spec: field in catalog.yaml to point to the new file
4. Run /skill-test spec [skill-name] to validate it

---

Removing this framework

This folder has no hooks into the main project. To remove:

rm -rf "CCGS Skill Testing Framework"

The skills /skill-test and /skill-improve will still function — they'll simply report that catalog.yaml is missing and suggest running /skill-test audit to initialize it.
