e2e-setup

Set up an end-to-end test suite in any repo, following practices that make e2e a reliable per-PR gate: real flows over bypass, layered assertions, a reusable auth/session helper, video+trace evidence, and a compounding suite. Use when a repo has no e2e (or weak e2e) and you want system-level tests — "set up e2e", "add end-to-end tests", "scaffold a test gate".

Set up an e2e test suite

E2e tests verify the whole running system through the app (browser/API), not one module. They are the per-PR gate. Pairs with dev-local-setup (a reproducible local stack) and verifier-setup (which scaffolds the repo's /verify skill — the verify→ship loop this gate feeds into).

Where it lives

  • Unit/integration tests stay inside each app/package — they own one module.
  • System e2e is a dedicated top-level package (e.g. e2e/) — it spans all apps, so it belongs to none. Add it to the workspace if a monorepo.

The recipe

  1. Stand the app up reproducibly — see dev-local-setup. The e2e suite never boots the app itself; it runs against the already-running stack. That stack can be local (dev-local-setup) or an isolated cloud box (crabbox-setup) — same specs, run against either. For parallel agents use the cloud box (one laptop can't host concurrent stacks).
  2. Pick the framework that fits (Playwright for browser; your HTTP client for API). Turn on video + trace — the recording is the proof, and it's gitignored output.
  3. Explore the flow live first (don't guess selectors), then crystallize it into a committed spec.
  4. Keep the gate small: a handful of critical journeys, deterministic. Each new feature PR adds its spec — the suite compounds.

Practices that make e2e trustworthy

  • Real flow, not bypass. Drive the genuine path. For email codes / OTP, read the real code from a local mail server (Mailpit / Inbucket / MailHog) — never hardcode a fixed test code. That's what makes it a test, not a rehearsal.
  • Verify auth ITSELF once; bypass it everywhere else. A dedicated signup/login spec proves auth works. Every other spec shouldn't re-pay the login tax — build a session helper that mints an authed state once (real flow → saved storage state, or a service-role/token mint) and load it.
  • Layered assertions: client → server → product. Don't stop at "the UI changed." Confirm the server agrees (token validates / row/state is right) AND the user-visible outcome (e.g. plan upgraded and credits granted).
  • Stable selectors. Prefer role/label/text; add a small data-testid in the component when there's no good handle — never a brittle CSS path.
  • Fresh data per run. Unique emails/ids so reruns don't collide; mind rate limits (auth email, etc.).
  • Commit specs + helpers, never test-results/ (generated output).

When a test fails: triage before "fixing"

A red e2e is information. Classify first:

  • Real bug — the product broke. Fix the code; the test did its job.
  • Stale test — the flow intentionally changed (renamed route, new step). Update the test to match the new contract.
  • Flaky / env — stack down, timing, rate limit, stale data. Fix robustness/env.

Never weaken or delete an assertion just to go green. Loosening is only correct when the intended contract changed — confirmed from the diff, not assumed.

External services (payments, email, 3rd-party)

Use the vendor's test/sandbox mode, never live keys — and guard hard: the test should refuse to run if it detects a live key/credential. If a webhook completes the flow, forward it locally (e.g. the vendor's CLI listener) so the e2e exercises the real fulfilment path, not a faked event.

Audit a repo's agent context — CLAUDE.md files, codebase docs, skills, and tool/MCP designs — against Anthropic's Claude 5 context-engineering guidance ("unhobbling": Anthropic cut ~80% of Claude Code's system prompt with no eval loss). Finds overconstraint, conflicting instructions, redundancy, stale facts, and missing "unknown knowns"; produces a scored findings report with concrete rewrites, then applies approved fixes. Use when someone says "audit my CLAUDE.md", "context audit", "unhobble this repo", "review our agent docs/skills/tools", or after upgrading to Claude 5-generation models.

Scaffold an isolated CLOUD dev box per agent (via crabbox + Daytona) for any codebase — the parallel-safe counterpart to dev-local-setup. Each agent gets its own full stack (own DB + dev server) and an in-box browser for e2e, so concurrent loops never collide on ports/state. Sets up the snapshot image, .crabbox.yaml, an idempotent setup.sh (also boots the stack locally), and a cbx.sh wrapper. Use when the user says "set up crabbox", "give each agent its own box", "add cloud testing", "make this repo testable in the cloud / on Daytona", "parallel-test this", or when setup-codebase-harness needs true per-agent isolation.

Scaffold a one-command `dev-local` launcher for ANY codebase. Investigates the repo to find its services, ports, and infra dependencies, then generates a single `scripts/dev-local.sh` (up/down/status/logs/restart) that runs every dev server in one tmux session, plus a short skill doc describing it. Use when someone says "set up dev-local", "make a one-command dev launcher", "I want one script to start this repo", "scaffold dev-local for this project".

Spin up a new loop (domain) in a file-based knowledge base — bootstrap the substrate if it's missing, gather the loop's charter, scaffold domains/<loop>/README.md, then do ONE real test run and record it in the loop's Timeline and LOG.md. Use when the user says "set up a new loop", "create a domain", "start a new beat/workstream", or names a recurring job they want the agent to own.

Delegate tasks to ANY CLI agent (claude, codex, aider, ...) running in a detached tmux session, with a race-safe done-signal protocol and multi-turn iteration. Use when delegating work to a non-Claude CLI agent, when the user says "tmux delegate", "run agent in tmux", "delegate to codex/aider", or when executor work should run in an observable background terminal instead of the Agent tool.
