Overview

AI-generated overview

A local MCP server that lets an AI assistant search, read and install curated QA testing skills from qaskills.sh into its own agent configuration.

What you can do
Search and browse the QA skills directory, including categories and a leaderboard of skills and their quality scores. Read a skill's details and full SKILL.md content before installing it. Install a chosen QA skill into the detected AI agent's configuration directory. List the categories available in the directory. Skills cover areas such as Playwright, Cypress, Jest, API, security, performance and accessibility testing.
When to use it
Useful when you want your coding agent to gain expert QA testing patterns, such as Playwright end-to-end or API test conventions, without copying them by hand. Suited to teams that want a curated, QA-specific skill library rather than generic skill collections.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio, typically launched with npx from the npm package @qaskills/mcp, so Node.js and network access to qaskills.sh are needed. The optional QASKILLS_API_URL environment variable overrides the API base URL. No authentication is declared.
Before you install
The install tool writes skill files into your AI agent's configuration directory, changing how that agent behaves; review a skill's content before installing it. Skill content comes from a third-party directory and is followed by the agent, so treat it as untrusted. The optional QASKILLS_API_URL setting can redirect requests to a different host.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Qaskills in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

Why QASkills.sh?

Among 49,000+ skills on Vercel's skills.sh, barely any are dedicated to QA testing. QASkills.sh fills that gap — a curated, QA-specific skills directory that gives your AI coding agent expert-level testing knowledge with a single command.

bash
npx @qaskills/cli add playwright-e2e
  ✓ Detected agent: Claude Code  ✓ Installing playwright-e2e v1.0.0...  ✓ Skill installed successfully!

Your AI agent now writes Playwright tests using Page Object Model, fixtures, and best practices — automatically.


Quick Start

1. Install a skill (no global install needed)

bash
npx @qaskills/cli add playwright-e2e

2. Or install globally for faster access

bash
npm i -g @qaskills/cliqaskills add playwright-e2e

3. Search for skills

bash
npx @qaskills/cli search "api testing"

4. List installed skills

bash
npx @qaskills/cli list

5. Remove a skill

bash
npx @qaskills/cli remove playwright-e2e

6. Or use the MCP server (search and install from inside your agent)

Listed in the official MCP registry as io.github.PramodDutta/qaskills.

bash
# Claude Codeclaude mcp add qaskills -- npx -y @qaskills/mcp
json
// Any MCP client (Cursor, Windsurf, etc.){  "mcpServers": {    "qaskills": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@qaskills/mcp"] }  }}

Your agent gets six tools: search_skills, get_skill, get_skill_content, install_skill, list_categories, get_leaderboard. See packages/mcp.

How It Works

1. SEARCH   →  Browse skills on qaskills.sh or search via CLI2. INSTALL  →  npx @qaskills/cli add <skill-name>3. TEST     →  Your AI agent now has QA expertise built-in

The CLI auto-detects which AI agent you're using (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, etc.) and installs the skill's SKILL.md to the correct configuration directory. Your agent reads this file and follows the testing patterns automatically.

50% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
