K6 Test Maintenance

by grafana1ccacf29049fNo license279 starsListed Oct 8, 2026Updated Oct 8, 2026Repository updated today

Maintain and improve existing k6 test scripts. Covers threshold tightening based on trend data, version migration between k6 releases, auto-fixing tests when the underlying service changes, refactoring for cleanliness, and auditing scripts against current best practices from docs. Use when the user asks to fix a failing k6 test, tighten thresholds, migrate a script to a new k6 version, refactor a test, update a script after a service change, or improve a script with best practices. Trigger on phrases like "fix my k6 test", "tighten my thresholds", "migrate to k6 v2", "update my test script", "refactor this k6 test", "my test is failing after a deploy", "apply best practices to my script", "modernize my k6 test", or "the service changed and my test broke". Also trigger when another skill (k6-trend-analysis or k6-cloud-investigate-test) hands off with a recommendation to edit a script.

Add to a SourceWeft workspace

  1. Open the skill in your dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable it for the chats that should use it.

This skill is instructions only: it ships no scripts to execute.

Add to SourceWeft

You will be asked to sign in first, then taken straight to this skill.

Ask your agent to install it

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent that can run commands — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this skill's install guide, shows you its source, license and scripts, and installs it with the SourceWeft CLI once you agree.

Read https://sourceweft.com/skills/gh-grafana-skills-k6-test-maintenance/install.md and install the skill it describes. Before installing, show me its source, license and whether it ships scripts, and wait for my OK. Ask me before changing anything else on my machine.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Install it yourself from a terminal

For Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other local agents. The SourceWeft CLI fetches the skill from its source repository at the commit scanned here, and verifies every file against the hashes recorded when the skill was scanned. If anything differs, nothing is written.

npx @sourceweft/cli skills install gh-grafana-skills-k6-test-maintenance

Add --agent claude-code, codex, cursor or universal to choose which agent gets it (Claude Code by default).

Upstream installer — not verified by SourceWeft

The open-source skills installer fetches the same pinned commit, but does not check the files against the hashes SourceWeft recorded.

K6 Trend Analysis

grafana

Analyze Grafana Cloud k6 test run trends over time. Detects slow metric drift (e.g., P95 latency creeping up while still passing thresholds), computes headroom to thresholds, flags anomalies, and recommends threshold tightening. Use when the user asks about test performance trends, wants to know if metrics are degrading, asks whether thresholds should be tightened, or wants a health check across recent runs for a specific test. Trigger on phrases like "how is my test trending", "is P95 getting worse", "check for performance regression", "should I tighten thresholds", "are my tests degrading", "show me trends for test X", "analyze my k6 test runs", or "is my test getting slower". Also trigger when a user asks to check all tests in a project -- run this skill once per test and synthesize.
