Need help deploying qa-intake?
Chalk Labs sets up agents like this inside real teams: connected to your tools, tested on your data, with a human in the loop where it matters.
Install
Works with Claude Code, Claude apps, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, VS Code, OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf. Read the repository before you give any tool access to your data.
npx agentmarket install skill/rafaie-qa-intake
Asks which of your tools to add it to (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Claude Desktop) and shows the change first. See https://agentmart.dev/cli.

SKILL.md (first lines)
1) Ground in repo context before asking questions. - Read `AGENTS.md`, `codex.toml` (if present), and relevant backlog/work item docs. - Do not ask for details already defined in repo docs; confirm defaults instead. 2) Restate the request in one sentence. 3) Ask only the minimum clarifying questions needed (typically 5–9). Do NOT implement yet. - Goal/outcome - Acceptance criteria / examples of success - Inputs/outputs (files, formats, APIs, datasets) - Constraints (time, tools, language, "must not") - Priority tradeoff (correctness vs speed vs cost) - Edge cases / non-goals (if relevant) 4) If the request touches a runnable script/CLI/module, ask smoke-contract questions. - Real entrypoint command (exact invocation) - Smoke fixture path(s) and what they represent - Pass/fail mode (schema + invariants only, or schema + invariants + golden) - Runtime constraints (time budget, network policy, required env vars) - Artifact locations (`artifacts/smoke/...`) 5) After the user answers, produce: ## Brief - Goal: - Context: - Acceptance criteria: - Constraints: - Inputs: - Outputs: - Risks/unknowns: - Verification & evidence: - Unit/integration coverage: - Smoke contract (entrypoint, fixture, pass/fail): - Required artifact paths: - Plan (3–7 steps): ## Next skill Recommend ONE of: - project-intake - backlog-builder - feature-slicer - feature-kickoff - spec-linter - implementation-phase - test-runner - smoke-test - ship-feature - docs-index-refresh - debug-loop - docs-update - adr-review - architecture-updater - release-prep ...and show the exact command the user should run next. Prefer the composite path (`feature-kickoff` -> `spec-linter` -> `implementation-phase` -> `ship-feature`) over routing directly to its internal skills.
