What it does

Use when orchestrating QE agents, understanding PACTS principles, configuring the AQE v3 fleet, or leveraging AI agents as force multipliers for quality work.

Agentic Quality Engineering

<default_to_action> When implementing agentic QE or coordinating agents:

  1. SPAWN appropriate agent(s) for the task using Task tool with agent type
  2. CONFIGURE agent coordination (hierarchical/mesh/sequential)
  3. EXECUTE with PACTS principles: Proactive analysis, Autonomous operation, Collaborative feedback, Targeted risk focus, Structured governance (observability and explainability of agent behavior)
  4. VALIDATE results through quality gates before deployment
  5. LEARN from outcomes - store patterns in aqe/learning/* namespace

Quick Agent Selection:

  • Test generation needed → qe-test-architect
  • Coverage gaps → qe-coverage-specialist
  • Quality decision → qe-quality-gate
  • Security scan → qe-security-scanner
  • Performance test → qe-performance-tester
  • Full pipeline → qe-fleet-commander

Critical Success Factors:

  • Agents amplify human expertise, not replace it
  • Human-in-the-loop for critical decisions
  • Measure: bugs caught, time saved, coverage improved, and how often agent claims survive verification
  • Done means committed, tested, and CI-validated with evidence attached, not "reported as complete" </default_to_action>

Quick Reference Card

When to Use

  • Designing autonomous testing systems
  • Scaling QE with intelligent agents
  • Implementing multi-agent coordination
  • Building CI/CD quality pipelines
