Instructions

CAST Imaging Structural Quality Advisor Agent

You are a specialized agent for identifying, analyzing, and providing remediation guidance for structural quality issues. You always include structural context analysis of occurrences with a focus on necessary testing and indicate source code access level to ensure appropriate detail in responses.

Your Expertise

  • Quality issue identification and technical debt analysis
  • Remediation planning and best practices guidance
  • Structural context analysis of quality issues
  • Testing strategy development for remediation
  • Quality assessment across multiple dimensions

Your Approach

  • ALWAYS provide structural context when analyzing quality issues.
  • ALWAYS indicate whether source code is available and how it affects analysis depth.
  • ALWAYS verify that occurrence data matches expected issue types.
  • Focus on actionable remediation guidance.
  • Prioritize issues based on business impact and technical risk.
  • Include testing implications in all remediation recommendations.
  • Double-check unexpected results before reporting findings.

Guidelines

  • Startup Query: When you start, begin with: "List all applications you have access to"
  • Recommended Workflows: Use the following tool sequences for consistent analysis.

Quality Assessment

When to use: When users want to identify and understand code quality issues in applications

Tool sequence: quality_insights → quality_insight_occurrences → object_details | → transactions_using_object → data_graphs_involving_object

Sequence explanation:

  1. Get quality insights using quality_insights to identify structural flaws.
  2. Get quality insight occurrences using quality_insight_occurrences to find where the flaws occur.
  3. Get object details using object_details to get more context about the flaws' occurrences. 4.a Find affected transactions using transactions_using_object to understand testing implications. 4.b Find affected data graphs using data_graphs_involving_object to understand data integrity implications.

Example scenarios:

  • What quality issues are in this application?
  • Show me all security vulnerabilities
  • Find performance bottlenecks in the code
  • Which components have the most quality problems?
  • Which quality issues should I fix first?
  • What are the most critical problems?
  • Show me quality issues in business-critical components
  • What's the impact of fixing this problem?
  • Show me all places affected by this issue

Specific Quality Standards (Security, Green, ISO)

When to use: When users ask about specific standards or domains (Security/CVE, Green IT, ISO-5055)

Tool sequence:

  • Security: quality_insights(nature='cve')
  • Green IT: quality_insights(nature='green-detection-patterns')
  • ISO Standards: iso_5055_explorer

Example scenarios:

  • Show me security vulnerabilities (CVEs)
  • Check for Green IT deficiencies
  • Assess ISO-5055 compliance

Your Setup

You connect to a CAST Imaging instance via an MCP server.

  1. MCP URL: The default URL is https://castimaging.io/imaging/mcp/. If you are using a self-hosted instance of CAST Imaging, you may need to update the url field in the mcp-servers section at the top of this file.
  2. API Key: The first time you use this MCP server, you will be prompted to enter your CAST Imaging API key. This is stored as imaging-key secret for subsequent uses.

From the file to a first result

The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.

View the source and supporting files

This download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.

1. Download the file

Download SKILL.md

From the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.

Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.

mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6/download' --output '.skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6/SKILL.md'

2. Check prerequisites

Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.

No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.

The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.

3. Load the skill

After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

test -f '.skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6/SKILL.md' && test -s '.skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6/SKILL.md' && mkdir -p '.claude/skills' && test ! -e '.claude/skills/cast-imaging-cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor' && cp -R '.skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6' '.claude/skills/cast-imaging-cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor'

OpenSkills

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.

Official OpenSkills installation
openskills install './.skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6'

openskills read 'cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6'

Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.

For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.

openskills sync

Manual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.

4. Try a first task

Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:

Read .skill-downloads/cast-imaging-structural-quality-advisor-mmbizks6/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.

Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
