name: smoke-test description: End-to-end smoke test skill for Nova. Guides through: 1) Pulling latest code, 2) Docker OR Local installation and deployment (user preference, default to Local if Docker network issues), 3) Service availability verification, 4) Health check, 5) Final test report. Use when the user says "run smoke test", "smoke test deployment", "verify installation", "test service availability", "end-to-end test", or similar.

Nova Smoke Test Skill

This skill guides the Agent through Nova's full end-to-end smoke test workflow, including code updates, deployment (supporting both Docker and local installation modes), service availability verification, and health checks.

Deployment Mode Selection

This skill supports two deployment modes:

• Local installation mode (recommended, especially when network issues occur) - Run all services directly on the local machine
• Docker mode - Run all services inside Docker containers

Selection strategy:

• If the user explicitly asks for Docker mode, use Docker
• If network issues occur (such as slow image pulls), automatically switch to local mode
• Default to local mode whenever possible

Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)

Phase 1: Code Update Check

1. Confirm current directory - Verify that the current working directory is the Nova project root
2. Check Git status - See whether there are uncommitted changes
3. Pull the latest code - Use git pull origin main to get the latest updates
4. Confirm code update - Verify that the latest code was pulled successfully

Phase 2: Deployment Mode Selection and Environment Check

Choose deployment mode:

• Ask for user preference, or choose automatically based on network conditions
• Default to local installation mode

Local mode environment check:

1. Check Node.js version - Requires 22+
2. Check pnpm - Package manager
3. Check uv - Python package manager
4. Check nginx - Reverse proxy
5. Check required ports - Confirm that ports 2026, 3000, and 8001 are not occupied

Docker mode environment check (if Docker is selected):

1. Check whether Docker is installed - Run docker --version
2. Check Docker daemon status - Run docker info
3. Check Docker Compose availability - Run docker compose version
4. Check required ports - Confirm that port 2026 is not occupied

Phase 3: Configuration Preparation

1. Check whether config.yaml exists
   • If it does not exist, run make config to generate it
   • If it already exists, check whether it needs an upgrade with make config-upgrade
2. Check the .env file
   • Verify that required environment variables are configured
   • Especially model API keys such as OPENAI_API_KEY

Phase 4: Deployment Execution

Local mode deployment:

1. Check dependencies - Run make check
2. Install dependencies - Run make install
3. (Optional) Pre-pull the sandbox image - If needed, run make setup-sandbox
4. Start services - Run make start (production mode)
5. Wait for startup - Give all services enough time to start completely (90-120 seconds recommended)

Docker mode deployment (if Docker is selected):

1. Initialize Docker environment - Run make docker-init
2. Start Docker services - Run make up (production mode)
3. Wait for startup - Give all containers enough time to start completely (60 seconds recommended)

Phase 5: Service Health Check

Local mode health check:

1. Check process status - Confirm that Gateway, Frontend, and Nginx processes are all running
2. Check frontend service - Visit http://localhost:2026 and verify that the page loads
3. Check API Gateway - Verify the http://localhost:2026/health endpoint
4. Check LangGraph-compatible API - Verify the /api/langgraph/* route exposed by Gateway
5. Frontend route smoke check - Run bash .agent/skills/smoke-test/scripts/frontend_check.sh to verify key routes under /workspace. The script auto-detects whether authentication is enabled and, if so, registers / logs in a smoke-test user so the real pages are verified rather than the login redirect.

Docker mode health check (when using Docker):

1. Check container status - Run docker ps and confirm that all containers are running
2. Check frontend service - Visit http://localhost:2026 and verify that the page loads
3. Check API Gateway - Verify the http://localhost:2026/health endpoint
4. Check LangGraph-compatible API - Verify the /api/langgraph/* route exposed by Gateway
5. Frontend route smoke check - Run bash .agent/skills/smoke-test/scripts/frontend_check.sh to verify key routes under /workspace. The script auto-detects whether authentication is enabled and, if so, registers / logs in a smoke-test user so the real pages are verified rather than the login redirect.

Optional Functional Verification

1. List available models - Verify that model configuration loads correctly
2. List available skills - Verify that the skill directory is mounted correctly
3. Simple chat test - Send a simple message to verify the end-to-end flow

Phase 6: Generate Test Report

1. Collect all test results - Summarize execution status for each phase
2. Record encountered issues - If anything fails, record the error details
3. Generate the final report - Use the template that matches the selected deployment mode to create the complete test report, including overall conclusion, detailed key test cases, and explicit frontend page / route results
4. Provide follow-up recommendations - Offer suggestions based on the test results

Execution Rules

• Follow the sequence - Execute strictly in the order described above
• Idempotency - Every step should be safe to repeat
• Error handling - If a step fails, stop and report the issue, then provide troubleshooting suggestions
• Detailed logging - Record the execution result and status of each step
• User confirmation - Ask for confirmation before potentially risky operations such as overwriting config
• Mode preference - Prefer local mode to avoid network-related issues
• Template requirement - The final report must use the matching template under templates/; do not output a free-form summary instead of the template-based report
• Report clarity - The execution summary must include the overall pass/fail conclusion plus per-case result explanations, and frontend smoke check results must be listed explicitly in the report
• Optional phase handling - If functional verification is not executed, do not present it as a separate skipped phase in the final report

Known Acceptable Warnings

The following warnings can appear during smoke testing and do not block a successful result:

• Feishu/Lark SSL errors in Gateway logs (certificate verification failure) can be ignored if that channel is not enabled
• Warnings in Gateway logs about missing methods in the custom checkpointer, such as adelete_for_runs or aprune, do not affect the core functionality
• The frontend_check.sh script automatically handles authentication. When auth is enabled it registers / logs in a smoke-test user ([e-mail] by default) to verify the real /workspace/* pages. The registration may produce a log entry from the auth provider, which is expected and harmless.

Key Tools

Use the following tools during execution:

1. bash - Run shell commands
2. present_file - Show generated reports and important files
3. task_tool - Organize complex steps with subtasks when needed
