Runs the SAP ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC) end-to-end as a quality gate: builds an SCI Object Set scoped to the target object(s), creates an ATC Run Series bound to that set, polls the ATC Run Monitor until the run completes, then reads the Priority 1 / Priority 2 / Priority 3 finding

How it fires

How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

  Runs the SAP ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC) end-to-end as a quality gate:
  builds an SCI Object Set scoped to the target object(s), creates an
  ATC Run Series bound to that set, polls the ATC Run Monitor until the
  run completes, then reads the Priority 1 / Priority 2 / Priority 3
  finding counts from the Manage Results screen and (best-effort)
  downloads the result text file. Applies the customer brief's
  MAX_PRIORITY threshold to decide pass / fail.
  Replaces the legacy SCI-results-tree implementation that lacked a
  Priority column. Per-stage VBS references are recorded against the
  S/4HANA 1909 ATC layout — re-record on first failure with
  /sap-gui-probe --record if your release uses different tree node IDs / grid
  column IDs.
  Prerequisites: Active SAP GUI session (use /sap-login first).

SAP ATC Quality Gate Skill

You drive the proper SAP ATC pipeline — Object Set → Run Series → Run Monitor → Manage Results — and apply a priority-based gate. The four stages each have their own VBS reference; SKILL.md orchestrates them with a polling loop in the middle.

Step 0 — Resolve Work Directory

**Resolve `work_dir` via the env-aware helper** — do NOT take `work_dir` from a direct `settings.json` read (that ignores the `SAPDEV_AI_WORK_DIR` env var and `userconfig.json`). Use the `WORK_DIR=` value printed by:

powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command ". '<SAP_DEV_CORE_SHARED_DIR>\scripts\sap_settings_lib.ps1'; . '<SAP_DEV_CORE_SHARED_DIR>\scripts\sap_connection_lib.ps1'; Write-Output ('WORK_DIR=' + (Get-SapWorkDir)); Write-Output ('RUN_TEMP=' + (Get-SapRunTemp))"
