# human_test() — Real Human Feedback for AI Products

AI agents cannot judge human perception, emotion, or usability. This skill lets you call real humans to test any product URL and get structured feedback back.

## What it does

1. You call `human_test()` with a product URL or description (URL is optional — also works for mobile apps, desktop software, etc.)
2. AI auto-generates a structured test plan
3. Real human testers claim the task on the web platform
4. Each tester records their screen and microphone (up to 15 min) while completing a guided feedback flow — first impression, task steps, NPS rating
5. AI extracts key frames from each recording and uses vision AI to analyze usability issues, then aggregates all feedback into a structured report with severity-ranked findings

## Setup

### Option A: Hosted (zero setup)

Use the hosted version at **https://human-test.work** — no installation needed. Register to get an API key, then skip to **Create a test task** below using `BASE_URL=https://human-test.work`.

### Option B: Self-hosted (auto-install)

human_test() can run locally. Before creating a task, check if the server is reachable:

```bash
curl -s BASE_URL/api/config
```

If the server is not running, install and start it:

```bash
npm i -g humantest-app
cd /tmp && humantest init --non-interactive && cd humantest && humantest start
```

This auto-detects AI API keys from your environment (`ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, `OPENAI_API_KEY`, `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY`, or `GEMINI_API_KEY`), creates a local SQLite database, builds the app, and starts it on port 3000.

A default admin user is created automatically — no registration needed.

**Set `BASE_URL`**: Ask the user once for their preferred base URL. Default: `http://localhost:3000`

## Quick start

### Create a test task

```bash
curl -X POST BASE_URL/api/skill/human-test \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "url": "https://your-product.com",
    "focus": "Test the onboarding flow",
    "maxTesters": 5,...
