SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of converting a recorded AI agent run (an incident) into a repeatable regression test suite, ensuring that future changes do not break existing functionality.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Fixture Initialization: Creates deterministic fixtures from existing Gait run artifacts.
  • Regression Execution: Runs graders and checks against the initialized fixtures.
  • CI-Friendly Output: Generates outputs like JUnit XML for seamless integration into CI pipelines.
  • Use Case: After an AI agent causes an unexpected issue (an incident), use this skill to capture the exact state and inputs, then set up an automated test that will fail if the same issue recurs in the future.

Quick Start

Use the gait-incident-to-regression skill to initialize fixtures from run ID 'run_123' and execute the regression suite.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn an AI agent incident into a regression test?

Converting an incident into regression testing involves capturing the exact state and inputs of a failed AI agent run to create deterministic fixtures. These fixtures are then replayed to ensure the same unexpected issue does not recur in future changes.

How does deterministic replay work for incident triage?

Deterministic replay for incident triage works by taking a recorded Gait run identifier or runpack path and using it to initialize repeatable fixtures. This allows graders to consistently reproduce and analyze the exact failure conditions of an AI agent.

What's the best way to integrate AI agent failure analysis into CI/CD pipelines?

The best way to integrate AI agent failure analysis into CI/CD pipelines is by generating CI-friendly outputs like JUnit XML reports from regression tests. This allows existing CI infrastructure to automatically detect and flag recurring agent incidents.

Do I need the Gait CLI to create regression workflows from incidents?

Yes, you need the Gait CLI available in your environment to create regression workflows from incidents. The process also requires a valid run identifier or runpack path as input to properly initialize deterministic fixtures for replay.

When do I need to create deterministic fixtures for AI agents?

You need to create deterministic fixtures for AI agents immediately after an unexpected issue or incident occurs. This captures the exact run artifacts required to build a repeatable regression suite that prevents future regressions from going unnoticed.
