This Skill ensures your code changes do not inadvertently alter the behavior of your application by characterizing current behavior and creating tests that lock down the current state.
Run the safety-net skill on the target code area to generate tests and lock down the current behavior.

Characterization testing captures and locks down the current observable behavior of your code into a test suite, preventing regressions by ensuring future refactoring does not introduce unexpected changes.
You generate a test suite by running the safety-net skill on your target code area, which characterizes the current behavior and creates regression guards for safe code changes.
You need to lock down code behavior before refactoring or fixing low-coverage code areas to protect against regressions and confirm your changes do not alter existing application behavior.
Yes, you can use this approach to improve code stability by generating tests that capture the current state of your code, providing a regression guard for future modifications and refactoring.
Characterization tests lock down current observable behavior exactly as it exists, meaning they will capture and validate existing bugs alongside intended functionality unless explicitly corrected during later refactoring.
