What problem does it solve?

Fixing bugs without tests leads to regressions and unreliable software. This skill enforces a test-driven approach where a failing test is written first to prove the bug exists, then a minimal code change is implemented to make the test pass.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Write a failing test that reproduces the exact bug to establish a verifiable failure.
  • Implement the smallest possible fix that makes the test pass, preserving existing behavior.
  • Document the bug and reproduction steps in the test to guard against regressions and support hermeticity.

Quick Start

Begin by writing a failing test that reproduces the bug, then implement the minimal change to make the test pass.
