Purpose & Capability
The name/description (encouraging adding regression tests) matches the SKILL.md content. There are no unrelated environment variables, binaries, or installs requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md contains procedural guidance (reproduce bug as failing test, apply fix, keep test). It does not instruct the agent to read arbitrary files, call external endpoints, access credentials, or run specific system commands.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec and no code files; nothing is written to disk or downloaded.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested—requirements are minimal and appropriate for a documentation/guidance skill.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable. It does not request persistent presence or elevated privileges over other skills or system settings.
Assessment
This skill is simply best-practice guidance for adding tests when fixing bugs and appears safe to install. It's instruction-only (no code or downloads) and requests no credentials. Consider whether you want an agent to act on these instructions autonomously: if your agent has repository write or CI access, it could create/modify tests and code—so retain normal review and access controls. Otherwise, there are no disproportionate permissions or hidden behaviors to worry about.

Like a lobster shell, security has layers — review code before you run it.

bugfix-without-test

Fixing a bug without a test means (a) you don't know the fix actually works, and (b) there's nothing to stop the bug from coming back next refactor. A fix without a regression test is provisional at best.

Symptoms

  • Diff contains code changes but no test changes.
  • Existing tests still pass, but none of them would have failed under the original bug.
  • PR description describes a bug scenario that no test exercises.
  • The fix is a one-liner and no one will remember why it exists six months later.

What to do

  • Reproduce the bug as a failing test first. Run it. Confirm it fails for the right reason.
  • Apply the fix. Run the test again. Confirm it passes.
  • Keep the test in the suite. It becomes the regression guard.
  • If the bug is hard to test (timing, environment, flaky), say so explicitly and describe what manual verification was done. Don't silently skip.
  • For bugs discovered in production, add the test at the lowest level that reproduces the issue — unit if possible, integration if not.
