fix-tests

Fix failing or broken tests by finding the root cause and correcting the source code (not the test). Use when tests fail, a suite is red, or the user asks to fix or repair tests or a CI test failure.

Quality

Content

92%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A well-structured, concise debugging workflow with explicit validation checkpoints, a hypothesis feedback loop, and a verification checklist. The only gap is the lack of concrete test-runner commands, which keeps actionability just below fully copy-paste ready.

Suggestions

Add one or two concrete test-runner command examples (e.g. `pytest -x path::test` / `npm test -- --grep`) to push actionability toward fully executable.

Optionally note how to scope a single test in common frameworks so 'Execute ONLY the failing test' has an executable analogue.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and efficient throughout: it assumes Claude knows how to run tests and read logs, with no padded explanations of concepts. Every numbered step earns its place.

5 / 5

Actionability

Concrete, actionable instruction ('Execute ONLY the failing test', 'Run the failing test after each change', 'Run the full test suite') with clear minimal-fix guidance. Not a 5 because, as an instruction-only skill, it gives no specific copy-paste test-runner commands (e.g. `pytest -x`), leaving the exact invocation implicit.

4 / 5

Workflow Clarity

A clear three-phase sequence with explicit validation checkpoints (run failing test first as baseline, re-run after each change, full-suite verify) and a feedback loop ('If the hypothesis is incorrect, create a new one') plus a closing checklist.

5 / 5

Progressive Disclosure

Under 50 lines with no need for external references and no bundle files present; the body is well-organized into phased sections plus a verification checklist, satisfying the simple-skill exception.

Description

82%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, third-person description that clearly states what the skill does and when to use it with concrete trigger phrases. Minor room to broaden trigger synonyms, but it is specific, complete, and low-conflict.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

It names the domain (failing tests) and one-to-two concrete actions ('finding the root cause and correcting the source code'), but the action set is not comprehensive. Not a 2 because actions are concrete rather than minimal/generic; not a 4 because it stops at two actions rather than listing several.

3 / 5

Completeness

It explicitly answers both what ('Fix failing or broken tests by finding the root cause and correcting the source code') and when ('Use when tests fail, a suite is red, or the user asks to fix or repair tests or a CI test failure') with concrete trigger phrases.

5 / 5

Trigger Term Quality

Strong natural keyword coverage ('tests fail', 'a suite is red', 'fix or repair tests', 'CI test failure') that users would actually say. Not a 5 because a few natural variations/synonyms are missing (e.g. 'flaky tests', 'broken tests' aside from 'failing or broken').

4 / 5

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

It occupies a clear niche (fixing tests by editing source, not the test) with distinct triggers and minimal overlap risk with other skills.
