Amaury Levé 77154137e8 dotnet-test: make code-testing agent tools Claude Code-compatible + add cross-host portability check (#856)
* dotnet-test: make code-testing agent tools declarations Claude Code-compatible

PR #847 added `tools: ["agent", "skill", "read", "search", "edit", "execute"]`
to the code-testing-* agents to enable VS Code / Copilot CLI subagent fan-out.
Those lowercase aliases map to real tools in VS Code and the Copilot CLI, but
Claude Code matches `tools:` against its own vocabulary (Task, Skill, Read,
Glob, Grep, Edit, Write, Bash). None of the aliases matched, so when these
agents are loaded into Claude Code via --plugin-dir and selected with
`claude --agent`, the agent was granted ZERO tools. A tool-less model asked
to generate tests emits a textual <tool_call> block and exits after one turn,
producing no file changes.

Append the Claude Code tool names to each agent's `tools:` list so the same
declaration works across all three runtimes (each honors the names it knows and
ignores the foreign ones):

- Orchestrators (generator, implementer): add Task, Skill, Read, Glob, Grep,
  Edit, Write, Bash (Task is the Claude Code equivalent of the `agent`
  fan-out tool).
- Workers (researcher, planner, builder, tester, fixer, linter): add Skill,
  Read, Glob, Grep, Edit, Write, Bash.

* skill-validator: complete built-in tools + add cross-host tool portability check

Two related follow-ups to the agent tools fix:

1. Address the skill-check review feedback. The validator's BuiltInTools set was
   missing three legitimate host tool spellings that are not case-insensitive
   matches of existing entries, so they were flagged as non-built-in:
   - "write"   — Claude Code file-creation tool (Copilot CLI / VS Code: "create")
   - "agent"   — Copilot CLI / VS Code subagent fan-out tool (Claude Code: "task")
   - "execute" — Copilot CLI / VS Code run-command tool (Claude Code: "bash")
   "agent" and "execute" were already flagged before this branch (introduced by
   the fan-out PR); adding them to BuiltInTools clears the pre-existing warnings.

2. Add a cross-host tool portability check (CheckAgentToolPortability) so an
   agent that declares a capability for only one host is flagged. Tool names are
   matched case-sensitively (hosts resolve tools by exact spelling), so an agent
   that lists e.g. only "edit" (Copilot / VS Code) without "Edit"/"Write"
   (Claude Code) is reported as working on one host and silently tool-less on the
   other. Findings are advisory (do not fail CI) and allowlistable via
   "agent-tool-portability:AGENT:capability". Wired into the agents loop in
   CheckCommand and covered by unit tests.

Also make the one existing single-host agent (optimizing-dotnet-performance)
portable by adding its Claude Code tool spellings, so the new check reports a
clean tree.

Petr Pokorny 06dd46e5f1 Enable VS Code subagent fan-out for the dotnet-test code-testing agents (#847)
* Add VS Code subagent metadata to dotnet-test code-testing agents

Enable the code-testing-* Research-Plan-Implement pipeline to fan out as
subagents in VS Code while keeping the GitHub Copilot CLI working.

Frontmatter (VS Code "coordinator/worker" pattern; portable tool aliases that
map in both VS Code and the CLI):
- code-testing-generator: tools: [agent, read, search, edit, execute] + an
  agents: list (researcher, planner, implementer, builder, tester, fixer,
  linter); softened the three runSubagent({ agent, prompt }) blocks to
  tool-agnostic delegation prose.
- code-testing-implementer: tools: [agent, read, search, edit, execute] +
  agents: (builder, tester, fixer, linter).
- Leaf agents (researcher/planner/builder/tester/fixer/linter):
  tools: [read, search, edit, execute].

Why explicit tools (not ["*"]): VS Code has no all-tools wildcard for 	ools:
and a subagent's 	ools: overrides its inherited set, so ["*"] matched nothing
and stripped subagents of file tools (they ran without read/edit/search). The
CLI treats ["*"] as all-tools, so this was VS-Code-specific. The portable
aliases agent/read/search/edit/execute map to real tools in both environments;
agents: is ignored by the CLI.

README: document the VS Code chat.subagents.allowInvocationsFromSubagents
setting (off by default) needed for the nested implementer->builder/tester/
fixer/linter layer to fan out on large scopes; the CLI has no such gate.

Validated end to end: VS Code shows researcher->planner->implementer fanning out
with real file I/O (no "subagents lack file tools" warning); CLI fan-out intact
with skills still loading and tests passing. An all-tools baseline used only
tools within this enumerated set, confirming no CLI capability is restricted.

* Include skill tool in code-testing agent tool allowlists

Address PR review: the explicit `tools:` allowlists omitted the `skill`
tool, but every code-testing-* agent's prompt instructs calling skills
(e.g. `code-testing-extensions` for per-language guidance, `test-gap-analysis`,
`assertion-quality`). Because `tools:` is an override, omitting `skill` can
prevent the agents from loading those skills in environments that gate skill
invocation by the allowlist.

Add `skill` to all eight agents:
- orchestrators (generator, implementer): [agent, skill, read, search, edit, execute]
- workers (researcher/planner/builder/tester/fixer/linter): [skill, read, search, edit, execute]

Re-verified in the Copilot CLI: full fan-out (researcher -> planner ->
implementer/tester), the `code-testing-extensions` skill is invoked, and the
generated tests pass.

Amaury Levé 0c98ce6bd9 Direct strategy must still run the Step 7 pre-completion gate (#793)
* Direct strategy must still run the Step 7 pre-completion gate

The Direct strategy correctly skips the research/plan/implement sub-agents
for small single-file tasks, but the wording let agents also skip the
Step 7 pre-completion gate (test-gap-analysis + assertion-quality +
scenario coverage) — treating a single-file task that enumerates specific
behaviors as 'trivially small'.

This is the dominant failure mode observed on behavior-enumerating tasks:
the agent writes one test file directly and finishes with no
assertion-strength or scenario-coverage check, producing weak assertions
(mutation survivors) and missing required edge/negative cases.

Clarify in both the generator Step 2 strategy table and the
code-testing-agent SKILL.md that Direct trades away only the sub-agents,
never the gate, and that a request naming a specific symbol or enumerating
scenarios is not 'trivially small' and must run the gate.

* Address review: align Direct gate trigger with Step 7 threshold; clarify gate in SKILL.md

- Step 2 Direct cell no longer introduces a separate 'names a specific
  symbol' gate trigger that contradicted Step 7. It now defers to Step 7's
  own threshold (>=5 tests, or any enumerated behaviors/scenarios).
- SKILL.md now names what/where the gate is: the generator's Step 7
  (test-gap-analysis + assertion-quality).

Amaury Levé 5d717dbdd1 Add prompt-scenario coverage check to code-testing-generator gate (#789)
* Add prompt-scenario coverage check to code-testing-generator gate

The pre-completion gate already verifies assertion strength (pseudo-mutation
and assertion-depth checks), but two recurring failure modes still slip
through when the prompt enumerates specific behaviors:

- Testing an *adjacent* function/helper instead of the exact feature named
  in the objective, leaving the requested behavior uncovered.
- Covering only a single representative case when the scenario wording
  implies multiple variations or pins a condition to a specific position
  or structure.

Add a third gate item that maps each enumerated scenario to a dedicated
test, requires targeting the exact named function (preferring the canonical
existing test file), and requires honoring range/positional qualifiers
literally.

* Address review: genericize example, fix gate-count consistency

- Remove benchmark-specific symbol names from the target-the-named-function
  bullet to avoid overfitting; phrase it generically.
- Fix the gate intro that said 'The two skills below' now that there are
  three numbered items (the third is a prompt self-review, not a skill).
- Update Step 8 and Rule 11 so re-running the gate includes the new
  prompt-scenario coverage check, not just test-gap-analysis + assertion-quality.

Amaury Levé f389af86c7 code-testing-generator: mandatory pre-completion self-review gate (#768)
* code-testing-generator: mandatory pre-completion self-review gate

Replaces the prose `Verify tests are implementation-specific'' bullet
in Step 7 of the code-testing-generator agent with a mandatory
pre-completion self-review gate that invokes two existing plugin
skills:

1. `test-gap-analysis'' (pseudo-mutation check) against the source
   files tested and the produced test files
2. `assertion-quality'' (trivial/tautological assertion check)
   against the produced test files

Both skills already ship in plugins/dotnet-test; this PR only wires
them into the generator's workflow as a mandatory gate before
declaring a run complete.

The two skills' `When to Use'' sections are extended to list
`called by code-testing-generator as a pre-completion self-review
step'' as a recognised use case so the model does not refuse the
invocation. The skill descriptions are unchanged (frontmatter is
already at the 1024-char limit).

Rule 11 of the generator agent is updated to list the gate alongside
final build, final test, and coverage-gap review as mandatory for ALL
strategies including Direct.

A matching rubric item is added to the ContosoUniversity scenario in
the code-testing-agent eval (yaml and vally) so the LLM judge can
verify the gate was actually invoked on the trajectory.

Amaury Levé 754011b5ee Add workspace-integrity guardrail to code-testing agents (#773)
The code-testing-generator/implementer agents could treat an unusual or
scaffolded workspace (e.g. a gutted repo with an injected synthetic module)
as corruption and "repair" it with git checkout/restore/reset/clean or rm,
restoring deleted tracked files and testing the wrong code.

- Replace generator Rule 5 ("Clean git first - stash changes") with an
  explicit "Treat the workspace as delivered" rule, and add a "Never mutate
  version control" rule. Output must be purely additive test files.
- Add a no-revert/no-clean invariant to the implementer's edit boundaries.
- Add a 'workspace integrity' eval to the code-testing-agent suite
  (eval.yaml + eval.vally.yaml). The fixture looks gutted: a metricsd project
  whose real core/io modules are committed at HEAD but deleted from the
  working tree, leaving only a synthetic 'synthstr' decoy. A git restore would
  resurrect the deleted sentinel files; graders fail if they reappear and
  require passing pytest tests for the module as delivered.

Amaury Levé a98fb44e52 code-testing-agent: pin down behavior in generated tests (#767)
Adds a new `Write Tests That Pin Down Behavior'' section to
`unit-test-generation.prompt.md'' covering five universal
test-craft principles:

1. Mutation thinking - each assertion would fail under a plausible bug
2. Property intersections - test combinations, not only coordinate axes
3. Behavior radius - assert on at least one secondary observable
4. Fixture realism - never set the parameter under test to a degenerate value
5. Quick self-review before declaring a test method done

Mirrors the same depth requirements in
`code-testing-implementer.agent.md'' Step 4 as a cross-language
invariant block alongside the existing `Edit boundaries'' rules.

Extends the existing `code-testing-agent'' eval rubrics (yaml and
vally) with one or two depth-oriented bullets per scenario:

* ContosoUniversity: minimal IsNotNull-only assertions + secondary
  observable check on controller actions
* python-flask-tasks: minimal `is not None''-only assertions + at
  least one combined-property TaskService validation test
* typescript-vitest-cart: minimal `toBeDefined''/`toBeTruthy''-only
  assertions + at least one intersection test (discount + tax +
  shipping together)

Amaury Levé d9c1e7a801 code-testing-agent: mention find-untested-sources for C# discovery (#734)
* code-testing-agent: mention find-untested-sources for C# discovery

Adds a conditional pointer (gated on 'when available') to the
find-untested-sources skill in two places:

- SKILL.md Step 3 (Research Phase): high-level note for C# / .NET
  multi-file scopes — prefer the helper over manual find/grep/glob walks.

- code-testing-researcher.agent.md Section 7 (Discover Preexisting
  Tests): directive instruction telling the researcher to invoke the
  helper before manually pairing source <-> test files, and to use its
  source_to_tests / untested output to fill the research document.

Both callouts are phrased as 'when available', so installations
without the find-untested-sources skill continue to work via manual
discovery. Adds no behavior for non-C# repos.

Context: in a 5x136-instance internal experiment on the msbench .NET
test bench, adding equivalent pointers to the routed code-testing-agent
yielded a 15.67% input-token reduction at neutral pass rate — the
model trusted the documented pairing heuristics and skipped its own
discovery walk. The helper itself was not invoked in those runs (the
Copilot CLI router did not auto-load the sibling skill), so the
measured win comes from the doc text causing the model to short-circuit
its manual exploration, not from the helper executing.

Depends on dotnet/skills#733 (which adds the find-untested-sources
skill itself).

* code-testing-agent eval: grade find-untested-sources usage on C# scenario

PR #734 adds a doc pointer steering the researcher toward the
`find-untested-sources` skill on .NET / C# multi-file tasks. The
existing ContosoUniversity scenario is the natural fit: it's the only
C# multi-file scenario in this eval, and the new pointer is .NET-
scoped.

Add one rubric item to that scenario (in both eval.vally.yaml and the
legacy eval.yaml) asking the grader to verify the researcher actually
leveraged the helper — either by citing its `source_to_tests` /
`untested` JSON output in `.testagent/research.md`, or by executing
`scripts/Find-UntestedSources.cs` — instead of falling back to manual
`find` / `grep` / `glob` walks. Gated on `when available in the
workspace` to match the SKILL.md wording, so installs without
find-untested-sources are not penalized.

Amaury Levé 0a387fcdfe code-testing-implementer: add mandatory harness-discovery check (#757)
* code-testing-implementer: add mandatory harness-discovery check

Generic CI/benchmark verifiers run the framework's default discovery from the repo root. Tests that pass via a scoped command (e.g. 'dotnet test MyProject.Tests.csproj', 'bundle exec rspec subgem/spec', 'Invoke-Pester -Path ./tools') but are invisible to the harness count as 0 generated tests.

Repeatedly observed in msbench cta-nightly runs:

- new C# test project never 'dotnet sln add'ed (ocelot)

- Pester tests placed under custom directories invisible to default Invoke-Pester (homebrew, ruby/ruby)

- RSpec specs placed in a sub-gem's spec/ dir invisible from repo root (fastlane)

Changes:

- code-testing-implementer: capture baseline test count in Step 2, new Step 7 'Verify Harness Discovery (MANDATORY)' with concrete failure examples, HARNESS_DISCOVERY line in report template, reminder after Step 3 to revisit registration if Step 4 creates a new project.

- code-testing-researcher: instruct to record BOTH scoped test command and harness-equivalent discovery command in .testagent/research.md.

- dotnet.md: strengthen 'Registering a new test project' heading to MANDATORY when dotnet new was used; add 'Harness Discovery Check' section with 'dotnet test <solution> --list-tests' from repo root.

- powershell.md: add 'Harness Discovery Check' section with default-config Invoke-Pester from repo root.

- ruby.md: add gem-monorepo trap guidance (fastlane, ruby/ruby) in Test Placement Contract; add 'Harness Discovery Check' section with 'bundle exec rspec --dry-run' from repo root.

* Address review feedback on harness-discovery check

- dotnet.md: replace stale `Step 8 cleanup` reference with the actual Step 3 (`Register Test Project with Build System`).
- dotnet.md: demote `Harness Discovery Check` to `###` so it nests under the parent `## .csproj / .sln Handling` section alongside `### Registering...`.
- dotnet.md: replace `\s\{4\}` (non-POSIX) in the grep regex with 4 literal spaces so the count works under BRE.
- ruby.md: group the rake/rails fallback with `{ ...; } | wc -l` so the pipe applies to both branches of `||`.

Amaury Levé 7fc6d472c3 Add migrate-xunit-to-mstest skill (#718)
* Add migrate-xunit-to-mstest skill

Adds a skill to migrate .NET test projects from xUnit.net (v2 or v3) to

MSTest v4. Covers package replacement, attribute/assertion/fixture/lifecycle

translation, ITestOutputHelper -> TestContext, [Trait] -> [TestCategory]/

[TestProperty], and xUnit v3 TestContext.Current.CancellationToken.

Front-loads parallelization handling because xUnit parallelizes test classes

by default while MSTest serializes — the single largest source of post-

migration regressions. Step 11 enumerates three explicit choices and how to

translate CollectionBehavior/MaxParallelThreads/[Collection] settings.

Preserves the existing test platform (VSTest stays VSTest; MTP stays MTP)

by default — bundling a platform migration would violate the

test-migration agent's 'never mix migration steps' rule.

- plugins/dotnet-test/skills/migrate-xunit-to-mstest/SKILL.md (workflow)

- plugins/dotnet-test/skills/migrate-xunit-to-mstest/references/mapping-cheatsheet.md

- tests/dotnet-test/migrate-xunit-to-mstest/eval.yaml (12 scenarios)

- tests/dotnet-test/migrate-xunit-to-mstest/eval.vally.yaml (parity with sibling skill)

- plugins/dotnet-test/README.md (table entry)

- Step 1.5 'Custom DataAttribute' bullet pointed to Step 6 (assertions);

  custom DataAttribute mapping lives in Step 5 (data-driven tests).

- Step 7 lifecycle table 'Constructor' row pointed to Step 8 for

  ITestOutputHelper; ITestOutputHelper conversion is in Step 9 (output).

- Commit-strategy callout said 'after Step 5 (asserts fixed)' and 'after

  Step 9 (fixtures/lifecycle rewritten)'; asserts are in Step 6 and

  fixtures/lifecycle complete after Step 8.

* Map [assembly: Xunit.Trait] to [assembly: TestCategory]/[TestProperty]

Both TestCategoryAttribute and TestPropertyAttribute target Assembly,

Class, and Method, so an xUnit [assembly: Trait] does not need to be

demoted to per-class/per-method MSTest attributes — assembly scope is

preserved 1:1.

- references/mapping-cheatsheet.md §8 now maps [assembly: Trait] to

  [assembly: TestCategory] / [assembly: TestProperty] instead of 'Remove'.

- SKILL.md Step 12 promoted to 'Convert' (was 'Remove'); the same mapping

  is documented inline.

- Notes after the Step 4 and §1 trait tables now disclose the assembly

  target so users do not assume class/method-only scope.

Addresses PR feedback from @Evangelink.

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

* Address second round of PR review feedback

From @Evangelink:

- [Ignore]/[Timeout] do NOT discover a test on their own — they are

  modifiers. SKILL.md Step 4 + cheatsheet §1 now show [Fact(Skip)] ->

  [TestMethod] + [Ignore(...)] (and same for [Timeout]). Eval scenario 9

  rubric updated to require both attributes.

- TestProperty IS filterable (was incorrectly described as 'metadata that

  does not need filter integration'). Notes after the trait tables in

  both SKILL.md and cheatsheet §1 now show both filter syntaxes.

- For environmental gates (OS-/CI-/arch-conditional), point at MSTest

  3.10+'s condition attributes ([OSCondition], [CICondition],

  [ArchitectureCondition], [NonParallelizableCondition]) as the preferred

  alternative to overloading [TestCategory] or scattering Assert.Inconclusive

  through test bodies. Strengthened in cheatsheet §3.9, SKILL.md Step 6,

  Step 10 SkippableFact row, and the Common Pitfalls table.

- TestDataRow<T> is also a supported MSTest data source (strongly typed

  with per-row DisplayName/Ignore metadata). Added to both SKILL.md Step 5

  and cheatsheet §2 with link to the docs.

- MSTest.Sdk + <UseVSTest>true</UseVSTest> pulls in Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk

  automatically — the manual PackageReference was incorrect. Removed it

  from both files (Step 2, Step 3 'common mistakes', and Common Pitfalls).

- Added the 'pin MSTest.Sdk in global.json msbuild-sdks' alternative as

  the recommended pattern for multi-project solutions.

- Xunit.Combinatorial -> Combinatorial.MSTest (Youssef1313 community port).

  Updated both SKILL.md Step 10 and cheatsheet §10.

From Copilot reviewer:

- MSTest.Sdk example in SKILL.md Step 2 Option B hardcoded

  <TargetFramework>net9.0</TargetFramework>, contradicting the

  preserve-TFM rule. Replaced with a placeholder + explicit comment.

* Improve xUnit-to-MSTest skill effectiveness based on eval feedback

Eval results on PR #718 showed regressions on three rubric items where the

agent did the migration correctly but did not COMMUNICATE the judgement-call

decisions, so the judge could not verify the choice was deliberate:

- ICollectionFixture scope decision (rubric: 'Explicitly explains the scope

  decision instead of silently widening' scored 1/5 because the agent said

  'Let me convert everything' with zero scope discussion). Step 8 now requires

  a templated explanation of (source scope, target scope, what is shared, what

  is serialized, why the rejected alternative was rejected) before applying.

- Parallelization 'MSTest default is serial' messaging (rubric scored 1.7/5

  because the agent only implicitly conveyed it). Step 11 Choice A now demands

  a templated sentence explaining that the [assembly: Parallelize] is REQUIRED

  to match xUnit, otherwise the suite silently regresses to serial.

- Response Guidelines now lists the three judgement-call decisions that MUST

  be communicated up-front: fixture scope, parallelization model, and the

  Throws/ThrowsExactly semantic flip.

Additional fixes from this round:

- Step 2: explicit guidance to default to Option A (MSTest metapackage) when

  the user says 'preserve VSTest', so the safer PackageReference path is

  picked over MSTest.Sdk + UseVSTest.

- Step 4: pulled the '[Ignore]/[Timeout] are modifiers, need [TestMethod]'

  callout out of a table footer into a visible note above the table.

- known-domains.txt: allowlist github.com/Youssef1313/Combinatorial.MSTest

  (referenced from SKILL.md Step 10 and cheatsheet §10 after the recent

  Xunit.Combinatorial -> Combinatorial.MSTest switch).

Validator: green (24 skills, 11 agents).

* Add concrete TestContext.Current.CancellationToken migration example

The CancellationToken scenario was failing/low-scoring because the skill only
contained a one-line mapping with no concrete example. The agent often missed
the requirement to:

  - Add constructor TestContext injection (even when ITestOutputHelper is absent)
  - Map Assert.False -> Assert.IsFalse alongside the rename
  - NOT fabricate a CancellationTokenSource as a replacement

Add a full xUnit v3 -> MSTest worked example next to the TestContext.Current
mapping (Step 9), and reinforce the CancellationTokenSource warning in the
cheatsheet. The example covers all 3 rubric points for the scenario.

* Address third round of PR review feedback

- Remove fictional MSTest condition attributes [ArchitectureCondition] and
  [NonParallelizableCondition] from SKILL.md and cheatsheet (only [OSCondition]
  and [CICondition] exist in MSTest 3.10+; for non-parallel intent use
  [DoNotParallelize], for architecture gating fall back to runtime
  Assert.Inconclusive). (Copilot)
- TestPropertyAttribute targets only [Class|Method] (no AttributeTargets.Assembly),
  so [assembly: TestProperty(...)] does not compile. Update the trait notes in
  SKILL.md Step 4, cheatsheet section 1, Step 12, and cheatsheet section 8 to
  collapse a non-category xUnit [assembly: Trait] to [assembly: TestCategory] or
  push it down to per-class [TestProperty]. (@Evangelink)
- Step 1 platform detection: stop inlining a buggy VSTest-vs-MTP matrix;
  delegate to the platform-detection skill. Note explicitly that
  <UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner> only affects 'dotnet run' and is not a
  reliable runner signal. (@Youssef1313)
- Step 2 Option A: add MTP code-coverage caveat -- Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk
  pulls VSTest's Microsoft.CodeCoverage transitively, which can interfere with
  MTP's collector. Prefer Option B (MSTest.Sdk without UseVSTest) for MTP
  projects. (@Youssef1313)
- Step 3: remove fictional MSBuild properties (<CaptureConsoleOutput>,
  <UseRoslynCompilers>); restate the bullet about xunit.runner.json -> Step 11
  port instead. Restate the <UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner> bullet to make
  clear it is not a runner switch. (@Youssef1313)

* Address Copilot review round 4

- mapping-cheatsheet.md (Assert.Contains predicate): the suggested fallback
  Assert.Contains(collection.First(x => predicate), collection) is buggy --
  First() throws InvalidOperationException on no-match (changing the failure
  mode), and feeding the result back into Assert.Contains is circular. Keep
  only the correct translation: Assert.IsTrue(collection.Any(x => predicate)).
- SKILL.md Step 4 / cheatsheet table: stop instructing 'mark every class
  sealed'. xUnit projects commonly use base/derived test classes (shared
  setup, generic base fixtures); mechanically sealing them would break
  compilation. Sealing is now framed as an optional follow-up handled by
  writing-mstest-tests, not part of the mechanical migration.

Amaury Levé 49a77a90bf code-testing-agent: add polyglot pipeline examples for Python/TypeScript/Go/Java (#708)
* code-testing-agent: add polyglot pipeline examples for Python/TypeScript/Go/Java

The code-testing-agent skill family is polyglot in description but in
practice biased toward .NET because dotnet-examples.md was the only
filled-in pipeline walkthrough. The four sub-agents that participate in
the Research-Plan-Implement pipeline (researcher, planner, implementer,
generator) all pointed to dotnet-examples.md whenever they suggested a
concrete example, which made it harder for the agent to produce
idiomatic non-.NET tests (e.g. in msbench top5-* benchmarks for
Python/Flask, TypeScript/Express).

This change

* adds four new example files mirroring dotnet-examples.md format
  (source → research → plan → generated test → fix cycle → final report):
  - python-examples.md (pytest, unittest.mock, Mock(spec=...), parametrize)
  - typescript-examples.md (Vitest with notes for Jest; it.each,
    async tests, fake timers, ESM/CJS fix cycle)
  - go-examples.md (standard testing package, table-driven subtests,
    hand-written fake repository, injected clock)
  - java-examples.md (JUnit 5 + Mockito on Maven, @ParameterizedTest +
    @CsvSource, Clock.fixed, Surefire fix cycles)
* updates code-testing-extensions/SKILL.md TOC to list the new files
  and clarifies usage instructions to read the matching <language>-
  examples.md alongside the base extension
* makes the "Concrete example" pointers in code-testing-generator,
  code-testing-implementer, code-testing-planner and
  code-testing-researcher agents language-agnostic (list all available
  example files instead of hard-coding dotnet-examples.md)
* expands code-testing-researcher project-structure detection list to
  cover more Python (tox.ini, noxfile.py, requirements*.txt, uv.lock,
  poetry.lock, pdm.lock), JS/TS (.mts/.cts/.jsx, vitest.config.*,
  jest.config.*), C++ (CMakeLists.txt, BUILD.bazel, meson.build),
  Java/Kotlin (pom.xml, build.gradle[.kts], wrappers), and other
  ecosystem files; expands the Identify-Language section accordingly
* extends the "Language-Specific Examples" section in
  code-testing-agent/SKILL.md to summarise each example file

Validated with: skill-validator check --plugin ./plugins/dotnet-test
(23 skills, 11 agents — all checks passed) and markdownlint-cli2.

* Address review feedback for #708

- go-examples.md: replace the hand-rolled `contains`/`stringIndex`
  helpers with `strings.Contains` from the standard library. The hand-rolled
  `contains` had subtly wrong semantics — `contains(""abc"", """")` returned
  `false` while `strings.Contains` returns `true` — and the helpers are
  unnecessary complexity for a code-generation example.
- go-examples.md: in the `go test -run` "wrong selection regex" sample fix
  cycle, quote the test name and use `single_item` (matching the underscore
  that the surrounding diagnosis text refers to) instead of the unquoted
  `single item` which the shell would parse as two separate CLI arguments.
- java-examples.md: the source-tree file list described `Invoice.java` as a
  `record` but the `InvoiceService.markAsPaid` example mutates the invoice
  via `setStatus(...)` and `setPaidDate(...)` — records are immutable, so
  the description was internally inconsistent. Re-describe it as a mutable
  POJO with explicit mutators to match the service code.

Amaury Levé 680292e04c Make dotnet-test analysis skills and auditor agent polyglot (#707)
* Make dotnet-test analysis skills and auditor agent polyglot

Five test analysis skills and the test-quality-auditor agent in
plugins/dotnet-test previously activated only on .NET MSTest/xUnit/NUnit/
TUnit cues, even though the underlying techniques (assertion diversity,
anti-pattern detection, pseudo-mutation gap analysis, academic smell
catalog, trait tagging) apply equally to other test frameworks.

This change makes them polyglot across .NET, Python (pytest/unittest),
TypeScript/JavaScript (Jest/Vitest/Mocha/node:test), Java (JUnit/TestNG),
Go, Ruby (RSpec/Minitest), Rust, Swift (XCTest/Swift Testing), Kotlin
(JUnit/Kotest), PowerShell (Pester), and C++ (GoogleTest/Catch2/doctest).

Changes
-------

* New reference skill `test-analysis-extensions` with per-language
  extension files (dotnet, python, typescript, java, go, ruby, rust,
  swift, kotlin, powershell, cpp). Each documents test markers,
  assertion APIs, sleep / time / random APIs, skip annotations,
  setup/teardown, mystery-guest indicators, integration markers, and
  tag-support capability for the corresponding framework.
* `assertion-quality`, `test-anti-patterns`, `test-gap-analysis`,
  `test-smell-detection`, `test-tagging` SKILL.md updated: frontmatter
  now lists all polyglot frameworks (keeping .NET trigger words for
  backward compat); bodies reference `test-analysis-extensions` and
  add per-language calibration (e.g., Go/Rust table-driven loops are
  idiomatic and not Conditional Test Logic; pytest bare `assert` is
  canonical; missing-await on async assertions is a new Critical smell).
* `test-quality-auditor` agent now runs language detection, gates
  .NET-only pipeline steps (coverage-analysis, CRAP, detect-static-
  dependencies, testability migration, experimental dotnet skills), and
  recommends native tooling for non-.NET projects via an explicit
  Capability Matrix.
* README updated to split sections by polyglot vs .NET-only.
* New polyglot eval scenarios added (Python/pytest, TS/Jest,
  Java/JUnit) alongside existing C# scenarios in
  `test-anti-patterns`, `assertion-quality`,
  `test-smell-detection`.

The .NET-only skills (writing-mstest-tests, migrate-*, coverage-analysis,
crap-score, detect-static-dependencies, run-tests, filter-syntax,
platform-detection, dotnet-test-frameworks, mtp-hot-reload, exp-*) are
unchanged and continue to activate only for .NET work.

Amaury Levé ac653c62e4 dotnet-test: add cross-language edit-boundary rules to code-testing-implementer (#689)
The code-testing-* agent family generates tests for 12 languages (not just
.NET). Until now, no instruction told the implementer to keep its changes
additive: it would routinely modify existing test files non-additively
(deleting/reformatting lines) or edit non-test production code to make
something easier to test. Both behaviors cause the change to be rejected
by:

- the msbench 'simple' test verifier (any 'dels > 0' on a test file, or
  any change to a non-test file, sets reward=0)
- most real-world test-quality gates, code-review policies, and CI

Add explicit cross-language rules in the implementer agent prompt:

1. Existing test files are append-only (no reformat/reorder/remove).
2. Do not modify non-test source files; surface untestable seams as
   follow-ups for the testability-migration agent.
3. Prefer new test files over edits to existing ones when equivalent.
4. Build-system manifests may be edited only for project/dependency
   registration.

Rule 6 in the Rules section now points at the Step 4 detail so the
implementer reads it on every phase.

Amaury Levé dde9f99cf0 dotnet-test: drop tools field from agents that declared it (#665)
The four agents (code-testing-generator, test-migration, testability-migration,
test-quality-auditor) were the only dotnet-test agents declaring a 'tools:'
list. Per Jan's suggestion on #660, drop the field so they inherit the runtime's
default tool surface (matching the convention used by every other agent in the
repo).

Amaury Levé 3d59e44c7e Fix coverage-analysis activation for plateau diagnosis prompts (#647)
* Fix coverage-analysis activation for plateau diagnosis prompts

coverage-analysis SKILL.md:
- Trim verbose implementation details (provider detection,
  ReportGenerator) that consumed description budget without
  aiding skill activation
- Add explicit USE FOR keywords: coverage stuck, coverage plateau,
  can't increase coverage, what's blocking coverage

code-testing-agent SKILL.md:
- Add 'diagnosing coverage plateaus or CRAP score computation
  (use coverage-analysis)' to DO NOT USE FOR boundary to prevent
  test-generation skill from intercepting diagnostic prompts

* Strengthen code-testing-agent activation; harden coverage-analysis isolated mode

Address eval regressions reported on PR #647 (run 25813728646):

1. code-testing-agent: `Generate tests for ContosoUniversity ASP.NET Core MVC app`
   was NOT ACTIVATED in plugin mode (detectedSkills=[], skillEventCount=0,
   invokedAgents=[]). The model bypassed the skill system entirely.

   - SKILL.md description: restructure to use the proven `Use when user says ...`
     pattern with quoted trigger phrases (matching the run-tests skill that
     consistently activates), make the link to the code-testing-generator
     sub-agent explicit, and tighten DO NOT USE FOR clauses.
   - eval prompt (eval.yaml + eval.vally.yaml): make the request
     pipeline-shaped (`project-wide, multi-file test generation task`,
     `scaffold a new test project`) so the model recognizes it as multi-step
     work that benefits from the orchestrated pipeline. Explicitly request
     coverlet.collector + a Cobertura XML run so rubric criterion 1
     (`high line coverage as reported by the Cobertura XML in TestResults/`)
     becomes achievable without overfitting.

2. code-testing-tester agent + code-testing-extensions/dotnet.md: open a
   scoped exception to the `skip coverage tools` rule. Default behavior
   stays the same, but when the user/harness explicitly asks for a
   Cobertura/XML coverage artifact, the agent may add coverlet.collector
   to the generated test csproj so the harness's coverage command produces
   output. The agent still does not run the coverage command itself.

3. coverage-analysis SKILL.md: add a `User-visible output is mandatory`
   guard at the top of the Workflow section. The latest eval showed isolated
   mode producing literally `(no output)` in 2 of 3 scenarios — the agent
   ran Compute-CrapScores.ps1 / Extract-MethodCoverage.ps1 / ReportGenerator
   in parallel, then the session ended without ever surfacing findings.
   The guard tells the agent to always return a partial summary instead of
   ending silent, and to deprioritize ReportGenerator HTML when budget is
   tight. (Plugin-mode quality is already strong: 4.3 / 4.3 / 5.0 — no
   regression risk there.)

Aggregate dotnet-test plugin description size: 14,925 chars (limit 15,000).
skill-validator check passes (22 skills, 11 agents, 1 plugin); markdownlint
passes for all 4 modified files.

* Restore MSTest modernization exclusion in code-testing-agent description

* Fix isolated-mode coverage-analysis: emit summary before optional ReportGenerator

The previous workflow encouraged the agent to run `dotnet tool install` for
ReportGenerator in parallel with the CRAP scoring scripts (Phase 2 "Steps
3 and 4 in parallel" + Phase 3 "Steps 5 and 6 in parallel"). In isolated
mode that pattern reliably crashed the session with "Failed to persist
session events: timeout while waiting for mutex to become available"
right after the scripts returned valid data, so the agent never produced
the user-facing summary.

Restructure the workflow into 5 phases:

- Phase 1 (Setup) - unchanged
- Phase 2 (Test execution) - skip when Cobertura XML already exists
- Phase 3 (Analysis) - run only the two PowerShell scripts, no RG
- Phase 4 (User-facing summary) - MANDATORY, must be the next assistant
  response after Phase 3, before any RG work; also save
  coverage-analysis.md as a secondary follow-up
- Phase 5 (ReportGenerator HTML/CSV) - strictly optional, post-summary,
  skipped by default for existing-Cobertura and plateau-diagnosis paths

Also update references/output-format.md so the Reports section marks RG
artifacts as "Not generated (optional - request HTML reports to enable)"
when Phase 5 has not run, and update references/guidelines.md so the
"show and open the markdown report" rule explicitly defers to the
user-facing assistant response.

Targets the isolated-mode regressions in PR #647 eval:
- Project-wide coverage with existing Cobertura: 1.0/5 -> expected 3+
- Coverage plateau diagnosis: 1.0/5 -> expected 3+
- Run coverage from scratch: 2.3/5 -> expected steady or up

Verified: skill-validator check --plugin ./plugins/dotnet-test passes;
markdownlint-cli2 clean on all 3 modified files.

* Address PR #647 review comments

1. Prerequisites: distinguish the from-scratch path (needs NuGet for the
   coverage-provider package install + optional internet for ReportGenerator)
   from the existing-Cobertura path (needs neither).

2. Add Step 2c "Discover or accept existing Cobertura XML" so the
   existing-data path actually has $coberturaFiles populated before
   Phase 3, instead of relying on Phase 2's discovery (which it
   skips). Also clarify Step 2's destructive Remove-Item only manages
   the skill-owned coverage-analysis/ subdirectory.

3. references/output-format.md: replace the unconditional
   "Reports saved to: <coverageDir>/reports/" line with one that
   always points at <coverageDir>/ (markdown summary + raw Cobertura)
   and only mentions reports/ if Phase 5 ran.

4. Have Compute-CrapScores.ps1 emit OVERALL_LINE_COVERAGE and
   OVERALL_BRANCH_COVERAGE from the Cobertura root attributes, and
   update Phase 4 to read those values directly from the script's
   output. The Phase 4 mandatory-summary rule no longer requires a
   separate XML parse before composing the response.

Verified: skill-validator check --plugin ./plugins/dotnet-test passes;
markdownlint-cli2 clean on all modified files; Compute-CrapScores.ps1
smoke-tested on a synthetic Cobertura XML (emits OVERALL_LINE_COVERAGE:75,
OVERALL_BRANCH_COVERAGE:50 alongside HOTSPOTS).

YuliiaKovalova e1e8568375 Revert "dotnet-test: add unit-under-test + behaviors quality cue to code-test…" (#651)
This reverts commit f1b09eba79.

YuliiaKovalova f1b09eba79 dotnet-test: add unit-under-test + behaviors quality cue to code-testing-generator (#646)
* CTA: invocation-only baseline (dispatch mechanics, no content rules)

Experiment branch to isolate the impact of "invoke prompted subagents
more often" from the impact of "make those subagents do richer work."
Same baseline as dev/ykovalova/cta-prompt-tuning (main = 66628b6), but
strips out every content/quality rule and keeps only the dispatch
plumbing.

Comparison branch: dev/ykovalova/cta-prompt-tuning (HEAD: bd530be)
which contains both the dispatch mechanics AND content/quality rules.

Files modified (3 vs 5 in cta-prompt-tuning):
- code-testing-generator.agent.md  +110 lines
- code-testing-implementer.agent.md +11 lines
- code-testing-fixer.agent.md      +1  line
- code-testing-researcher.agent.md  UNTOUCHED (baseline)
- code-testing-planner.agent.md     UNTOUCHED (baseline)

KEPT (invocation / dispatch mechanics):

Generator:
- Rule 1: every task() call MUST use agent_type "dotnet-test:code-testing-..."
  (without this, calls dispatch generic built-ins and never reach the
  named CTA agents)
- Rule 2: routing table -- which named agent for which job
- Rule 3: prefer one named-agent dispatch over many tool calls
- Rule 4: orchestrator MUST NOT edit/create test files itself
  (forces implementer dispatch)
- Rule 5: orchestrator MUST NOT run builds/tests via terminal
  (forces builder/tester dispatch)
- Rule 6: every run MUST dispatch the planner (no exceptions for "small"
  scope; Direct still goes through planner)
- Rule 7: every build/test failure MUST dispatch the fixer
- Step 1b: mandatory initial researcher dispatch (every strategy)
- Direct strategy rewritten: dispatches planner -> implementer -> builder
  -> tester -> fixer -> linter (was "Skip Steps 3-5, write tests inline")
- All Step 3/4/5/6/7/8/9 dispatches converted from runSubagent({agent:...})
  to task({ agent_type: "dotnet-test:code-testing-...", name:..., prompt:...})
- Step 9 validator dispatch (forces builder dispatch for cleanup)
- Steps 6/7 mandatory builder/tester dispatch wrapper

Implementer:
- Section 5: "you MUST dispatch fixer for build errors" + no-inline-edit
  block (forces fixer dispatch on build failures)
- Section 6: "you MUST dispatch fixer for test failures" + no-inline-edit
  block (forces fixer dispatch on test failures)
- Section 7: "Format Code (mandatory if a lint command exists)"
  (was "Optional"; mandatory firing of linter)
- Rule 6: never declare SUCCESS while build/tests fail (gates SUCCESS on
  fixer dispatch)
- Rule 7: no inline test-file edits between failed dispatch and fixer

Fixer:
- Frontmatter description widened to advertise handling of failing tests
  (without this, the orchestrator's routing logic does not select the
  fixer for test failures, so even Rule 7's mandate produces no firing
  -- this is the change that took fixer firing from 0.00/inst to 0.39/inst
  in earlier iterations)

DROPPED (content / quality rules -- in cta-prompt-tuning, NOT here):

Generator:
- Test-strength rules embedded in implementer dispatch prompt
- Test-design rules embedded in implementer dispatch prompt (OFAT,
  mutation self-check, never mock subject under test)
- File-location rules embedded in implementer dispatch prompt
- TARGET ENTITIES / PHASE CHECKLIST / TEST TRACEABILITY blocks in
  implementer dispatch prompt
- CHECKLIST format spec in planner dispatch prompt
- Step 9 validator's detailed cleanup classification

Implementer:
- Section 4b "Verify CHECKLIST coverage" pre-completion check
- Section 8 "CHECKLIST COVERAGE" report block
- "Honor the CHECKLIST" rule

Fixer:
- "Process -- Failing Tests" section (5-step diagnosis flow)
- All anti-weakening / anti-skipping rules
- "Re-derive expected from production source" guidance

Planner:
- CHECKLIST format ("one item per TARGET BEHAVIOR, Source/Variants/
  Expected mandatory")
- "Test name from research.md conventions" rule
- "At least 2 phases" rule

Researcher:
- Section 8 "Extract Local Test Naming & Style Conventions"
- TARGET ENTITIES / TARGET BEHAVIORS / TEST INFRASTRUCTURE structure
  in research.md
- Test naming pattern extraction

WHAT THE SUBAGENTS WILL ACTUALLY DO:

The researcher / planner / implementer / fixer all operate at baseline
behavior -- they receive the same prompts they receive in the upstream
"vanilla" runs. The only difference vs vanilla is that the orchestrator
ACTUALLY DISPATCHES THEM (where vanilla often inlines the work or skips
sub-agent dispatch entirely).

EXPECTED COMPARISON:

If quality on this branch is similar to or higher than dev/ykovalova/
cta-prompt-tuning (bd530be), then "more dispatches" is the dominant
quality lever and the content/quality rules in cta-prompt-tuning are
adding marginal or noise-level value.

If quality on this branch is materially lower than cta-prompt-tuning,
then the content/quality rules are doing the heavy lifting and the
dispatch mechanics alone are insufficient.

If quality on this branch matches or exceeds vanilla but trails
cta-prompt-tuning, then the dispatch mechanics provide a baseline lift
and the content rules add an incremental quality layer on top.

Rubber-duck check passed (validated dispatch-vs-content classification;
fixer frontmatter is routing metadata not a runtime gate; surviving
dispatch prompts contain no dangling references to removed CHECKLIST /
TARGET ENTITIES / TEST STRENGTH / naming-convention concepts).

* CTA: extract unit-under-test + behaviors quality cue (no caps)

* Address PR #646 review feedback

- Step 1b prompt: explicitly request unit-under-test (file:line) and behaviors
  so the verification gate rarely needs re-dispatch.
- Step 3: rename to 'Deep Research Phase', mark skipped for Direct strategy,
  and switch from overwriting research.md to extending it (no double-research).
- Step references: update '6-9' -> '6-10' and 'Step 9' -> 'Steps 9-10' in the
  strategy table and the All-strategies-MUST line, since reporting is Step 10.
- Step 6 builder prompt: drop '*.sln' glob (could expand to multiple args);
  use 'dotnet build --no-incremental' (auto-discovers .sln) per dotnet.md.
- Step 9: stop overloading the builder agent; perform diff/cleanup directly
  in the orchestrator (Rule 5 forbids inline build/test, not git/fs hygiene).
- Fixer agent: update mission text to cover failing tests and assertion
  correction (front-matter description already mentioned this; body now
  matches), with explicit no-Ignore/no-Skip/no-production-rewrite guardrails.

Amaury Levé 9f531203ec Promote 4 experimental test skills to dotnet-test plugin (#634)
Move assertion-quality, test-gap-analysis, test-smell-detection, and
test-tagging from dotnet-experimental to dotnet-test. These skills have
demonstrated sufficient eval coverage, unique value beyond baseline model
capabilities, and are already integrated into the test-quality-auditor
agent pipeline.

Changes:
- Move skills and tests, dropping the exp- prefix
- Update all cross-references in skill descriptions and routing tables
- Update test-quality-auditor agent and eval scenarios
- Update CODEOWNERS for the moved paths
- Delete duplicate exp-dotnet-test-frameworks (identical to dotnet-test-frameworks)
- Fix stale exp-dotnet-test-frameworks reference in exp-test-maintainability

Skills held back for further iteration:
- exp-mock-usage-analysis: baseline model scores 5/5 on key scenarios
- exp-test-maintainability: quality gains offset by token overhead

YuliiaKovalova 809d0b180c Improve test generation quality based on SWE Atlas benchmark analysis (#599)
* Improve test quality for benchmark performance

Based on SWE Atlas benchmark analysis (48.8% vanilla vs 19-34% CTA):

1. Default to Direct strategy for single-task requests — reduces
   multi-agent overhead that costs tokens without improving results

2. Run tests immediately in Direct strategy — catches assertion
   errors early instead of accumulating failures

3. Read source thoroughly before writing tests — trace actual logic
   and return values, not just function signatures

4. Quality over Quantity guidelines — cover stated requirements first,
   fewer focused tests beat many shallow ones

5. Verify tests are implementation-specific — tests that pass with
   an empty function body aren't testing anything useful

Add end-to-end input/output examples to anchor expected behavior for the

Changes:
- New extensions/dotnet-examples.md with .NET-specific examples: sample
  source code, research output, plan output, generated test file, fix
  cycle walkthroughs, and final report
- SKILL.md: replace one-liner examples with strategy selection table,
  pipeline walkthrough, and pointer to language-specific extensions
- Generator agent: add strategy decision examples and sample final report
- Researcher/Planner/Implementer agents: add references to extension
  examples for concrete output shapes

Architecture keeps core agents language-agnostic — all language-specific
examples live in the extensions/ folder.

Artur Spychaj 270ef910ec Ensure validation runs for all strategies including Direct (#570)
Harden the test generator agent to ensure final build validation, test
validation, and git commit always run — even when using the Direct
strategy for small requests.

Changes:
- Step 1: Mandate reading language-specific extensions (e.g., dotnet.md)
  before writing any code. The extension contains critical project
  registration (dotnet sln add) and build validation guidance.
- Step 2: Direct strategy now skips only Steps 3-5 (research, plan,
  implement sub-agents), NOT Steps 6-9. Added explicit note that
  Steps 6-9 are mandatory for ALL strategies.
- Step 6: Clarify full-solution build must use no --framework flag to
  catch multi-target framework issues (e.g., net472 errors).
- Step 7: Require fresh build for final test validation (no --no-build).
- New Step 9: Explicit git commit with verification that the diff is
  non-empty.
- New rules 9-11: Read extensions first, always validate+commit,
  preserve existing tests.

Motivated by MSBench investigation showing:
- Agent used Direct strategy and skipped final validation entirely
- Agent never read extensions/dotnet.md (missing dotnet sln add)
- Agent forgot to git commit (300 tests created, Changes +0 -0)
- Agent deleted pre-existing tests while adding new ones

The test-anti-patterns skill was not reliably activated in plugin mode
because sibling descriptions overlapped:

- test-quality-auditor agent: narrowed to multi-skill audit pipelines
  only, explicitly excluding single-file reviews
- writing-mstest-tests skill: removed 'review' and 'anti-patterns' from

Amaury Levé 7e6954f9a9 Add testability migration skills and agent for dotnet-test (#518)
* Add testability migration skills and agent for dotnet-test

Introduces three skills and one orchestrator agent to help developers
incrementally replace hard-to-test static dependencies with injectable
abstractions:

- detect-static-dependencies: scans C# code for DateTime.Now, File.*,
  Environment.*, HttpClient, Console.*, Process.* and ranks by frequency
- generate-testability-wrappers: generates wrapper interfaces or guides
  adoption of built-in abstractions (TimeProvider, IHttpClientFactory,
  System.IO.Abstractions)
- migrate-static-to-wrapper: mechanical codemod-style bulk replacement of
  static call sites with wrapper calls, scoped per project/namespace
- testability-migration agent: orchestrates the Detect-Generate-Migrate
  pipeline end-to-end

Includes eval.yaml tests and fixture projects for all three skills and
the agent.

* Fix activation, token overhead, and eval timeouts

- Expand skill descriptions with more trigger phrases for
  migrate-static-to-wrapper and generate-testability-wrappers
  to fix NOT ACTIVATED issues
- Collapse verbose replacement mapping tables and constructor
  examples to reduce token overhead (~30% fewer tokens)
- Increase generate-testability-wrappers eval timeouts from
  120s to 240s to prevent timeout-impacted scoring
- Soften detect-static-dependencies scenario 2 rubric to
  reduce run-to-run variance in plugin mode
- Increase migrate-static-to-wrapper non-activation timeout
