What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by av1155/houndarr in .agents/skills/test/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Parse the user's argument and run the appropriate test command. Argument forms: [full|file:<path>|keyword:<expr>|coverage] or a bare path.

Dispatch

  • No argument or full: run the full test suite.
.venv/bin/pytest
  • file:<path>: run a single test file with verbose output.
.venv/bin/pytest <path> -v
  • keyword:<expr>: run tests matching a keyword expression.
.venv/bin/pytest -k "<expr>" -v
  • coverage: run with coverage reporting.
.venv/bin/pytest --cov=houndarr --cov-report=term-missing
  • Bare path (no prefix): treat as a direct pytest path argument.
.venv/bin/pytest <path> -v

Reporting

Report pass/fail clearly. If there are failures, show the failing test names and short tracebacks. Do not recite pass counts unless there are failures to contextualize.
