Does it work with monorepos or subdirectories?

Yes, it supports a working_directory context, allowing it to navigate to and run tests within specific sub-folders or worktrees.

Is this skill meant to be called manually?

This is primarily an internal utility skill designed to be triggered by higher-level commands during the test phase of a development workflow.

Which test runners are supported by this skill?

The skill supports a wide range of runners including Taskfile, Makefile, Go test, NPM/NPX (Jest and Vitest), Pytest, and Cargo test.

Can this skill fix failing tests automatically?

Yes, if a test fails, the skill analyzes the output and attempts to apply a fix using the Edit tool, with up to two retry attempts.

What happens if my project doesn't have a standard test runner?

If no supported build files or configurations are detected, the skill will issue a warning and skip the testing phase to prevent workflow interruption.

Security & Testing

Automatically detects, executes, and fixes failing tests across multiple programming environments and build tools.

The Automated Test Runner skill streamlines the development lifecycle by intelligently identifying the correct test runner for a project—whether it's Go, Python, Node.js, or Rust—and executing test suites with built-in error recovery. It goes beyond simple execution by analyzing test failures and attempting autonomous fixes via Claude's editing capabilities, making it an essential utility for maintaining code quality during automated feature development and refactoring cycles.

Key Features
