name: Pytest Scaffolding Guidance
description: Use when working under tests/. Route test edits to pytesting guidance and never create or expand tests unless the user explicitly asks.
applyTo: 'tests/**'
---
When editing files under `tests/`, use `skill://pytesting/SKILL.md` as the primary guidance source for test scaffolding and pytest authoring decisions.
Hard rule:
- Do not create new test files, test cases, or test scaffolding unless the user explicitly asks for tests in the current request.
- If tests could help but were not requested, mention them as an optional next step instead of adding them.
Execution pattern:
1. Load `skill://pytesting/SKILL.md` first.
2. Inspect `skill://pytesting/_manifest` only when a supporting reference is needed.
3. Apply only the portions relevant to the file being edited.
4. Keep tests focused, deterministic, and aligned with repository conventions.
5. Include source-document links for any feature-level recommendation.
If task intent is ambiguous, ask one clarifying question before editing.
Be sure to also refer to the [testing page](../../src/personal_mcp/docs/testing.md) for design detail.
