Turns a finished debug session into permanent regression tests. Use right after a bug fix is verified or committed: after a post-fix regression trace comes back clean, after a trace-based debug workflow passes its final gate, or when the user says 'write tests for that fix', 'capture that as a test', 'add a regression test', or 'make sure that doesn't happen again'. The reproduction, root cause and fix are all in context now and are lost once the session ends, so capture them while fresh.…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Debug to Test Capture Every completed debug session contains exactly the information needed to write a good test: a reproduction case, a root cause, and a verified fix. This skill turns that into a permanent regression guard before the debug context evaporates. A bug that was worth debugging will recur without a test, because nothing else remembers why the code looks the way it does. ## When This Runs After a debug session completes, specifically when: - A post-fix regression trace returns a clean verdict - Your debug workflow's final verification gate passes - A debug workflow marks an issue resolved - Any bug fix is committed If you just finished debugging and haven't run this, the debug session is not complete. ## Step 1: Extract the test signal from the debug session Read back through the debug work and pull out: 1. **The trigger**: what user action or system state caused the bug? This becomes the arrange phase. 2. **The root cause**: what was actually wrong? This tells you what the test should assert against. 3. **The divergence point**: where did actual behavior differ from expected? This becomes the assertion. …

How to install
mdr add the-artificer-of-ciphers-llc/skills-from-the-artificer/debug-test-capture@sha256:ba60e5abe4b1303bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.69bca3f, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
