Identifies and prioritizes the highest-value test coverage gaps in a repository or workspace, then incrementally adds or strengthens tests using the local test stack and cleanly scoped subagent work when available. Use when a user says `improve test coverage`, `find weak tests`, `add missing test cases`, `run a recurring test-improvement pass`, or asks for a language-agnostic workflow to strengthen mocks, fixtures, and test structure without chasing raw coverage numbers. Do NOT use for…
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
# SWE Test Gap Hunt ## What This Skill Does Use this skill to run a bounded, evidence-led pass over a repository's tests. The job is to: - Detect the existing test and coverage workflow - Rank the best test-improvement opportunities - Add or strengthen a small number of high-value tests - Improve weak test structure when it materially improves confidence or speed - Leave a ranked backlog for the next incremental pass This skill is language agnostic. Reuse the repository's own tooling, file layout, and test conventions instead of forcing a new framework. ## When To Use Use this skill when the user wants to: - Improve coverage incrementally without broad rewrites - Find the most important uncovered or weakly tested code paths - Strengthen fragile, assertion-light, or over-mocked tests - Add missing edge, error, branch, or boundary cases - Run recurring or scheduled test-improvement passes over time ## Do Not Use Do not use this skill for: - First-time test framework selection or migration - Large production refactors done in the name of testability - Coverage-number campaigns with no quality bar …

How to install
mdr add ckorhonen/swe-skills/swe:test-gap-hunt@sha256:ba55d85f67b6721dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260404.e48a7cd, 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.
