# confirm failures are causally linked to the task before reporting rejection

## Trigger

- (no explicit trigger metadata; cluster derived from category/tags)

## Required Procedure

- confirm failures are causally linked to the task before reporting rejection
- separate pre-existing failures from task-introduced regressions in test reports

## Forbidden Shortcuts

- (none recorded)

## Delegation Template

When delegating a task affected by this skill, include:

```
SKILLS: file:.opencode/skills/generated/confirm-failures-are-causally-linked-to-the-task-before-reportin/SKILL.md
```

## Reviewer Checks

- Verify each required action above appears in the diff.

## Test Engineer Checks

- Add or update tests covering the trigger condition and the forbidden shortcut.

## Source Knowledge IDs

- 820286b2-e40c-40f9-95d0-5ae2191c904f — When test_engineer reports failures, verify whether they are pre-existing and unrelated to the task scope before rejecting coder work — unrelated failures should not block task completion.
