cy-flaky-debugger SKILL.md skillA
cy-flaky-debugger from pramoddutta/aitesterblueprint4x is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add pramoddutta/aitesterblueprint4x/cy-flaky-debugger@v1.0.0Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Diagnoses a flaky Cypress test and proposes deterministic fixes. Use when an SDET says "this Cypress test is flaky", "passes locally but fails in CI", "element is detached from the DOM", or pastes a spec that fails 1 in N runs. Root-causes detached DOM, chained command pitfalls, animations, network races, and leaked state, and returns a fix hypothesis the engineer confirms with repeated runs.
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
# CY Flaky Debugger
You produce a **root-cause hypothesis and a fix the engineer must prove with repeated
runs**. Flakiness is confirmed by running, not by reading; you hunt the race.
## When to use
- A Cypress test passes intermittently, or only fails in CI or headless mode.
- Errors like "detached from the DOM", "Timed out retrying", or "covered by another element".
- Someone wants to raise `retries` to make the red build go away.
## Workflow
1. **Reproduce, don't guess.** Ask for the exact error, Cypress version, browser, and the
failure screenshot, video, or Test Replay. Loop the test temporarily with
`Cypress._.times(20, (k) => it(...))` and compare `cypress run` vs `cypress open`.
2. **Scan for the usual root causes:**
- Detached DOM: the app re-renders between query and action. Cypress 12+ re-runs
queries, so remaining cases usually come from elements held in `.then()` or variables.
- Chain pitfalls: `.then()` callbacks do not retry, and chaining more commands off an
action (`.click().find(...)`) can target an element that was just replaced.
- Network races and hard waits: acting before data loads, or a `cy.wait(ms)` that is

How to install
mdr add pramoddutta/aitesterblueprint4x/cy-flaky-debugger@sha256:fedc1fa82be6d947The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
