Test-First-For-Bugs-And-Regression

Test-First-For-Bugs-And-Regression is a cursor rule for Cursor from Fullive-AI/Anima. It costs 332 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A testing rule for bug fixes and work where existing behaviour must not regress.

In plain words
What is it for?
It guides developers to reproduce failures with focused tests, add regression coverage where practical, apply the fix, and rerun relevant checks.
Why use it?
It helps ensure a fix addresses the underlying problem and does not silently break again later.

About the project

Anima is an open-source local-network runtime that gives household hardware an AI layer for sensing environments, remembering preferences, planning actions, and controlling devices through adapters. It is intended for intelligent devices such as lights, air conditioners, humidifiers, air purifiers, and speakers, with a dashboard, REST API, and CLI for control and extension. The catalogue entries are skills, rules, and instructions for working with Anima.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Test-First-For-Bugs-And-Regression scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

For bug fixes and regression-sensitive work, use tests to reproduce, protect, and verify behavior whenever practical.

Core rule

Do not just patch the symptom. First understand the failing behavior, then protect against its return.

Preferred workflow for bug fixes

  1. identify the failing behavior clearly
  2. locate or create the most targeted test that captures it
  3. confirm the failure when feasible
  4. implement the fix
  5. re-run the test
  6. run adjacent relevant checks to guard against regressions

Testing principles

  • prefer targeted tests over broad blind runs at first
  • add regression coverage for real bugs when practical
  • test the root behavior, not just incidental implementation details
  • include edge cases if they are directly related to the failure
  • keep tests readable and aligned with project conventions

When adding a new test

Prefer tests that:

  • fail before the fix
  • pass after the fix
  • clearly describe the intended behavior
  • are narrow enough to diagnose future regressions quickly

If a test cannot be added immediately

Then still:

  • document the failure mode clearly in your reasoning
  • validate the fix using the strongest available check
  • add a test if the codebase supports it and the scope allows it

Regression mindset

After fixing a bug, also consider:

  • nearby code paths using the same logic
  • boundary conditions
  • serialization or interface effects
  • consumer-facing side effects
  • whether similar bugs could exist in sibling flows

Completion rule

A bug fix is stronger when it leaves behind proof that the bug will be caught if it returns.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
