testing.reach_coverage

testing.reach_coverage is a skill for Claude Code from causify-ai/helpers. It costs 13 tokens per session (602 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A unit-testing workflow that measures which parts of selected code are covered by tests, then adds tests for uncovered paths. Unit tests check small pieces of code in isolation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect coverage reports, plan missing tests, and implement tests for functions or files.
Why use it?
It helps reveal untested code and gives a structured way to improve coverage without changing the code's behavior.

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

testing.reach_coverage 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 1mo 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.

Goal

  • Given the passed function, file, or files <FILES>, increase unit test coverage from the corresponding files <TEST_FILES> to approach 100 percent using a plan-then-implement approach

Workflow

Establish Current Coverage

  • Identify the test files corresponding to the target function, file, files <TEST_FILES> using the rules

    • E.g.,
      helpers/hllm_cli.py -> helpers/test/test_hllm_cli.py
      
  • Print the files to test

    Target files: <FILES>
    Test files: <TEST_FILES>
    
  • Run the following command and record the results:

    # Using invoke (preferred):
    > i run_coverage --suite fast --generate-html-report
    # Or directly with pytest inside Docker:
    > pytest --cov=<PKG> --cov-report=term-missing --cov-report=html <TEST_FILE>
    
  • Summarize which lines and branches are not covered

Design a Testing Plan

  • Analyze uncovered code paths and behaviors
  • Propose a clear testing plan that:
    • Tests functions modularly before testing interactions
    • Prioritizes end-to-end and user-visible behavior over incidental implementation details
    • Avoids testing assertions, defensive checks, or invalid inputs unless they are critical to correctness
  • Explicitly map each uncovered area to one or more proposed tests

Specify Tests Without Implementation

  • Define test classes and test method names
  • For each proposed test:
    • Describe the input data
    • Describe the expected output or observable behavior
  • Do not write executable test code at this stage

Implement After Approval

  • Wait for user confirmation or feedback on the testing plan
  • After approval:
    • Implement the tests according to the approved plan
    • Re-run coverage and verify that coverage for the target function is near 100 percent
    • Report final coverage results and remaining gaps, if any

Important Rules

  • Do not implement tests before the plan is approved
  • Do not proceed if instructions or requirements are ambiguous
  • Always adhere to the formatting and style guides referenced above
  • Focus on meaningful behavior and correctness rather than superficial coverage
  • All tests and code must strictly follow:
    • .claude/skills/coding.rules.md for any Python code
    • .claude/skills/testing.rules.md for tests
  • If any part of the task is unclear or underspecified, stop and ask for clarification before proceeding

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.

testing.reach_coverage is a skill published in the GitHub repository causify-ai/helpers (150 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 602 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
