Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00040 | $0.01053 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00526 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00211 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00105 |
Grade A, and why
test-gap-analysis 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 3d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 98 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Purpose
Intent (anchor): Coordinate a two-phase test-gap workflow — audit first, then optionally fill — by sequencing the atomic
test-gap-auditandtest-gap-fillskills behind an approval gate. Always: run the read-only audit before generating anything; require explicit approval of which gaps to fill; keep audit and fill as separate atomic steps. Never: generate tests before the gap report is approved, or modify production code without asking.
Shared policy: Follow
instructions/coordination.instructions.mdfor precedence, invocation, delegation, and handoffs. Applyinstructions/workflow.instructions.mdfor proportional work and verification.
This skill is a thin coordinator. It owns the retroactive coverage flow and the gate between auditing and generating tests, but delegates the detailed procedures to two atomic skills:
test-gap-audit— read-only discovery of untested paths, weak assertions, and missing edge cases, with a risk-prioritized gap report.test-gap-fill— generation of concrete, runnable tests for approved gaps, following project conventions.
For single-phase needs, invoke those skills directly. Use this coordinator when you want the full audit → approval → fill flow in one place.
Difference from
test-strategy:test-strategyis forward-looking (plans tests for new work). This flow is retroactive — it audits existing code that may have shipped without adequate coverage.
When to use this skill
Use this skill whenever:
- A bug shipped that "should have been caught by tests" — retroactively fill the gap.
- Before a major refactoring — ensure the safety net exists before you lean on it.
- During maintenance cycles — periodic test health check.
- The user asks to "find untested code", "improve test coverage", or "audit tests for [module]".
- After a production incident — identify what tests would have prevented it.
Do not use this skill for:
- Planning tests for new features — use
test-strategyinstead. - Running or debugging existing tests — do that directly.
- Code review — use
git-commit-reviewor thecode-revieweragent. - A pure gap report (no intent to write tests) — invoke
test-gap-auditdirectly.
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.

test-gap-analysis is a skill published in the GitHub repository NickPolyder/NP.CoPilot.Config (2 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 1,053 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
