cige-stale-execution-repair

cige-stale-execution-repair is a skill for Claude Code from vivekkrishna/agentic-validation-skills. It costs 56 tokens per session (878 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A repair procedure for CIGE test runs, where CIGE appears to represent a system that checks product workflows against intended requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Update failed execution steps when the product requirement still holds, or strengthen checks when a confirmed false positive means the evidence for success was unreliable.
Why use it?
It separates two problems that can look similar: test steps becoming outdated and a test incorrectly reporting success. This prevents repairing the wrong part.

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

cige-stale-execution-repair 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 today.

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.

CIGE: StaleExecutionAgent

Invoked by cige-failure-classification in two situations: Outdated Test Logic (Mode A — repair Execution[]) and a confirmed False Positive (Mode B — strengthen Guardrails). These are different repairs with different targets; do not conflate them.

When to invoke

  • Mode A: Execution steps fail mid-flow (element not found, endpoint 404, workflow step no longer exists), and specRef confirms the intended outcome is still a valid product requirement.
  • Mode B: A run reported pass, but cige-failure-classification confirmed it was a false positive — the evidence backing the pass was weak or gameable, not that the steps were wrong.

If neither condition is confirmed, do not use this skill.


Mode A — Repair Execution

  1. Read Intent (the goal to preserve) and Guardrails (constraints that apply during repair).
  2. Fetch specRef to confirm the intended outcome is still a stated product requirement.
  3. Inspect the current system state (live UI, API schema, current workflow) to understand what changed.
  4. Propose new Execution[] steps that achieve Intent within Guardrails.
  5. Dry-run the proposed steps to verify Intent can still be confirmed.
  6. Surface the proposed diff to a human for approval — do not commit without sign-off.

Escalation rule: If no execution path can confirm Intent within the existing Guardrails, stop — this may be a misclassified Product Defect. Escalate to cige-product-defect-escalation rather than forcing a repair that technically passes.

Mode B — Strengthen Guardrails (the narrow exception)

A false positive means the steps "worked," but the pass shouldn't have counted — the test's evidence bar was too weak to catch an invalid end-state (e.g. it accepted UI success text without checking the backend record it implies). The fix targets Guardrails, not Execution.

  1. Read the false-positive report from cige-failure-classification: what state was accepted as a pass, and why it shouldn't have been.
  2. Propose an additive guardrail or evidence rule that would have caught this specific gap (e.g. "require backend order-service confirmation, not UI text alone").
  3. Never remove, weaken, or relax an existing guardrail as part of this repair — this mode only adds constraints, it never loosens them.
  4. Replay the test with the proposed guardrail in an isolated environment to confirm it still allows the true-positive path to pass and correctly blocks the false-positive path.
  5. Surface the proposed diff (old Guardrails, new Guardrails, the false positive it addresses) to a human for approval — do not commit without sign-off.

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.

cige-stale-execution-repair is a skill published in the GitHub repository vivekkrishna/agentic-validation-skills (1 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 878 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
