What the skill teaches
An internal step of the cli-exercise skill in the GitHub CLI repository, reached through the entry skill rather than called directly, that runs command-line test cases exactly as the caller wrote them. It needs the preserved request, a checked contract, a ready preflight receipt and an approved scope of effects. Commands, inputs, order and checks are kept as given and mapped to the run contract's actions; the agent asks before inventing values and adds no extra tests or retries. Each case's preparation, run and validation happen in order with matched conditions, unexpected prompts pause the run, and results are marked passed, failed, blocked or observed before handing off to the evidence step.
Capabilities
- Run caller-written CLI test cases unchanged
- Ask before filling gaps in a case
- Judge each case as passed, failed, blocked or observed
