Migrates .NET test projects from VSTest to Microsoft.Testing.Platform (MTP). Use when user asks to "migrate to MTP", "switch from VSTest", "enable Microsoft.Testing.Platform", "use MTP runner", set OutputType=Exe only for test projects in Directory.Build.props, or mentions EnableMSTestRunner, EnableNUnitRunner, or UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner. USE FOR: MTP behavioral differences vs VSTest (exit code 8, zero tests discovered, --ignore-exit-code, TESTINGPLATFORM_EXITCODE_IGNORE); centralizing MTP properties and OutputType=Exe on test projects via MSBuildProjectName, not IsTestProject. Supports MSTest, NUnit, xUnit.net v2 (via YTest.MTP.XUnit2), and xUnit.net v3. Covers runner enablement, CLI argument and filter translation (--filter-class/--filter-trait/--filter-query), global.json config, CI/CD updates, and extension packages. DO NOT USE FOR: migrating between test frameworks (MSTest/xUnit/NUnit), xUnit.net v2 to v3 API migration, MSTest version upgrades, TFM upgrades, or UWP/WinUI

Add missing test coverage for your local code changes by generating new test files (covers uncommitted and untracked changes, or the latest commit if everything is committed). Use when you want write tests for new logic or increase test coverage.

Migrate MSTest v1/v2 projects to MSTest v3, and fix v1/v2-to-v3 breaking changes that surface after the packages are already at 3.x. USE FOR: removing v1 Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework assembly references; moving MSTest.TestFramework/TestAdapter 1.x-2.x to 3.x, the MSTest metapackage, or MSTest.Sdk; tests that broke after a 2.x-to-3.x bump -- CS0411/CS1503 on Assert.AreEqual/AreNotEqual/AreSame once the object overloads became generic, and DataRow strict type matching (1L vs 1) that builds with MSTEST0014 but fails at run time; .testsettings/LegacySettings to .runsettings (DeploymentEnabled, per-test MSTest TestTimeout); v3 timeout behavior; TFMs v3 dropped (net5.0, .NET Fx below 4.6.2, netstandard1.0). Applies even when the project already references MSTest 3.x, if a v1/v2-era setting or error remains. Keeps the current runner. DO NOT USE FOR: MSTest v4 (use migrate-mstest-v3-to-v4 next), clean v3 projects with no v1/v2 leftovers, other test frameworks, or VSTes

Fix build errors and breaking changes after upgrading MSTest v3 to v4, or plan a complete v3-to-v4 migration. Use when user says "upgrade to MSTest v4", "MSTest 4 migration", "MSTest v4 breaking changes", "tests don't compile after upgrading MSTest 3.x to 4.x", or hits CS0507, CS0103, CS1061, CS1615 after updating MSTest packages to 4.x. USE FOR: Execute to ExecuteAsync, CallerInfo ctor on TestMethodAttribute, sealed custom attributes, ClassCleanupBehavior removal, TestContext.Properties Contains to ContainsKey, Assert.ThrowsException to ThrowsExactly, Assert.IsInstanceOfType out param removal, ExpectedExceptionAttribute removal, TestTimeout enum removal, [TestMethod("name")] to DisplayName syntax, TreatDiscoveryWarningsAsErrors, TestContext.TestName in ClassInitialize, MSTest.Sdk MTP changes, dropped TFMs (net6.0/net7.0 to net8.0+). DO NOT USE FOR: MSTest v1/v2 to v3, or errors left from a 2.x-to-3.x upgrade (use migrate-mstest-v1v2-to-v3 first); test framework conversions; general .N

Migrates .NET test projects from xUnit.net v2 to xUnit.net v3. USE FOR: upgrading xunit to xunit.v3. DO NOT USE FOR: migrating between test frameworks (MSTest/NUnit to xUnit.net), migrating from VSTest to Microsoft.Testing.Platform (use migrate-vstest-to-mtp). For xUnit v3 MTP filter syntax (--filter-class, --filter-trait, --filter-query), also load migrate-vstest-to-mtp.

Guide for creating effective skills. This command should be used when users want to create a new skill (or update an existing skill) that extends Claude's capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, or tool integrations. Use when creating new skills, editing existing skills, or verifying skills work before deployment - applies TDD to process documentation by testing with subagents before writing, iterating until bulletproof against rationalization
