The agent tried to add some new information about test suite layout into this skill - this was a mistake because the skill was specifically about getting full test coverage, not about general test suite formatting \u0026 structure.\n\nIn this situation it would be better to create/use a more general skill like `usethis-python-test` where we put general testing guidance, or to create/use a separate specialized skill like `usethis-python-test-suite-structure`.\n\nWe should _not_ shoe-horn into a \"somewhat\" relevant skill.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/nathanjmcdougall","@type":"Person","name":"nathanjmcdougall"},"datePublished":"2026-04-01T10:00:24.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/1705/usethis-python/issues/1705"}
