Chalk Labs
Need help deploying test-deep?
Chalk Labs sets up agents like this inside real teams: connected to your tools, tested on your data, with a human in the loop where it matters.
Install
Works with Claude Code. Read the repository before you give any tool access to your data.
npx agentmarket install skill/sd0xdev-test-deep
Asks which of your tools to add it to (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Claude Desktop) and shows the change first. See https://agentmart.dev/cli.
Get the weekly diff
The weekly diff: one email a week with new agent tools, notable updates and grade changes, plus security alerts for tools you follow. Double opt-in, one-click unsubscribe.

What's inside
- Skill name
test-deep- Description
- Context-aware test orchestration. Use when: smart test selection, failure triage, progressive test ladder, test failure analysis. Not for: writing tests (use post-dev-test), reviewing tests (use codex-test-review), generating tests (use codex-test-gen), full manual run (use verify). Output: test results + triage report + fixer actions.

# Test Deep — Context-Aware Test Orchestration
## Supplementary Agent
When test failures occur, dispatch background triage:
Agent({
description: "Analyze test failure root cause and suggest fixes",
subagent_type: "verify-app",
prompt: `Analyze the following test failure:
<failure output>
Identify root cause and suggest minimal fix.`
})
## Trigger
- Keywords: context-aware testing, smart test, test orchestration, test triage, test failure analysis, test deep, run relevant tests
## When NOT to Use
| Scenario | Alternative |
|----------|------------|
| Writing new tests | `/post-dev-test` |
| Reviewing test coverage | `/codex-test-review` |
| Generating unit tests | `/codex-test-gen` |
| Full manual test run | `/verify` |
| Code review | `/codex-review-fast` |
## Prohibited Actions
```
❌ git add | git commit | git push — per @rules/git-workflow.md
```
This skill runs tests and may apply safe fixers, but does **not** commit. To commit, offer the menu per `rules/git-workflow.md` § Proactive Offer — a commit option on any real branch, a push option only where `review-state.js offer` allows one — and invoke `/smart-commit --execute` on selection; never print the command for the user to copy.

## Phase 0: Test Selection
Map code changes to test targets. See `references/test-selection.md` for full strategy.
**Strategy priority**:
| Priority | Method | When |
|----------|--------|------|
| 1 | Git diff filename mapping | Default — map changed files to test files via Glob |
| 2 | Framework native | Jest `--changedSince`, Vitest `--changed` |
| 3 | Full suite fallback | Config change, no mapping, `--all` flag |
**Steps**:
1. Collect changed files: union of unstaged + staged + untracked (`--branch` uses merge-base)
2. Apply filename mapping rules to generate candidate test paths
3. Glob-confirm each candidate exists
4. Classify confirmed tests by layer (unit / integration / e2e)
**Full suite escalation triggers**: config file changed, CI/CD file changed, package dependency changed, no test files mapped, `--all` flag.
## Phase 1: Progressive Ladder
Execute tests layer-by-layer with fail-fast.
| Layer | Directory Pattern | Timeout | Fail Behavior |
|-------|------------------|---------|---------------|
| Unit | `test/unit/**`, `test/scripts/lib/**`, unclassified | 60s | Fail-fast → triage |
| Integration | `test/integration/**` | 300s | Fail-fast → triage |
| E2E | `test/e2e/**` | 600s | Enter triage |
**Fail-fast rule**: Unit fail → skip integration + e2e. Integration fail → skip e2e.
**Override**: `--no-fail-fast` disables this behavior (run all layers regardless).
**Layer detection**: Classify test files by directory prefix. Files not matching any integration/e2e pattern → treat as unit.
**Execution**: Run tests using project's configured test command (from `package.json` scripts or `CLAUDE.md`). Capture stdout/stderr and exit code.
## Phase 2: Failure Triage Pipeline
When failures occur, analyze and classify. See `references/triage-pipeline.md` for full spec.
### Step 1: Output Parser
Extract structured tags from test output (no classification — just structure):
| Tag | Description |
|-----|-------------|
| `exit_code` | Process exit code |
| `error_signatures[]` | Regex-matched error patterns |
| `failing_tests[]` | Failed test names |
| `failing_files[]` | Failed test file paths |
| `env_hints[]` | Environment clues (testnet, localhost, etc.) |
| `stack_depth` | Stack trace line count |From sd0xdev/sd0x-harness, MIT.
