smell-check
From the author
Runs a smell-first audit on a user-chosen path set: measures structure metrics, applies a named size profile, and reports code smells and test smells with evidence strength. Use for smell audit, code smell scan, whole-repo audit, tech debt scan, test smell check, maintainability audit, or duplication and nesting checks. Do not use for PR review, merge advice, implementing fixes, writing new features, or lint/format-only passes.

- coding-standardsshinpr/ai-coding-project-boilerplateDetects code smells, anti-patterns, and readability issues. Use when implementing features, reviewing code, or refactoring.Engineering★ 234
- test-smell-detectiondotnet/skillsAudits existing tests in any language using formal, research-backed test smell names and the testsmells.org 19-smell academic taxonomy. Use when the caller asks for an academic or citable test-smell review, named smell categories, or a formal severity-ranked smell assessment. Covers Assertion Roulette, Conditional Test Logic, Mystery Guest, Eager Test, Sleepy Test, Unknown Test, Sensitive Equality, and the rest of the catalog across .NET, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Go, Ruby, Rust, Swift, Kotlin, PowerShell, and C++. DO NOT USE FOR a quick pragmatic test review (use test-anti-patterns), writing or running tests, framework migration, coverage, or assertion-diversity metrics.Testing★ 5.7K
- run-smoke-teststamdogood/builder-essential-skillsInspect an unfamiliar repository, interpret a broad Markdown user journey at runtime, operate the real product through its supported web, API, CLI, desktop, or mobile surface, and produce an auditable pass, fail, or blocked judgment with screenshots, logs, recordings, and a step timeline when available. Use when asked to run smoke tests, validate an end-to-end user journey, dogfood a product, test a release candidate, or execute a non-deterministic workflow that may include authentication or human checkpoints. Do not use as a substitute for deterministic unit, integration, or scenario tests.Testing★ 225
- ai-qa-reviewpetrkindlmann/qa-skillsReview EXISTING test code for quality, smells, and testability issues. Detects test smells across six dimensions — readability, reliability, diagnostic value, design, AI-generated, and coverage — analyzes testability of application code, and backs the qualitative smells with mutation testing. Use when: "review my tests," "test quality audit," "test smells," "testability analysis," "are these tests any good." Not for: generating new tests — use `ai-test-generation`. Not for: testing AI features in your product — use `ai-system-testing`. Related: unit-testing, shift-left-testing, coverage-analysis, ai-test-generation.Testing★ 208
- audit-testsdzhng/skillsAudit whether tests earn their maintenance cost and which suite owns each contract. Use when pruning redundant tests, investigating implementation coupling or test-only production hooks, reviewing the value of proposed coverage, or auditing an entire subsystem. Use write-tests to implement the resulting test changes.Testing★ 1.4K
- test-quality-analysissecondsky/claude-skillsDetect test smells, overmocking, flaky tests, and coverage issues. Analyze test effectiveness, maintainability, and reliability. Use when reviewing tests or improving test quality.Testing★ 236
