System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you efficiently pinpoint the exact commit that introduced a bug or regression in your codebase using Git's bisect functionality, even with flaky tests or build issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Bisect Scripting: Generate and run test scripts compatible with git bisect run.
  • Flaky Test Handling: Implement retry logic to ensure reliable test results during bisection.
  • Build Failure Management: Gracefully skip commits that fail to build using the standard 125 exit code.
  • Use Case: You've noticed a bug in your application, but you're not sure when it was introduced. You have a known good commit and a known bad commit. This Skill helps you create a script that git bisect run can use to automatically test commits in between and identify the culprit commit.

Quick Start

Use the bisect-aware-instrumentation skill to create a test script for git bisect that handles build failures and flaky tests.
