/test — Run and Analyze Tests

Tests are the specification. A green suite means the software does what was specified; a red one means either the spec changed or the code broke — both demand action.

For TDD itself (writing tests first, RED/GREEN/REFACTOR), use superpowers:test-driven-development. This skill is about running and analyzing.

See advanced.md for property-based, mutation, contract, and snapshot testing plus flaky-test management.
