How to write, change, or review tests in this repo — the load-bearing rule is test real behavior, not source text. Also covers non-vacuity (red-on-old → green-on-new), covering enumerated sets member-by-member, fuzzing parser/Unicode logic, hostile-pre-state filesystem tests, and the c8 / kcov / mutation coverage floors. Activate whenever the user asks to write, add, fix, refactor, strengthen, or review tests ("write a test", "add tests", "test this", "regression test", "cover this", "why didn't this test catch it"), or when a coding task's last step is testing the change you just made.
