A field guide to the /proof-audit skill

AI Test Suite Health Audit

Test suites accumulate flake, slow tests, coverage gaps, and bad assertions. /proof-audit finds them and produces a fix-or-delete plan.

Proof · QA & Testing7 min readJanuary 17, 2026

Test suites decay quietly. The flake that fails 1 in 30 runs is ignored until it fails on a release. The test that takes 90 seconds when the rest take 2 dominates total run time. The coverage gap on the new payment path goes unnoticed until a regression ships. The assertion that passes on wrong behavior catches nothing. Each is small individually and cumulatively the suite the team no longer trusts.

The /proof-audit skill audits test suite health across four dimensions: flaky tests with root cause analysis, slow tests with explanations, coverage gaps on critical paths, and anti-patterns (testing implementation details, weak assertions). Output is a fix-or-delete plan ranked by impact.

What the audit covers

Flake: tests with intermittent failures, cause categorized (timing, isolation, external dependency). Slow: tests above the suite p95 with their reason (DB setup, network, missing parallelism). Coverage gaps: critical code paths without tests. Anti-patterns: tests that assert on implementation rather than behavior, mocks that hide bugs, weak assertions.

Tonone's /proof-audit skill audits test suite health for flake, slow tests, coverage gaps, and anti-patterns with a fix-or-delete plan.
