How do I troubleshoot a failed test result?

You can follow the built-in debug workflow: run the failing command manually to see the full JSON output, check stderr for API errors, and verify the source code in the helper directory.

Do I need a GitHub token to run these tests?

A valid GITHUB_PAT (Personal Access Token) is required for Tier B (Read-Only) and Tier C (Mutation) tests to authenticate and interact with the GitHub API.

Can I run specific test categories instead of the whole suite?

Yes, the skill allows you to run specific tiers (a, b, or c) individually using the run-all.sh script to save time and API rate limits.

What is the difference between Tier A and Tier C tests?

Tier A tests infrastructure and CLI logic without network calls using dry-run flags, while Tier C performs real mutation actions like creating and deleting issues or PRs in a test repository.

Will these tests clutter my production repositories?

Mutation tests are designed to run against a dedicated scratch repository (defaulting to L3DigitalNet/testing) and include cleanup routines to minimize artifacts.

Security & Testing

Validates and verifies the github-repo-manager plugin installation through comprehensive infrastructure, read-only, and mutation test tiers.

This skill provides a specialized testing environment for the GitHub Repo Manager plugin, enabling Claude to execute and interpret a multi-tiered test suite. It covers everything from basic CLI infrastructure and dry-run validation to real-world API interactions involving repository metadata, issue lifecycles, and pull request mutations. By automating the 'fix-test-fix' loop, it helps developers ensure their GitHub automation tools are correctly configured, authenticated, and functioning as expected across all 14 command groups.

Key Features

01Full lifecycle testing for Issues, PRs, Labels, and Releases in dedicated test repos

02Configurable test environments via GITHUB_PAT and TEST_REPO variables

03Three-tier testing architecture covering infrastructure, read-only API, and mutation tests

04Detailed diagnostic reporting with status symbols and JSON error extraction

05Automated dry-run verification to validate CLI logic without making network calls

063 GitHub stars
