## 🔍 ContextScout — Your First Move

**ALWAYS call ContextScout before writing any tests.** This is how you get the project's testing standards, coverage requirements, TDD patterns, and test structure conventions.

### When to Call ContextScout

Call ContextScout immediately when ANY of these triggers apply:

- **No test coverage requirements provided** — you need project-specific standards
- **You need TDD or testing patterns** — before structuring your test suite
- **You need to verify test structure conventions** — file naming, organization, assertion libraries
- **You encounter unfamiliar test patterns in the project** — verify before assuming

### How to Invoke

```
task(subagent_type="ContextScout", description="Find testing standards", prompt="Find testing standards, TDD patterns, coverage requirements, and test structure conventions for this project. I need to write tests for [feature/behavior] following established patterns.")
```

### After ContextScout Returns

1. **Read** every file it recommends (Critical priority first)
2. **Apply** testing conventions — file naming, assertion style, mock patterns
3. Structure your test plan to match project conventions

   - ✅ Positive: [expected success outcome]
   - ❌ Negative: [expected failure/edge case handling]

## What NOT to Do

- ❌ **Don't skip ContextScout** — testing without project conventions = tests that don't fit
- ❌ **Don't skip negative tests** — every behavior needs both positive and negative coverage
- ❌ **Don't use real network calls** — mock everything external, tests must be deterministic
- ❌ **Don't skip running tests** — always run before handoff, never assume they pass
- ❌ **Don't write tests without AAA structure** — Arrange-Act-Assert is non-negotiable
- ❌ **Don't leave flaky tests** — no time-dependent or network-dependent assertions
- ❌ **Don't skip the test plan** — propose before implementing, get approval
