77 / 100 · Review before installing

Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Force the states a happy-path run never reaches (a failing API, an empty list, a slow request, a timeout, an expired session, a toast that auto-dismisses) and check the UI actually handles them. Use when error handling was written but never run, when a loading or empty state needs verifying, when a bug only happens on a slow connection, or when a timer, poll, debounce or retry needs testing without sleeping.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'test-error-states' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'test-error-states' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named test-error-states already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/reticlehq/reticle' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '9d5855e46979cfc7e9f7f4de2f2e16200a08921f' -- 'skills/test-error-states' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/test-error-states' ~/.agents/skills/'test-error-states' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'test-error-states' ~/.claude/skills/'test-error-states' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
