-# Agent Instructions — Freshworks Test Pipeline Dev Tools
-
-This file is the agent entry point for AI assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) working in a Freshworks platform service repo. It routes to the right skill based on what needs to be done.
-
-## How to use skills
-
-When the user invokes `/skill-name`:
-1. Read `.claude/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md` (Claude Code) or `.cursor/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md` (Cursor)
-2. Follow the instructions in that file completely — skills are step-by-step agent workflows, not static templates
-3. Skills inspect the repo first, reason about what's needed, confirm with the user, then execute
-
-**Never copy-paste from templates without first reading the actual repo structure.** Every project has unique package names, module layouts, port numbers, and test patterns.
-
----
-
-## Which skill to use
-
-| Goal | Skill | Notes |
-|---|---|---|
-| New repo — set up everything from scratch | `/setup-test-pipeline` | Covers unit tests, JaCoCo/nyc, mutation, Postman, API coverage, quality report, Jenkins |
-| Existing repo — find and fill gaps | `/enhance-test-pipeline` | Audits what's present, adds only what's missing, checks security guardrails |
-| Add mutation tests only | `/setup-mutation-tests` | PIT for Java, Stryker for Node — discovers actual package scope before configuring |
-| Set up Postman/Newman infrastructure | `/setup-api-tests` | Collections, environments, scripts (Java: WireMock; Node: nock) |
-| Write tests for specific endpoints | `/write-api-tests [METHOD /path]` | e.g. `/write-api-tests POST /api/v3/installations` |
-| Run tests | `/run-test-suite` | Knows all `run-all.sh` flags, CI stage-by-stage patterns |
-| Review test quality | `/review-test-suite` | 20-point maturity check |
-
----
-
-## Auto-detect: no skill specified
-
-If the user asks to "set up tests", "improve the pipeline", or similar without specifying a skill, inspect the repo first and decide:
-
-```bash
-# Is this Java or Node?
-ls pom.xml 2>/dev/null && echo "Java" || echo "Node"
-
-# What pipeline pieces already exist?
-ls postman/scripts/run-all.sh 2>/dev/null && echo "run-all.sh present"
-grep -l "pitest-maven" pom.xml 2>/dev/null && echo "PIT present"           # Java
-grep '"mutation-tests"' package.json 2>/dev/null && echo "Stryker present"  # Node
-ls postman/scripts/report-generators/java-api-coverage-matrix.sh 2>/dev/null && echo "Java API coverage present"
-ls postman/scripts/report-generators/node-api-coverage-matrix.sh 2>/dev/null && echo "Node API coverage present"
-ls postman/reports/ 2>/dev/null && echo "Reports present"
-grep -l "Quality Report\|generateQualityReport" Jenkinsfile 2>/dev/null && echo "Jenkins quality report present"
-```
-
-- **Nothing exists** → use `/setup-test-pipeline`
-- **Some things exist** → use `/enhance-test-pipeline`
-- **Specific component missing** → use the targeted skill

-## Reference implementations
-
-These repos are the canonical examples of a fully set-up pipeline:
-
-| Repo | Type | What it demonstrates |
-|---|---|---|
-| `mp-installation` | Java/Spring Boot | PIT mutation, JaCoCo, multi-product Postman, API coverage matrix, quality report, Jenkins ShiftLeft |
-| `freshapps_api_node` | Node/Express | Stryker since/full modes, nyc coverage, Newman staging, node-api-coverage-matrix, quality report |
-| `dp-apps` | Java/Spring Boot | Same as mp-installation — the original reference |
-
-When a skill needs a concrete example of a script, config, or Jenkinsfile stage, refer to these repos.
