Find the source modules that have no tests and prioritise which to cover first by risk: a bundled script maps modules to their tests by naming convention and imports and shows what is missing. Use when asked \"what is untested?\", where to add tests first, or to check that a change comes with tests. Not for line coverage; it works at module level without running anything (use coverage.py, c8 or go test -cover for that).

From the source SKILL.md

Line coverage tells you which lines ran; it says nothing about modules that no test touches at all, because they show up as zero and get lost in the average. This skill lists those modules directly, by matching test files to source files by name and by what the tests import, and then helps decide which gaps matter.
