From the source SKILL.md

Generate a ready-to-run test file for a module or function that currently has no coverage. The skill reads the target source, infers its public surface and likely edge cases, picks the project's existing test framework and conventions, and writes a focused suite of meaningful cases — happy path, boundaries, and error handling — so you start from a real structure instead of a blank file.

What this skill does

Test Scaffolder is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the scaffolders sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/test-scaffolder/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when adding tests to untested code and you want a fast, structured starting point.
