What it does

Corvus Test Suite Regeneration is an agent skill from corvus-dotnet/Corvus.JsonSchema. Regenerate JSON Schema test classes from the JSON-Schema-Test-Suite git submodule. Covers the update-json-schema-test-suite.ps1 master script, the V5 test generator (Corvus.JsonSchemaTestSuite.CodeGenerator), exclusion configuration, and output directory structure. USE FOR: updating the test suite submodule, regenerating test classes after submodule or generator changes, understanding the test infrastructure. DO NOT USE FOR: running existing tests (use corvus-build-and-test), writing manual tests.

Its SKILL.md is about 870 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Test generation. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Support for Json Schema validation and entity generation. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • : updating the test suite submodule
  • Regenerating test classes after submodule
  • Generator changes
  • Understanding the test infrastructure

Example prompts

  • “/corvus-test-suite-regeneration”

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Updates the JSON-Schema-Test-Suite git submodule
  2. Regenerates V5 test classes (3 output directories)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ca269a3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • dotnet

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Corvus Test Suite Regeneration loads about 866 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 133 tokens; SKILL.md has 273 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~133
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~866

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Regenerate JSON Schema test classes from the JSON-Schema-Test-Suite git submodule.

USE FOR: updating the test suite submodule, regenerating test classes after submodule or generator changes, understanding the test infrastructure. DO NOT USE FOR: running existing tests (use corvus-build-and-test), writing manual tests.

Test Suite Regeneration

Master Script

powershell
.\update-json-schema-test-suite.ps1

This handles the full workflow:

  1. Updates the JSON-Schema-Test-Suite git submodule
  2. Regenerates V5 test classes (3 output directories)

V5 Test Generator

The Corvus.JsonSchemaTestSuite.CodeGenerator project generates test classes for 3 suites, output into two test projects:

Output subdirectoryPurpose
tests/Corvus.Text.Json.SchemaTestSuite.Tests/JsonSchemaTestSuite/Full type-based validation tests
tests/Corvus.Text.Json.EvaluatorTestSuite.Tests/StandaloneEvaluatorTestSuite/Evaluator-only tests
tests/Corvus.Text.Json.EvaluatorTestSuite.Tests/AnnotationTestSuite/Annotation collection tests

The output paths are configured in the generator's appsettings.json (outputPath, evaluatorOutputPath, annotationOutputPath). The emitted fixtures are OS-independent (embedded paths use /, embedded JSON uses LF), so regeneration is byte-stable across operating systems.

CRITICAL: The V5 generator must be run from its bin/ directory, not via dotnet run, because appsettings.json uses relative paths that resolve from the working directory.

powershell
# Build the generator
dotnet build tests\Corvus.JsonSchemaTestSuite.CodeGenerator -c Release

# Run from bin directory (use `dotnet <dll>` so it works on every OS;
# the apphost is `.exe` on Windows only)
Push-Location tests\Corvus.JsonSchemaTestSuite.CodeGenerator\bin\Release\net10.0
dotnet .\Corvus.JsonSchemaTestSuite.CodeGenerator.dll > $null
Pop-Location

Redirect stdout to $null to avoid PowerShell buffer overflow.

V4 Tests

V4 schema validation tests are in tests-v4/Corvus.Json.Specs.Tests/ as MSTest tests. These test V4 types (Corvus.Json.ExtendedTypes, Corvus.Json.CodeGeneration.CSharp) using runtime Roslyn compilation via JsonSchemaBuilderDriver. The test classes were generated from the same JSON-Schema-Test-Suite data and cover all drafts (4, 6, 7, 2019-09, 2020-12) plus OpenAPI 3.0.

V4 tests are NOT regenerated by the master script — they are static MSTest test classes.

Critical Rules

  1. Always delete old generated files before regenerating. The generators only create files — they never delete files that are no longer selected by exclusion rules. Stale files cause compilation errors or false test passes.

  2. Run from the correct working directory. The V5 generator uses relative paths from appsettings.json.

Exclusion Configuration

Test exclusions (for known spec failures or draft-specific skips) are configured in appsettings.json in the V5 generator project.
