    Document and test concurrent callback re-execution in GetOrSet

    In PR #2958, charmbracelet/crush added an explicit note to GetOrSet that its callback may run multiple times when used concurrently, and introduced a dedicated concurrent test (`TestMap_GetOrSet_Concurrent`) with goroutines, a start barrier, and a sleep window to expose TOCTOU-style repeated execution.

    Why It MattersDevelopers using `GetOrSet` in concurrent code paths now get a clear warning that the callback is not single-shot, so they can prevent duplicate side effects (for example repeated writes, extra API calls, or incorrect cache mutations) by making callback logic idempotent. The new test design (10 goroutines with a synchronized start and injected delay) makes this race condition observable in CI-style runs; watch for remaining callers that still assume one-time callback execution or perform non-idempotent operations inside the callback.

    Refine test-quality skill routing by making test-anti-patterns the general entrypoint

    This change (Variant B) resolves overlapping plugin activation by turning `test-anti-patterns` into the primary handler for pragmatic test-quality reviews, including smell-audit style prompts, while reducing `test-smell-detection` to an explicit niche skill invoked only for `testsmells.org`/19-smell-catalog requests. The update rewrites `test-smell-detection` eval prompts so the skill is exercised only under that narrow intent.

    Why It MattersDevelopers using dotnet/skills for code review automation will get more predictable agent behavior because general test-quality prompts will consistently reach the intended broad skill instead of bouncing between overlapping plugins, while explicit smell-catalog audits stay isolated. This should reduce incorrect review-path selection, but watch whether users and downstream tools clearly pass the stricter catalog wording so valid smell checks are not missed.

    Upgrade Vitest stack to 4.1.6

    This update is mainly a dev-dependency upgrade to Vitest 4.1.6 (and matching coverage package) in OpenCowork, intended to import upstream test bug fixes and a diff-performance improvement for faster, more stable local and CI test runs.

    Why It MattersDevelopers and CI operators can expect quieter browser screenshot tests and faster failure-diff reporting after this change, which should reduce wasted debug time and make test feedback more reliable; watch for any regressions in concurrent test behavior or legacy `sequential` API usage during the next few CI cycles. Technically, this comes from Vitest’s 4.1.6 patch changes, so validation should focus on browser test suites and snapshot-heavy projects for behavioral drift and changed warnings.

    Refine test-quality skill routing by making test-anti-patterns the general entrypoint

    This change (Variant B) resolves overlapping plugin activation by turning `test-anti-patterns` into the primary handler for pragmatic test-quality reviews, including smell-audit style prompts, while reducing `test-smell-detection` to an explicit niche skill invoked only for `testsmells.org`/19-smell-catalog requests. The update rewrites `test-smell-detection` eval prompts so the skill is exercised only under that narrow intent.
    ContributionIntroduced explicit routing separation: broad test audit prompts now map to `test-anti-patterns`, while `test-smell-detection` now activates only for explicit academic smell-catalog invocations, replacing overlapping triggers with distinct responsibilities.
    ImpactDevelopers using dotnet/skills for code review automation will get more predictable agent behavior because general test-quality prompts will consistently reach the intended broad skill instead of bouncing between overlapping plugins, while explicit smell-catalog audits stay isolated. This should reduce incorrect review-path selection, but watch whether users and downstream tools clearly pass the stricter catalog wording so valid smell checks are not missed.

    ContributionClarified GetOrSet’s concurrency contract by documenting that the user-provided `fn` can be executed repeatedly under contention, and added a regression-style concurrent unit test that systematically reproduces and observes this behavior.
    ImpactDevelopers using `GetOrSet` in concurrent code paths now get a clear warning that the callback is not single-shot, so they can prevent duplicate side effects (for example repeated writes, extra API calls, or incorrect cache mutations) by making callback logic idempotent.

    Upgrade Vitest stack to 4.1.6

    This update is mainly a dev-dependency upgrade to Vitest 4.1.6 (and matching coverage package) in OpenCowork, intended to import upstream test bug fixes and a diff-performance improvement for faster, more stable local and CI test runs.
    ContributionIt upgrades vitest-related tooling from 4.1.5 to 4.1.6, bringing in the upstream `ToMatchScreenshotResolvePath` project-reference fix in browser testing and a single-pass diff stringification path, so test failure output processing becomes more efficient and less error-prone in practice.
    ImpactDevelopers and CI operators can expect quieter browser screenshot tests and faster failure-diff reporting after this change, which should reduce wasted debug time and make test feedback more reliable; watch for any regressions in concurrent test behavior or legacy `sequential` API usage during the next few CI cycles. Technically, this comes from Vitest’s 4.1.6 patch changes, so validation should focus on browser test suites and snapshot-heavy projects for behavioral drift and changed warnings.

    dotnet/skills PR #671: test-anti-patterns / test-smell-detection: narrow-specialist re-pitch (Variant B)

    `test-anti-patterns` is now the umbrella audit skill for anti-patterns and smell-like prompts, and `test-smell-detection` is gated behind explicit catalog-based requests.
