Maintainer Priorities

No specific priorities communicated yet.

Testing Opportunities Backlog

1. commands/_helpers.py (59%) — HIGH: _atomic_write, _update_gitignore_for_apm_modules, _load_apm_config, _list_available_scripts are untested pure I/O functions shared by all commands. Easy to test, high confidence.
2. Fix 7 pre-existing ANSI test failures — HIGH: test_unpacker.py (4) + test_update_command.py (2) fail because Rich Console emits ANSI codes into CliRunner output. Multiple fix PRs already opened; maintainer review needed.
3. utils/console.py (58%) — MEDIUM: Console output helpers with uncovered fallback paths.
4. agents_compiler.py (82%) — MEDIUM: PR [Test Improver] test: add unit tests for AgentsCompiler (65%→82% coverage) #221 open; remaining display/formatting paths need distributed compiler stack.
5. runtime/manager.py (49%) — MEDIUM: PR branch exists (test-assist/core-operations-runtime-manager-coverage).

Discovered Commands

# Install dev dependencies
pip install uv --break-system-packages && python3 -m uv sync --extra dev

# Run unit tests
python3 -m uv run pytest tests/unit/ --no-header -q

# Run with coverage
python3 -m uv run pytest tests/unit/ --no-header -q --cov=apm_cli --cov-report=term-missing

# Format code
python3 -m uv run black . && python3 -m uv run isort .

Notes:

• uv is not on PATH in CI — install via pip install uv --break-system-packages first
• --cov causes PyYAML global state corruption affecting parse_skill_file/parse_primitive_file when run in full suite; tests pass without --cov
