Cypress Docs

This does exactly one thing: it fetches Cypress documentation from official sources and refuses to guess. It prioritizes the LLM-optimized markdown paths under /llm/* on docs.cypress.io, which means cleaner extraction and less HTML noise. The anti-hallucination rules are strict: if it can't verify an API or behavior in the docs, it says so instead of inventing syntax. You'd reach for this when you need to quote exact command signatures, confirm configuration options, or look up error messages rather than relying on memory. It's built for grounding answers in what Cypress actually documents, not what sounds plausible.

Cypress Documentation

Purpose

Enable the agent to retrieve accurate, up-to-date, and verifiable information about the Cypress testing framework by prioritizing official documentation and structured sources.

When to use

Apply this skill whenever the task depends on finding, reading, or quoting Cypress documentation rather than general testing intuition:

Look up facts: commands, APIs, assertions, lifecycle hooks, configuration options, environment variables, CLI flags, plugins, or TypeScript types as documented by Cypress.
Confirm behavior: how something works in a given Cypress version, E2E vs component testing differences, browser support, or networking/cy.intercept semantics.
Before asserting “Cypress can/cannot…”: search docs first; do not rely on memory for exact signatures, defaults, or deprecated APIs.
Extract structured content: follow the LLM-optimized docs strategy below (llms.txt, /llm/*) when fetching or summarizing doc pages.
Ground answers for others: when explaining Cypress to a user, writing examples, or reviewing code where correctness must match official docs.
