Key Features

• Before implementation, checks a feature's task list for missing unit, API, E2E, accessibility and screenshot work, and adds the tasks.
• After implementation, writes a tester walkthrough from the recorded test results.
• Freshness tracking flags walkthroughs that changed code made stale; a CI gate can require them before a PR.

Additional Context

One of the Sanduq extensions (https://github.com/samykabu/sanduq), all MIT. The full set is also published in its own catalog: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/samykabu/sanduq/main/catalog.json. The ids scope and memory from the same repository are not submitted because the community catalog already has unrelated extensions with those ids.
