## Target: $ARGUMENTS

## Instructions

1. Verify baseline test suite passes
2. Configure mutation testing tool for the project language
3. Run mutation testing on target directory
4. Analyze survived mutants
5. Report mutation score and identify weak test areas
6. Suggest additional tests to kill survived mutants
