Background and Context

CONTRIBUTING.md states under Bug Fix Workflow:

When a bug is fixed, the @tdd_expected_fail tag must be removed so the test runs normally as a regression guard.

Multiple feature files are tagged @skip at the feature level but reference closed issues. This means the regression guards for these fixed bugs are NOT running, creating a risk of silent regressions.

Current Behavior

The following feature files are @skip but reference closed issues:

Feature File	Referenced Issue	Issue State
`tdd_a2a_sdk_dependency.feature`	#2922	closed
`tdd_exec_env_resolution_precedence.feature`	#1080	closed
`tdd_event_bus_exception_swallow.feature`	#988	closed
`tdd_indentation_library_try_except.feature`	#2845	closed
`tdd_mcp_error_content_key.feature`	#2158	closed
`tdd_skill_add_regression.feature`	#980	closed

All of these features have their scenarios tagged @skip, meaning:

The regression tests are NOT running
If the fixes are accidentally reverted, CI will not catch it
The @skip tags were added as workarounds but never cleaned up after the fixes

Expected Behavior

When a bug is fixed:

The @tdd_expected_fail tag should be removed
The @skip tag should be removed
The scenarios should run normally as regression guards

Acceptance Criteria

All 6 feature files listed above have @skip removed
All scenarios in these features run and pass (confirming fixes are still in place)
Commented-out @tdd_expected_fail tags are removed (not just commented out)

Supporting Information

Issue triaged by project owner:

State: Verified
Priority: High — 6 TDD feature files are @skip but reference closed issues. This means regression guards for fixed bugs are NOT running. Per CONTRIBUTING.md, @skip must be removed when the referenced issue is closed.
Milestone: None (cross-cutting test quality issue)
Story Points: 2 — S — Removing @skip tags from 6 feature files and verifying they pass, 1-4 hours.
MoSCoW: MoSCoW/Must have — CONTRIBUTING.md explicitly requires removing @skip when bugs are fixed. Stale @skip tags create silent regression risks. This is a test quality requirement.
Parent Epic: #5406 (Testing Infrastructure & Quality Hardening Legendary)

Valid test quality issue. The fix is straightforward: remove @skip from 6 feature files and verify the scenarios pass.

Update: Additional investigation found that ALL 14 @skip feature files reference closed issues. The complete list is:

Feature File	Referenced Issue	Issue State
`tdd_a2a_sdk_dependency.feature`	#2922	closed
`tdd_automation_profile_session_leak.feature`	#987	closed
`tdd_checkpoint_real_rollback.feature`	#822	closed
`tdd_context_tier_runtime.feature`	#821	closed
`tdd_correction_checkpoint_wiring.feature`	#986	closed
`tdd_exec_env_resolution_precedence.feature`	#1080	closed
`tdd_event_bus_exception_swallow.feature`	#988	closed
`tdd_indentation_library_try_except.feature`	#2845	closed
`tdd_json_decode_crash_persistence.feature`	#989	open (still a bug)
`tdd_mcp_error_content_key.feature`	#2158	closed
`tdd_missing_validation_unit_tests_yaml.feature`	#1039	open (still a bug)
`tdd_server_connect_atomic_writes.feature`	#993	open (still a bug)
`tdd_skill_add_regression.feature`	#980	closed
`tdd_tool_runner_env_precedence.feature`	#2592	(need to check)
`session_list_summary_dedup.feature`	#3046	closed

For features referencing closed issues: remove @skip and run as regression guards.
For features referencing open issues: these should have active @tdd_expected_fail tags (not @skip) so they run and invert the result.
