+## Coverage in Agent Environments
+
+When Vitest detects it is running inside an AI coding agent, it automatically adjusts the default `text` reporter to reduce output and minimize token usage:
+
+- `skipFull: true` is set on the `text` reporter, so files with 100% coverage are omitted from the terminal output.
+- The [`text-summary`](/config/coverage#coverage-reporter) reporter is added automatically, so the agent always sees a concise totals table even when `skipFull` hides all individual files.
+
+These adjustments only apply when the `text` reporter is already part of the active reporter list (it is included in the default). Explicitly configured reporters are never removed.
