Defines a test-first workflow (red–green–refactor) for coding agents: write failing tests, implement minimal code to pass, then refactor with repeatable rules a
Provides a concise Test-Driven Development workflow document for agents that write code. It prescribes the red–green–refactor cycle, test structure (arrange/act/assert), and rules to keep tests fast, independent, and meaningful.
Use this skill whenever an agent is asked to implement code, add features, or improve reliability — especially for maintainable software engineering tasks where tests should guide development. Suitable for feature work, bug fixes, and when enforcing test coverage.
Agents that generate or run tests and code — builder-style code agents, local CI runners, and any agent integrated with testing frameworks.
A TDD (test-first) workflow skill for coding agents defining red-green-refactor cycles. No bundled scripts — purely instructional SKILL.md. Clear and concise but lacks depth: no error handling guidance, no example projects, and no scripts to enforce the workflow. Common need but not unique among TDD skills.
No security concerns whatsoever — purely a markdown instruction set with no scripts, network calls, or executable content.
