SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Guides developers to safely and incrementally improve ClaudeBar by applying TDD and domain-driven design. This skill helps refine existing features, enhance UX, performance, or code quality without introducing new capabilities.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured workflow for planning, testing, and validating improvements.
  • TDD-driven approach that encourages writing tests before implementing changes.
  • Risk mitigation with minimal, verifiable changes and regression checks.
  • Use cases include UX polish, performance tweaks, or code quality improvements to existing features.

Quick Start

To safely improve ClaudeBar, read current behavior, write a failing test, implement the change to make it pass, and run all tests.

FAQPage Schema
How do I improve existing code behavior without introducing regressions?

Use a TDD-driven refinement workflow to safely improve existing code: read current behavior, write a failing test, implement the minimal change, and run all tests to verify no regressions occurred.

What's the best way to apply test-driven development for UX polish and performance tweaks?

Apply a structured TDD workflow that writes failing tests before implementing changes, ensuring minimal-risk, verifiable refinements to existing UX and performance features.

Can I use this TDD workflow for adding new features to ClaudeBar?

No. This TDD workflow targets refinements to existing features—UX, performance, and code-quality improvements—not introducing new capabilities or adding new features to ClaudeBar.

How does test-driven development help with code quality improvements?

TDD helps with code quality improvements by requiring a failing test before any change, enforcing minimal verifiable edits, and running regression checks that confirm refinements preserve intended behavior.

Do I need to write tests before implementing UX or performance changes?

Yes. This skill enforces a TDD-driven approach where you write a failing test capturing desired behavior before implementing the UX or performance change, then run all tests to validate.
