SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires claude-flow.

What problem does it solve? Working alone on complex coding tasks often means slower debugging, missed edge cases, and inconsistent code quality. This Skill provides a structured AI pair programming partner that manages driver/navigator roles, continuously reviews code, runs tests, and tracks quality metrics throughout a development session. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Multiple Collaboration Modes: Driver, Navigator, Switch, TDD, Review, Mentor, and Debug modes with automatic role switching at configurable intervals. - Continuous Quality Verification: Real-time truth-score checks, security scanning, performance profiling, and automatic rollback when quality thresholds fail. - Integrated Testing Workflow: Automatic test generation, coverage tracking, and test watching with configurable minimum coverage enforcement. - Use Case: A developer fixing a memory leak starts a debug session with the debugger-expert agent, profiles memory usage, locates unremoved event listeners, implements cleanup code, and verifies the fix with tests before committing. ## Quick Start Start a pair programming session in TDD mode with test-first enabled and a 90 percent coverage target.

FAQPage Schema
How do I start an AI pair programming session?

Run claude-flow pair --start to begin a basic session. Add flags like --mode tdd, --agent senior-dev, or --verify to customize the collaboration mode, AI partner, and quality verification level.

What is the difference between driver and navigator mode?

In driver mode you write code while the AI gives strategic guidance and reviews. In navigator mode the AI writes implementation code while you provide direction and architectural decisions. Switch mode alternates roles at set intervals.

How does test-driven development work in a pair session?

Start with --mode tdd --test-first to follow a red-green-refactor cycle. The AI generates failing tests first, you or the AI implement minimal code to pass them, then the code is refactored while tests keep passing.

Can I configure quality thresholds and coverage requirements?

Yes, edit .claude-flow/pair-config.json to set verification thresholds, minimum coverage percentages, and complexity limits. Sessions can block commits or roll back changes when scores fall below configured thresholds.

What should I do if a pair programming session disconnects?

Use the --recover flag to restore a disconnected session from auto-save files. Sessions auto-save at configurable intervals, and you can also manually save, load, and export sessions by ID.
