SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the problem of manually implementing and testing Claude Code skills from guidance specifications. It automates the red-green-refactor workflow, ensuring skills are built test-first with deterministic verification rather than guesswork.

Core Features & Use Cases

Red-Green-Refactor Implementation: Turns a skill-guidance handoff spec into a fully built skill by writing failing eval cases first, then implementing until they pass.
Deterministic Verification: Ships with re-runnable eval harnesses and mutation spot-checks to prove the skill actually works, not just that it looks correct.
Pipeline Integration: Acts as Stage 2 of the skill-building pipeline, handing off a build report to skill-zipper for compression.

Quick Start

Use the skill-engineer-v1 skill to build and test a Claude Code skill from a skill-guidance handoff spec.

FAQPage Schema

How do I build and test Claude Code skills using a test-driven workflow?▼

Build and test Claude Code skills using a red-green-refactor workflow that writes failing eval cases first, then implements the skill logic until all tests pass deterministically. It processes skill-guidance handoff specifications to generate fully built skills.

Do I need Node.js to run eval harnesses for skill automation testing?▼

Yes, Node.js 18+ is required to run scaffold scripts, eval harnesses, and trigger-eval measurement tools against the skill-principle knowledge base for deterministic verification.

Can I use this approach for both deterministic scripts and LLM-behavioral skills?▼

Yes, the test-driven workflow applies to both deterministic script skills and LLM-behavioral skills, supporting eval cases, trigger measurement, and build reports for pipeline handoff.

What's the best way to verify Claude Code skills work correctly without guesswork?▼

Verify skills deterministically by running re-runnable eval harnesses and mutation spot-checks that prove the skill actually works, rather than relying on manual inspection or guesswork.

How does test-driven skill development integrate into a CI/CD pipeline?▼

The skill serves as Stage 2 of a skill-building pipeline, handing off a build report to skill-zipper for compression after completing the red-green-refactor implementation and verification cycle.

Why should I write failing eval cases before implementing a skill?▼

Writing failing eval cases first ensures skills are built test-first with deterministic verification, preventing guesswork and proving the implementation satisfies the skill-guidance handoff specification.
