System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enforces strict Test-Driven Development state-machine governance for AI interactions, ensuring every message starts with the current TDD state, transitions are validated by explicit post-conditions, and outputs include verifiable test results.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • State-driven prompts: every assistant message begins with the current TDD state prefix (PLANNING, RED, GREEN, REFACTOR, VERIFY, BLOCKED).
  • Post-condition validations: requires explicit success/failure evidence before transitioning states.
  • Auditable workflow: maintains a trace of tests, commands, and transitions to support coaching, training, and automation scenarios.

Quick Start

Activate the TDD governance by requesting: "start TDD" or "use a TDD approach" and the agent will initiate in PLANNING, guide the RED/GREEN/REFACTOR/VERIFY cycle, and show exact test outputs.
