Testing Skills With Subagents

To test process documentation for agent rationalization, you apply a test-driven development approach that establishes a baseline, observes failures under pressure scenarios, and refines the documentation to close rationalization loopholes.

Test-driven development for process documentation is a RED-GREEN-REFACTOR approach that establishes baseline failures, writes skills to fix them, and iteratively refines the documentation to prevent agent rationalization and failures.

You pressure test skills by running them against manually defined real-world scenarios with known pressure points, observing agent performance, and analyzing failures to refactor the documentation and maintain compliance.

To refactor process documentation and close loopholes, you analyze why skills fail under pressure, identify new rationalizations, and iteratively refine the documentation to prevent those rationalizations from recurring.

Yes, test-driven skill development requires manual scenario definition and documentation review to accurately evaluate agent compliance against real-world pressure points and prevent rationalization.
