What problem does it solve? Untested skill documentation often fails in practice because agents rationalize away rules under time pressure, sunk cost, or authority. This Skill applies test-driven development to skill authoring so new or edited skills are verified against real agent behavior before deployment. ## Core Features & Use Cases - TDD-based skill authoring: Run baseline pressure scenarios with subagents (RED), write the skill addressing observed failures (GREEN), then close rationalization loopholes (REFACTOR). - Skill Discovery Optimization (SDO): Guidance for writing name and description frontmatter with triggering conditions, keyword coverage, and token efficiency so agents find the skill. - Testing methodology references: Includes detailed guides for pressure-scenario testing, persuasion principles for discipline-enforcing skills, and Anthropic's official authoring best practices. - Use Case: Before publishing a new TDD-enforcement skill, run a scenario where an agent has 200 lines of untested code and a dinner deadline, document its rationalizations, then write counters until the agent complies under maximum pressure. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create a new skill following the writing-skills TDD process, starting with a baseline pressure scenario before writing any documentation.
