writing-skills

You can document tacit knowledge into reusable process documentation by applying a test-driven development cycle to capture, validate, and refine skill guidance using structured sections and frontmatter constraints.

The test-driven approach to skill writing uses a RED-GREEN-REFACTOR workflow where you draft a minimal baseline scenario, build the skill to pass it, and refactor to close loopholes before deployment.

You validate process documentation for clarity and consistency by imposing exact frontmatter constraints and structured sections, then verifying readiness against baseline pressure scenarios to ensure resilience against rationalizations.

Yes, you can use test-driven development patterns to edit existing organizational knowledge bases by applying the red, green, and refactor cycle to validate and refine previously codified skills.

The best way to structure SKILL.md files for reliable discovery is to enforce exact YAML frontmatter constraints, use progressive disclosure patterns, and organize references to keep context focused and scalable.

Process documentation fails under pressure when it lacks resilience against rationalizations, which is resolved by applying a test-driven validation cycle to close loopholes and ensure exact compliance.
