What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Test-first development route for TDD, writing failing tests first, RED -> GREEN -> REFACTOR, and behavior-changing feature/bug/refactor work. Do not use for already-failing test root-cause debugging, test-report packaging, or final completion evidence.

tdd-guide (Codex Compatibility)
Use this skill for all feature work, bug fixes, and refactors that change behavior.
Routing Boundary
Use this skill when the user wants to build or change behavior through tests:
- TDD / test-driven development
- write failing tests first
- test-first implementation
- RED -> GREEN -> REFACTOR
Do not use it when tests are already failing and the user wants root cause; route that to systematic-debugging. Do not use it when the user only wants a test/coverage report; route that to generating-test-reports.
Core Rule
No production code before a failing test.
Workflow
- RED
- Write one failing test for one behavior.
- Confirm the failure is expected.
- GREEN
- Implement the minimal code to pass.
- Re-run tests and keep scope narrow.
- REFACTOR
- Improve structure/naming without changing behavior.
- Keep all tests green.
- COVERAGE
- Verify coverage target (recommended >=80% for lines/functions/branches).
- Add missing tests for edge/error paths.
Minimum Test Set
- Unit: public functions and core logic.
- Integration: API/data/service boundaries.
- E2E: critical user path only when relevant.
Required Edge Cases
- Null/undefined input
- Empty values
- Invalid types
- Boundary values
- Error paths (network/DB/file)
- Concurrency-sensitive behavior
Vibe Integration
- Primary coding skill in M-grade flow.
- Compatible fallback target for
everything-claude-code:tdd-guide. - For richer TDD patterns, combine with
test-driven-development.
