Can I use stubs or 'pass' statements during development?

No, this skill strictly forbids 'pass', 'NotImplementedError', and stubs to ensure that the code implemented is the simplest possible solution to make the test pass.

What is the 'Canon TDD' methodology?

It refers to the original Test-Driven Development rules popularized by Kent Beck, which mandate writing a failing test before any production code and following a strict Red-Green-Refactor cycle.

How does the commit discipline work?

The skill automatically categorizes your progress into separate git commits: 'test' for the failing test, 'feat' for the passing implementation, and 'refactor' for any subsequent cleanup.

Why does the skill stop after the RED phase?

The skill pauses to ensure the test fails for the right reason (the behavior doesn't exist) rather than a syntax error or missing module, preventing false positives in the testing cycle.

Enforces Kent Beck's Test-Driven Development methodology to ensure robust code quality through strict Red-Green-Refactor cycles.

This skill transforms Claude into a disciplined TDD practitioner, enforcing the 'Canon TDD' rules of writing failing tests before any implementation code. It guides the development process through concrete input/output assertions, prevents the use of stubs or empty passes, and maintains strict commit discipline for every phase of the cycle. It is particularly useful for developers who prioritize software craft, high test coverage, and architectural integrity by ensuring that every line of code is justified by a failing behavioral test.
