What is the Overnight Development skill?

It is a Claude Code extension that automates coding tasks using Git hooks to ensure all changes pass tests and meet quality standards before being committed.

Can I monitor the AI's progress while it works?

Yes, the skill maintains a detailed log file (.overnight-dev-log.txt) where you can track every activity, test failure, and successful commit during the session.

Which testing frameworks are supported?

It is framework-agnostic and can be easily configured for various environments including Node.js (Jest), Python (pytest), and Ruby on Rails.

How does it enforce Test-Driven Development (TDD)?

The skill installs pre-commit hooks that trigger your test suite; Claude will iteratively debug and fix the code until all tests pass and the commit is successfully allowed.

Productivity & Workflow

Automates autonomous software development using Git hooks to enforce test-driven development (TDD) and ensure production-ready code.

About

Overnight Development is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to enable autonomous coding sessions while maintaining rigorous quality standards. By integrating Git hooks into the development lifecycle, the skill forces a test-driven development (TDD) workflow that blocks commits until all tests pass and linting requirements are met. It is particularly useful for building new features, refactoring legacy code, or fixing complex bugs during off-hours, allowing developers to return to fully tested, production-ready code with comprehensive documentation and clean commit histories.

Key Features

Automated TDD enforcement via integrated Git hooks

Automated documentation and conventional commit generation
0 GitHub stars
Real-time progress tracking and activity logging

Use Cases

Refactoring legacy database layers or logic modules safely and autonomously
Building complex new features with high test coverage during non-working hours
Automating bug fixes and regression testing for identified production issues
