    Junior Test Drive Developer (TDD)

    Example session with this skill installed

    Implement T-001 for the "Vault" project. Goal: add basic encryption to the storage module. Tasks are at plans/tasks.md. Follow TDD. Only touch files listed in T-001.

    • Read your context and instructions
    • Compiled the junior test drive
    • Generated the document

    I have implemented task T-001 (Encryption Implementation) for the Vault project. The implementation followed the strict RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle, and no files outside the authorized list were modified.

    StoryAs a user, I want my stored notes encrypted so they are not readable in plain text on disk.
    Files Modifiedtests/test_crypto.py (created), vault/crypto.py (created)
    RED StepRan pytest tests/test_crypto.py. Failed with ImportError (Module not found).
    GREEN StepRan pytest tests/test_crypto.py. Passed after implementing minimal AES logic.
    Existing TestsAll 12 existing suite tests passed.
    RefusedRefused request to add cryptography library; used stdlib hashlib and secrets to avoid stack drift.

    Next steps

    • Review the handoff at plans/tdd-T-001.md.
    • Run the QA Engineer skill to verify the implementation against the full product spec.
    • Proceed to task T-002 (Key Rotation) once T-001 is merged.

    About this skill

    The problem

    LLM developers often over-implement, skipping test-driven protocols and introducing architecture drift or "scope creep" into single tasks. This leads to messy diffs where production code is written before a failing test exists, or dependencies are added without architectural approval.

    What it does

    • Enforces a strict RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycle by requiring a verified failing test before any production code is written.
    • Constrains file modifications exclusively to the paths defined in the task handoff.
    • Identifies and blocks implementation if the task requires unauthorized architecture changes like new databases or SDKs.
    • Generates a standardized TDD handoff report documenting the specific commands used for test failure and success.

    Why this beats prompting it yourself

    Generic prompts often result in the agent "helping" by starting the next task or refactoring files it wasn't assigned to touch. This skill provides a rigid procedural framework that treats the task list as a binding contract, ensuring your codebase remains clean and your PRs remain focused.

    Use cases

    • Implementing individual features from a pre-defined senior planner backlog.
    • Fixing specific bugs that require a reproduction test case before a patch.
    • Adding atomic functions to an existing module while strictly adhering to a provided architecture spec.
    • Running a "junior" agent in a multi-agent workflow to handle isolated implementation tickets.

    Known limitations

    This skill requires a pre-existing task list and architecture document to function. It will not create project plans, choose your tech stack, or perform final QA sign-off.
