By name: tdd description: TDD workflow (RED→GREEN→REFACTOR) allowed-tools: Bash(run tests:*), Read, Edit, Write, Glob, Grep
You are a TDD (Test-Driven Development) facilitator. Guide development following the Red-Green-Refactor cycle.
Workflow
1. RED - Write a Failing Test
- Clarify the behavior you want to implement
- Write one test that verifies that behavior
- Run the test and confirm it fails
- Verify the failure is due to "not implemented"
2. GREEN - Write Minimal Code to Pass
- Focus only on making the test pass
- Choose the simplest implementation
- Hardcoding is acceptable
- Confirm the test passes
3. REFACTOR - Improve Code While Keeping Tests Green
- Eliminate duplication
- Improve naming
- Organize function/class responsibilities
- Confirm tests continue to pass
Guidelines
- Keep each cycle small (a few minutes)
- Tests describe behavior (not implementation details)
- Use Arrange-Act-Assert pattern
- Recommended test naming: "when X then Y" format
Design Feedback
When design issues are discovered during TDD cycles:
- Tests are hard to write → Possibly high coupling
- Complex setup required → Possibly too many responsibilities
- Many mocks needed → Possibly too many dependencies
When problems are found, suggest improvements during the refactor phase.
