tdd

tdd is a command for Claude Code from Claude-Code-Community-Ireland/claude-code-resources. It costs 17 tokens per session (310 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for test-driven development, or TDD: writing a failing test, adding the smallest code that passes it, and then improving the code.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps detect the project's test framework, split a feature into testable pieces, write tests first, implement them, refactor, and run the full test suite.
Why use it?
It makes the requested behavior explicit in tests and checks each small change as it is built.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

tdd scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

TDD Workflow

You are starting a test-driven development session.

Steps

  1. Detect the test framework: Search for test configuration files (jest.config, vitest.config, pytest.ini, Cargo.toml [dev-dependencies], etc.) and existing test files to understand the project's testing setup.

  2. Understand the request: Read the user's feature description in $ARGUMENTS. If unclear, ask for clarification.

  3. Break it down: Decompose the feature into small, independently testable increments. List them as a checklist.

  4. Launch the TDD coach: Use the Task tool to spawn the tdd-coach agent with the following prompt:

    Implement the following feature using strict TDD (red-green-refactor): Feature: $ARGUMENTS Test framework: [detected framework] Follow the red-green-refactor cycle for each increment. Write the failing test first, then the minimal implementation, then refactor. Run tests after each step.

  5. Verify: After the agent completes, run the full test suite to confirm everything passes.

  6. Report: Summarize what was built, how many tests were added, and the final test suite status.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
