tdd-orchestrator

tdd-orchestrator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HappyMonkeyAI/AgentsProtocol. It costs 59 tokens per session (1,831 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for using test-driven development, or TDD: writing a failing test, making it pass, and then improving the code. It also covers coordinating several coding agents around this process.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan TDD work, coordinate multi-agent development, apply testing practices, and verify implementation results.
Why use it?
It helps teams follow the same testing cycle and checks instead of adding tests only after code is written.

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-orchestrator 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 4d 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.

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.

tdd-orchestrator is a skill published in the GitHub repository HappyMonkeyAI/AgentsProtocol (5 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 1,831 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
