orch-tdd

orch-tdd is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mattmre/EVOKORE-MCP-PUBLIC. It costs 46 tokens per session (1,924 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A test-driven development workflow for building a feature by writing a failing test, making it pass with the smallest change, and then cleaning up the code. TDD is a method that uses tests to guide implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement a feature through the RED, GREEN, and REFACTOR stages while recording test and code results.
Why use it?
It turns a feature request into checked steps and preserves evidence that the test failed for the right reason and later passed.

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

orch-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 8d 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.

Orchestration TDD

Purpose

Direct entry point for Test-Driven Development workflow. Guides implementation through the RED/GREEN/REFACTOR cycle with evidence capture at each stage.

Invocation

orch-tdd <feature-description>

Arguments

Argument Required Description
feature-description Yes Clear description of feature to implement
target-path No Directory or file to target
test-framework No Override default test framework

Workflow

1. Parse Requirements

  • Parse feature description into testable requirements
  • Identify target files and test framework

2. RED Phase

  • Write failing test(s) for the feature
  • Verify test fails for the right reason
  • Capture: test file path, failure output

3. GREEN Phase

  • Write minimal implementation to pass test
  • Run test suite to verify pass
  • Capture: implementation file path, pass output

4. REFACTOR Phase

  • Identify code smells or duplication
  • Refactor while keeping tests green
  • Capture: refactored files, final test output

Stage Tracking

Track current stage in project status:

## TDD Progress
- [x] RED: test written, fails correctly
- [x] GREEN: implementation passes
- [ ] REFACTOR: cleanup complete

Outputs

Output Description
Test files New or updated test file(s)
Implementation Minimal code to pass tests
Evidence RED/GREEN/REFACTOR stage captures
Task update Progress logged in task tracking

Evidence Capture

Minimum evidence per stage:

  • RED: Test code + failure message
  • GREEN: Implementation code + pass confirmation
  • REFACTOR: Diff summary + all tests still pass

Example Usage

orch-tdd "Add user authentication with JWT tokens"

Expected flow:

  1. Write test for authentication endpoint
  2. Verify test fails (no auth implemented)
  3. Implement minimal JWT auth
  4. Verify test passes
  5. Refactor for clarity and security
  6. Capture evidence at each stage

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
