test-driven-development

test-driven-development is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from RedWoodOG/Hermes-Desktop. It costs 22 tokens per session (1,177 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A development workflow called test-driven development, or TDD, where you write a failing test, add code to make it pass, and then improve the code.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps build new features and fixes by defining their behaviour in tests, implementing the smallest working change, and refactoring afterward.
Why use it?
It makes the expected behaviour explicit before implementation and helps catch regressions as the code changes.

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

test-driven-development 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 5d 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 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.
