Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00075 | $0.00463 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00037 | $0.00231 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00093 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00046 |
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 2d 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
Test-Driven Development
The test is an executable statement of behavior, not a coverage decoration.
Red-green-refactor
- Red: name one behavior and write the smallest test at the highest seam that can fail for the missing behavior.
- Verify red: run the focused command. Confirm it fails because the behavior is absent, not because of a typo, broken fixture, or setup error.
- Green: implement the simplest production change that makes the test pass. Do not add speculative options or unrelated cleanup.
- Verify green: run the focused test and relevant existing tests.
- Refactor: improve names, duplication, and boundaries while keeping the suite green. Add the next behavior only after the current loop is stable.
Honest tests
- Assert user-visible or contract-visible behavior, not private call counts.
- Prefer real collaborators; mock only an expensive, nondeterministic, or unavailable boundary and state why.
- Make failures diagnostic: clear name, small fixture, one cause.
- Include error, empty, boundary, retry, ordering, and permission cases when they are part of the contract.
Exceptions
For a prototype, generated output, or docs-only change, state why test-first is not useful and choose another observable check. “I will test later” is not an exception for production behavior.
Use test-design.md when the test seam or fixture
quality is unclear. Pair with root-cause-debugging for an existing failure
and completion-verification at the final gate.
Completion condition
The loop is credible when the test was observed failing for the intended reason, passes after the change, neighboring checks remain green, and the remaining untested behavior is named.
What ships with it
1 file 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.
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.

test-driven-development is a skill published in the GitHub repository thiientv/godmode (93 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 75 tokens to every session and 463 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-30.
Other skills, from other repositories
agent-evaluation-reporting
Use when summarizing agent evaluations where autonomous, assisted, failed, timed-out, or invalid outcomes must remain distinct and comparable.
rulesync
Generates and syncs AI rule configuration files (.cursorrules, CLAUDE.md, copilot-instructions.md) across 20+ coding tools from a single source. Use when syncing AI rules, running rulesync commands, importing or generating rule files, or managing shared AI coding configurations.
establishing-project-context
Use when the user asks to establish shared project language, or project work exposes a conflicting, renamed, or deprecated domain term that needs active semantic modeling. Routine small tasks stay on the fast path.
autoprompt
Explicit-only useful-first orchestration. Invoke /autoprompt to turn a mission into one executable roadmap, build dependency-safe lanes, and verify the result with independent reviewers. Never infer invocation from ordinary requests. Never resume from leftover artifacts without an explicit resume instruction.
memstack-business-gdpr
Use this skill when the user says 'GDPR', 'data protection', 'privacy compliance', 'DPA', 'DSAR', 'data subject request', 'cookie consent', 'privacy audit', 'CCPA', or asks 'do I need GDPR for this repo'. Scans the repository to detect what personal data is collected, classifies sensitivity, determines whether GDPR…
echo
Use when the user references past sessions, asks 'what did we do', 'do you remember', 'last session', 'recall', or 'continue from'.
