tdd-enforcer
Enforce strict red-green-refactor test-driven development for a feature. Decomposes the feature into testable behaviors, then for each behavior writes a failing test, runs it and verifies it fails for the RIGHT reason by asserting on the failure message, writes the minimal implementation, runs green, refactors under green tests, and commits one cycle at a time. Detects violations where implementation code appeared before its test and halts. Ends with a coverage delta report and a commit-per-cycle audit trail. Use when you want to "do TDD", "build this feature test-first", "enforce red-green-refactor", "write the test first", "strict TDD", or "make sure every line was driven by a test".

What does the tdd-enforcer skill do?
Enforce strict red-green-refactor test-driven development for a feature. Decomposes the feature into testable behaviors, then for each behavior writes a failing test, runs it and verifies it fails for the RIGHT reason by asserting on the failure message, writes the minimal implementation, runs green, refactors under green tests, and commits one cycle at a time. Detects violations where implementation code appeared before its test and halts. Ends with a coverage delta report and a commit-per-cycle audit trail. Use when you want to "do TDD", "build this feature test-first", "enforce red-green-refactor", "write the test first", "strict TDD", or "make sure every line was driven by a test". It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.
How do I install the tdd-enforcer skill?
Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install tdd-enforcer` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/tdd-enforcer/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.
Which AI tools does tdd-enforcer work with?
tdd-enforcer runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.
Is the tdd-enforcer skill free?
Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.
How do I use tdd-enforcer after installing it?
In Claude Code, type `/tdd-enforcer` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.
Can I share the tdd-enforcer skill with my team?
Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
