Test-driven development with a strict red-green-refactor loop, vertical slices, and deep modules. Use to build features or fix bugs using TDD.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Test-Driven Development (Red-Green-Refactor) This skill forces you to work in **tight TDD loops**: one failing test, one implementation, then refactor. It prefers vertical slices and **deep modules** so tests stay honest, stable, and focused on real behavior instead of implementation details. This skill comes with extra documents you can reference for philosophy and examples: - [deep-modules.md](references/deep-modules.md) – why deep modules make AI‑driven TDD easier and safer. - [refactoring.md](references/refactoring.md) – patterns for safe refactors. - [interface-design.md](assets/interface-design.md) – how to design interfaces for TDD. - [mocking.md](assets/mocking.md) – how and when to mock without lying to yourself. - [tests.md](assets/tests.md) – how and when to mock without lying to yourself. When you need guidance on design or refactoring, **open and read these files** instead of guessing. ## When to Use Use this skill when the user: - Wants to build a feature or fix a bug **using TDD**. - Mentions “red‑green‑refactor”, “test‑first”, or “write the tests first”. - Wants honest integration or module‑level tests that drive design rather than brittle unit tests. …

How to install
mdr add kambleakash0/agent-skills/incremental-tdd@sha256:59cdc6568b3c8e3eThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
