Test-Driven Development per WORKFLOW.md §16 — red-green-refactor as deterministic LLM guardrail.

  • Red-green-refactor
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Write a failing test
  • Behavior not implementation

What it does

Ad TDD is an agent skill from alexandremendoncaalvaro/CorridorKey-Runtime. Test-Driven Development per WORKFLOW.md §16 — red-green-refactor as deterministic LLM guardrail. Five phases — confirm regime, plan vertically, tracer bullet (one test → red → minimum code → green), incremental loop, refactor while green. Tests verify behavior through public interfaces; horizontal slicing (bulk-write tests then bulk-write code) is rejected as the named anti-pattern. Triggers on "TDD", "test-driven", "red-green-refactor", "test first", "write a failing test", "tracer bullet", "behavior not…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Test-driven development. The repository describes itself as: Native AI keying runtime and OFX plugin for DaVinci Resolve, built in collaboration with Corridor Digital.

When your agent uses it

  • Red-green-refactor
  • Write a failing test
  • Behavior not implementation
  • Vertical slice tests

Example prompts

  • “test-driven”
  • “red-green-refactor”
  • “test first”
  • “/ad-tdd”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e632fa5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ad TDD loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 224 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,063 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~224
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,063 words (~2,127 tokens).

“Implements WORKFLOW.md §16 end-to-end. The skill is for the implementation phase when the change's behavior is known and expressible as a test up front. No file is written. The output of the skill is the verified implementation that lands in…”
