Does this skill handle Test-Driven Development?

Yes, the workflow explicitly encourages writing tests first to drive the implementation and ensure high code quality before moving to production code.

Can it post updates directly to GitHub?

Yes, the skill includes automated steps to comment on the GitHub issue when implementation starts and when it is completed with a summary.

What branch naming convention does it use?

It follows a strict format of issue-number followed by a brief description, such as 42-add-tensor-ops, to ensure traceability.

Does it support code linting and formatting?

Yes, it integrates with project-specific tools like 'just' and 'pixi' to run pre-commit hooks and formatters before any code is pushed.
