Can I use this with any programming language?

Yes, the methodology is language-agnostic and works with any testing framework supported by your development environment.

What is the TDD inner loop in this skill?

The inner loop refers to the rapid cycle of writing a failing test, writing the minimum code to make it pass, and then refactoring for quality before moving to the next requirement.

How does the 'Story Log' feature work?

The skill prompts you to update a work summary as you progress, documenting what was implemented, design decisions made, and test coverage added for transparency.

How does this skill handle acceptance criteria?

It provides a structured framework to identify specific behaviors for each criterion, write a corresponding test (Given-When-Then), and verify implementation incrementally.

Security & Testing

Guides developers through the Test-Driven Development (TDD) inner loop to implement software features incrementally based on acceptance criteria.

This skill facilitates a disciplined 'inner loop' development process by enforcing the Red-Green-Refactor cycle within Claude Code. It helps developers break down complex features into small, reviewable steps, ensuring that every piece of code is backed by a failing test before implementation. By mapping acceptance criteria directly to implementation tasks and maintaining a 'Story Log,' this skill ensures high code quality, comprehensive test coverage, and a clear audit trail of design decisions and progress.
