TDD Implementation

Red-Green Discipline

For every unit of behavior:

1. Write a failing test that defines the expected behavior
2. Run it — confirm it fails with the right error (not a syntax error)
3. Write minimum code to make it pass
4. Run it — confirm it passes
5. Refactor if needed
6. Repeat for the next behavior

Do not write implementation code before the failing test exists. Do not proceed past a failing test.

Phase Scope

Read your phase spec from memory (implementation_plan, find the matching phase by name). Implement only what is in that phase. If you discover scope that should be in another phase, write a note to memory under scope_note:<phase_name> and stop — do not expand scope.

On Unexpected Failure

If a test fails unexpectedly (not the current TDD step), stop. Write to memory:

python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/memory.py" write \
  --key "unexpected_failure:<phase_name>" \
  --value '{"test":"<name>","error":"<message>","files_changed":["..."]}' \
  --tags "failure,needs_attention"

Then surface the failure to the user. Do not continue with other tests.

Code Standards (applied before commit)

Every change must be checked by the reviewer agent before committing. The reviewer checks for:

• Hardcoded credentials or secrets (API keys, passwords, tokens in code)
• SQL/shell/XSS injection vectors (unsanitized inputs passed to queries or shell commands)
• Insecure defaults (debug mode left on, auth disabled, 0.0.0.0 binding without intent)
• Missing input validation at system boundaries (user input, external API responses)

Do not commit a phase until the reviewer approves it.
