XP Copilot

Overview

This skill guides the agent through the Extreme Programming workflow, prioritizing TDD, simple design, and continuous feedback.

TDD Workflow (Red-Green-Refactor)

1. Red: Create a failing test in backend/tests/. Run it using scripts/run_test.sh.
2. Green: Write the minimum code in backend/app/ to pass the test.
3. Refactor: Clean up the code while keeping the tests green.

Rules of Engagement

• Test First: Production code modification is forbidden without a corresponding test case.
• Small Iterations: Deliver small, functional increments.
• Continuous Validation: Use scripts/run_test.sh after every change.

Reference Materials

• XP & TDD Guide: Detailed breakdown of the TDD phases and pair programming mindset.

Resources

• scripts/run_test.sh: Executes pytest inside the project's Docker test environment.
