What's inside

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.

SKILL.md164 linessingle file

Write comprehensive failing tests following TDD red phase principles.

[Extended thinking: Generates failing tests that properly define expected behavior using test-automator agent.]

Use this skill when

Starting the TDD red phase for new behavior
You need failing tests that capture expected behavior
You want edge case coverage before implementation

Do not use this skill when

You are in the green or refactor phase
You only need performance benchmarks
Tests must run against production systems

Instructions

Identify behaviors, constraints, and edge cases.
Generate failing tests that define expected outcomes.
Ensure failures are due to missing behavior, not setup errors.
Document how to run tests and verify failures.

Safety

Keep test data isolated and avoid production environments.
Avoid flaky external dependencies in the red phase.

Role

Generate failing tests using Task tool with subagent_type="unit-testing::test-automator".
