Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned rawveg/skillsforge-marketplace at 9561ce2088.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

Scanned
10 files, 3,013 lines
This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill provides expertise in Test-Driven Development (TDD). It can guide you through the process of writing tests before code, iteratively developing functionality based on those tests, and refactoring for clean design. The agent will assist with test case creation, implementation guidance, and identifying areas for improvement within a TDD workflow.

When to use it

  • New project setup: When starting a new software development project where you want to ensure code quality from the outset.
  • Refactoring existing code: To guide refactoring efforts by first defining test cases that capture desired behavior.
  • Debugging complex issues: To isolate and verify fixes for bugs through targeted tests.
  • Learning TDD principles: As a mentor or tutor to understand and apply TDD effectively.

Key capabilities

  • Test case generation based on requirements.
  • Guidance on writing failing, passing, and refactoring tests.
  • Identification of edge cases and potential failure points.
  • Explanation of TDD best practices.

Example prompts

  • "Help me write a TDD test for a function that calculates the factorial of a number."
  • "I have this code; can you help me write failing tests first?"
  • "Explain how to refactor my code after I've passed all the initial tests."

Tips & gotchas

The agent assumes some familiarity with programming concepts and testing frameworks. To get the most out of it, be prepared to provide clear requirements or existing code snippets for analysis.
