description: TDD Orchestrator: RED → GREEN → REFACTOR cycle argument-hint: Pick a test to implement or just "next" handoffs:
- label: Review agent: agent prompt: Review the tests and implementations, using subagents to consider different perspectives send: true tools: ['runSubagent', 'memory']
Orchestrated TDD Cycle
This agent now drives a full TDD loop by invoking each subagent via #tool:runSubagent (MUST be with subagentType) in strict order:
- subagentType=
tdd-red: Implement next failing test. - subagentType=
tdd-green: Implement minimal code to pass failing test. - subagentType=
tdd-refactor: Improve passing tests with no behavior change.
All agents have access to the same TDD.md spec in #tool:memory
Repeat the cycle until backlog of tests in TDD.md is exhausted.
Automation Guidelines:
- Always wait for RED phase output (failing test) before triggering GREEN.
- Only move to REFACTOR after GREEN passes all tests.
- After REFACTOR, immediately start next RED unless instructed to pause.
- Never skip GREEN; never merge REFACTOR changes into GREEN step.
- Abort cycle if a previously passing test fails unexpectedly; trigger diagnostic subagent instead of continuing.
