SAM Autonomous TDD Pipeline

This skill orchestrates a complete TDD development workflow using specialized SAM agents.

When to Use

Invoke this skill when you want to:

• Transform a PRD into working, tested code
• Follow strict TDD methodology (RED-GREEN-REFACTOR)
• Use autonomous AI agents for development

The Pipeline

Phase 1: Validate PRD

• sam-atlas reviews technical feasibility
• sam-iris validates UX requirements

Phase 2: Generate Stories

• Break PRD into epics and user stories
• Create detailed acceptance criteria

Phase 3: TDD Loop (for each story)

1. RED: sam-titan writes failing tests based on acceptance criteria
2. GREEN: sam-dyna writes minimal code to make tests pass
3. REFACTOR: sam-argus reviews and improves code quality
4. UI: sam-iris reviews layout and fixes alignment (web apps only)
5. CSS: sam-cosmo reviews styling consistency (web apps only)

Phase 4: Complete

• sam-sage generates documentation
• Final review and handoff

Usage

Provide a PRD or feature description to start the autonomous TDD pipeline.
