# tdd
## Overview
Use this as the Codex-first TDD workflow. It should enforce red-green-refactor and keep test-first behavior real instead of decorative.
## Inputs
- target feature or file
- optional coverage target
## Codex Workflow
Source references:
- `.claude/commands/tdd.md`
1. write the failing test first
2. confirm the failure
3. implement the minimum change to pass
4. refactor safely
5. re-run broader validation
## Expected Output
- failing test
- minimal fix
- updated test coverage
## Guardrails
- do not write the implementation first
- keep the change minimal until the failing behavior is covered
