Workflow Patterns

A structured TDD workflow that enforces quality gates at every step. It walks you through the full red-green-refactor cycle with specific git commit patterns, coverage checks, and phase-based checkpoints. The real value is in the verification protocol that blocks progress until tests pass, coverage hits 80%, and you get manual approval at phase boundaries. Creates detailed git notes for traceability and maintains a living plan.md with commit SHAs. If you've ever had a project spiral into technical debt because you skipped testing or rushed past quality checks, this enforces the discipline to do it right.
