TDD Guard v1.0.0

First Stable Release

TDD Guard v1.0.0 is here - our first stable release, with over 1,000 GitHub stars and 15,000 npm downloads!

What's Changed

Major Improvements

Claude Code SDK as Default

• TDD Guard now uses the Claude Code SDK by default, working immediately after installation without any configuration

New Features

Go Language Support

• Support for Go projects with golangci-lint integration for automated refactoring
• Thanks to @sQVe and @wizzomafizzo for their contributions

Model Selection

• Choose between faster or more capable models based on your needs
• See Validation Model Configuration for details

Homebrew Installation

• Install via Homebrew: brew install tdd-guard

Configuration Updates

• Updated configuration system: VALIDATION_CLIENT replaces MODEL_TYPE
• Existing configurations continue to work, but we recommend updating
• Migration guide available: Configuration Migration

Maintenance

• All dependencies updated to latest versions
• Improved test infrastructure and error handling
• Enhanced documentation and examples

Installation

# npm
npm install -g tdd-guard@1.0.0

Migration from Previous Versions

If you're upgrading from v0.x, please review the Configuration Migration Guide. We recommend updating to the new configuration format for access to all features.

Thank You

Thank you to everyone who has contributed, shared ideas, provided feedback, spread the word, and shown enthusiasm for this project. I couldn't have done this without you and I can't wait to see where TDD Guard goes from here.

Full Changelog

v0.11.0...v1.0.0

tdd-guard-vitest v0.1.4

What's Changed

New Features

• Capture unhandled errors from test environment
• Handle import errors as failed tests for better TDD enforcement

Improvements

• Module-level import errors now create synthetic failed tests instead of being reported as unhandled errors
• Better error handling for test environments with import issues

Installation

npm install --save-dev tdd-guard-vitest@0.1.4

Full Changelog

vitest-v0.1.3...vitest-v0.1.4

TDD Guard v0.11.0

What's Changed

Improvements

• Reverted TDD validation prompts to their previous state, which were developed and refined through 500+ hours of real-world programming and dog-fooding
• The newer simplified prompts, while cleaner in structure, were overly strict about the TDD cycle in ways that became counter-productive, particularly when removing code or performing refactoring operations
• The previous prompts contain crucial edge cases and pragmatic exceptions discovered through extensive usage that make them more effective at enforcing TDD discipline while still allowing productive development

Important Upgrade Note

After upgrading, delete your custom instructions file at .claude/tdd-guard/data/instructions.md to use the improved default instructions. You can always recreate custom instructions later if needed.
