TDD Guard is a Claude Code plugin that automatically enforces test-driven development by intercepting agent actions via hooks and blocking violations like implementing without failing tests or over-implementing. It is configurable with custom rules, lint integration, and selectable validation models, and is now in maintenance mode in favor of its successor Probity.

Use cases

  • enforce tdd when coding with claude code
  • stop the ai agent from writing code without failing tests first
  • block over-implementation beyond current test requirements
  • integrate linting into agent-driven refactoring
  • customize tdd validation rules for my workflow
  • keep ai coding sessions following test-first discipline

When to choose

  • you use Claude Code and want automated TDD enforcement
  • you want hooks that block TDD violations with explanations
  • you need configurable validation rules and lint integration for agent coding

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project - the successor Probity supports more agents and is recommended
  • you do not use Claude Code or an LLM coding agent
  • you do not follow test-driven development
  • your test framework is not among the supported ones
