refactor(bin): move non-spec root files into references/ across four skills
grill-with-docs, improve-codebase-architecture, tdd, and triage kept non-spec markdown files at their skill root, in violation of skill-audit's file-structure.md rule (only SKILL.md/README.md belong at the root; everything else lives in scripts/, references/, assets/ or tests/). A root-level file is invisible to the ADR-0020 dangling-reference gate, which only resolves unqualified `references/...` pointers. - Moved and renamed to lowercase-kebab-case under references/: grill-with-docs (ADR-FORMAT.md, CONTEXT-FORMAT.md), improve-codebase-architecture (DEEPENING.md, INTERFACE-DESIGN.md, LANGUAGE.md), tdd (five files, casing was already fine), triage (AGENT-BRIEF.md, OUT-OF-SCOPE.md). - Updated every in-skill link to the new references/ paths, including link text that still showed the old uppercase filenames. - Fixed improve-codebase-architecture/SKILL.md's cross-skill citation of grill-with-docs's two files to the sanctioned possessive form with the references/ segment included. - Updated all four skills' README.md file tables to match. - Regenerated the flat content mirror via scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh --all. Fixes #122. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01PDj6F7SPXzh3FtPN78dZ88

# When to Mock
|
||||
|
||||
Mock at **system boundaries** only:
|
||||
|
||||
- External APIs (payment, email, etc.)
|
||||
- Databases (sometimes - prefer test DB)
|
||||
- Time/randomness
|
||||
- File system (sometimes)
|
||||
|
||||
Don't mock:
|
||||
|
||||
- Your own classes/modules
|
||||
- Internal collaborators
|
||||
- Anything you control
|
||||
|
||||
## Designing for Mockability
|
||||
|
||||
At system boundaries, design interfaces that are easy to mock:
|
||||
|
||||
**1. Use dependency injection**
|
||||
|
||||
Pass external dependencies in rather than creating them internally:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Easy to mock
|
||||
function processPayment(order, paymentClient) {
|
||||
return paymentClient.charge(order.total);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Hard to mock
|
||||
function processPayment(order) {
|
||||
const client = new StripeClient(process.env.STRIPE_KEY);
|
||||
return client.charge(order.total);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**2. Prefer SDK-style interfaces over generic fetchers**
|
||||
|
||||
Create specific functions for each external operation instead of one generic function with conditional logic:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// GOOD: Each function is independently mockable
|
||||
const api = {
|
||||
getUser: (id) => fetch(`/users/${id}`),
|
||||
getOrders: (userId) => fetch(`/users/${userId}/orders`),
|
||||
createOrder: (data) => fetch('/orders', { method: 'POST', body: data }),
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// BAD: Mocking requires conditional logic inside the mock
|
||||
const api = {
|
||||
fetch: (endpoint, options) => fetch(endpoint, options),
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The SDK approach means:
|
||||
- Each mock returns one specific shape
|
||||
- No conditional logic in test setup
|
||||
- Easier to see which endpoints a test exercises
|
||||
- Type safety per endpoint
