Tests whose assertion is recomputed the way the code computes it pass by construction and give zero confidence. Add it as a peer of the existing implementation-coupling anti-pattern: a Philosophy principle, a per-cycle checklist gate, and a BAD/GOOD example pair in tests.md. Includes a patch changeset.

Add the **tautological test** anti-pattern to the `tdd` skill. Tests whose assertion is recomputed the way the code computes it pass by construction and give zero confidence — distinct from the implementation-coupling anti-pattern already covered. Added as a peer at the same three sites: a Philosophy principle (expected values must come from an independent source of truth), a per-cycle checklist gate, and a BAD/GOOD example pair in `tests.md`.
