Question

You're using an AI agent to generate a parser for a proprietary telecom signaling protocol (a vendor extension of Diameter) that exists only in a 200-page PDF spec and a handful of internal example captures. Generic prompts produce parsers that match the *standard* Diameter layout and silently mis-handle your vendor's extension AVPs. How do you supply context so the agent builds the right parser, and what's the core risk?

What a strong answer looks like

Treat the AI’s output as a draft to verify, not an answer to trust. Name the specific flaw and the input that triggers it, say how you’d catch it — tests, edge cases, reading critically — and how you’d re-prompt or decompose to get it right.

Describe your solution

Vibe coding: describe the solution in plain language (or narrate it) and the coach grades your approach. Generating runnable code from your description is coming next.

Run or narrate your approach, then ask the coach.
