Question

A telecom backend must implement a regulator-mandated lawful-intercept / data-retention handler with exact, audited semantics defined in a compliance document. A PM asks why you won't just let the agent 'build it from the spec doc' like it did for the last CRUD feature. Make the case for when AI is the wrong primary tool here — and where, if anywhere, it still helps.

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.
