Parse standard file format
You need a TypeScript function that parses a well-known, stable file format (say, a standard `.env` file) into a typed object, with a clear edge-case list you can enumerate up front. One engineer launches an agent to 'iterate until it handles all cases'; you think a single well-specified one-shot prompt will nail it. Argue your position and name the one thing that makes a one-shot the right call here.
choose_prompt_strategy(enumerated_cases: list[str], discovered_cases: list[str], format_is_stable: bool) → str[["quoted values","equals in values","comments","blank lines","export prefix","multiline"],["comments","multiline"],true]out"one_shot"[["quoted values","comments"],["multiline"],true]out"agent_loop"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.
Vibe & agentic: describe the solution in plain language (or narrate it) and the coach grades your approach.
