Question

You asked an AI assistant to write a JavaScript function that validates an email field and returns true/false. It gave you something that works, but it rejects valid addresses with a '+' in them (like 'alex+test@gmail.com'), which your signup flow needs to accept. Instead of vaguely saying "that's wrong, fix it," write the follow-up prompt you'd send to re-steer it effectively.

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.
