Question

You prompted an AI agent to 'build an infinite-scroll image gallery in React,' and it shipped a clean, working component that loads beautifully on your office laptop and fiber connection. Before this ships to a global consumer app, what did the happy-path build almost certainly skip, and how would you direct the agent to fix it?

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.
