Question
You're directing an AI agent to build a file-upload endpoint in Node/TypeScript that accepts user images, stores them in object storage, and serves them back. Write the spec that makes it safe the first time. What does a quick 'add an image upload endpoint' prompt get wrong?
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.
Learn the concepts
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.
