Question

An AI agent solved a date-handling bug in your TypeScript project by adding a dependency you've never heard of, `@temporal-utils/parse`, and the build is green. The fix is two lines and looks elegant. Before you merge a new third-party package the agent chose, how do you verify it's safe and appropriate?

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.
