Question

Your agent implemented a feature and also wrote the tests for it, and everything is green — including the tests it authored. Your teammate says 'tests pass, ship it.' You're uneasy because the same model wrote both the code and its checks. How do you calibrate how much to trust this, and what do you actually do before merging?

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.
