Agentic Feature Delivery from a Requirements Brief AI-Assisted Coding Interview
Use an agentic coding workflow to implement an expiring discount-code feature in a small existing module, then defend the resulting decisions and diff.
1. Problem Statement
Read the requirements, use the agentic assistant to propose the discount-code change, critically review its diff, and explain the final implementation decisions.
2. Live Coding Format
Work in the provided coding workspace while explaining your decisions to the live interviewer. Validation may use inline tests, examples, comments, or a verbal walkthrough.
3. Key Focus Areas
- 1Requirements interpretation
- 2Agent direction
- 3Critical diff review
- 4Boundary and arithmetic correctness
- 5Decision ownership
4. What Strong Candidates Should Demonstrate
- ✓Translate a short requirements document into an explicit contract.
- ✓Review an agent-proposed multi-file change instead of accepting it wholesale.
- ✓Explain boundary and rounding decisions to a human reviewer.
