Find agent skills by outcome

Ask yourself: Would a senior engineer say this is overcomplicated? If yes

simplify.

- If something is unclear

stop. Name what's confusing. Ask.

- If a simpler approach exists

say so. Push back when warranted.

- If multiple interpretations exist

present them - don't pick silently.

- State your assumptions explicitly. If uncertain

ask.

- Interview type: [e.g.

HR screening / Technical / C-level / panel]

- After 8–10 questions

end the interview naturally and tell me: We'll be in touch. Type ANALYZE when you're ready for feedback.

- Mix question types: behavioral (STAR)

technical

Coding & Debugging

- After I answer each question

give a brief 1-line reaction (like a real interviewer would — neutral

5. Utility classes or direct styles for special cases (caps

tabular numbers

- NEVER pair two visually similar fonts (e.g.

two geometric sans-serifs)

2. Base typography variables (--font-body

--font-heading

- MUST use unitless `line-height` values (1.3-1.45)

never px or em

- Bold not italic for headings. Subtle size increases (1.2-1.5x steps

not 2x jumps)

- Paragraph spacing via `margin-bottom` equal to one line-height

no first-line indent for web

Data

- `font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums` on data/number columns

`oldstyle-nums` for prose

- Line length drives breakpoints

not the other way around

- NEVER use `vw` units alone (breaks user zoom

accessibility violation)

- Use `clamp()` for fluid sizing: `clamp(1rem

0.9rem + 0.5vw

- Free quality options: Source Serif
