Interview Task

This skill is a complete cookbook for creating an interview task for a candidate. It includes steps to create the necessary materials. The idea is to create a private repository for the candidate, and have an LLM agent draft a PR for a given task. The candidate will then be asked to review the PR, and provide feedback on it. This will allow us to evaluate the candidate's ability to understand the codebase, provide constructive feedback and good insights to get the task to the finish line.

Input

If not provided in the invocation prompt, you should ask the user for the following information:

  • Candidate's name
  • A prompt describing the PR that the LLM agent should draft. This should be a clear and concise description of the task that the candidate will be asked to review.

Step 1: fork the Polar repository to a private GitHub repository dedicated to the candidate

Run the script provided in this skill .claude/skills/interview-task/scripts/fork-repository with the candidate's name as an argument. This will create a private repository for the candidate.

The name of the candidate should be slugified (lowercase, ASCII, spaces replaced with hyphens) to be used in the repository name.
