name: interview-solver
description: Solve a coding interview exercise (Coderbyte / LeetCode style) end-to-end. Triggers when the user pastes an interview problem, references one in `examples/`, or asks to "solve" or "resolve" an exercise — especially when they specify a target language like JavaScript, TypeScript, or Java. Runs the same 5-agent pipeline (analyzer → architect → coder → tester → run → evaluator with up to 3 retry iterations) as the `/solve` slash command, calling each worker subagent directly via the Agent tool. Persists the final passing solution to `outputs/<FunctionName>.<ext>`.

# Interview Solver — Skill entry point

When this skill triggers, you are running the **same pipeline** as the `/solve` slash command. The full step-by-step orchestration is the canonical version in `.claude/commands/solve.md`.

## What you do here

1. Use `Read` to load `.claude/commands/solve.md`.
2. Follow its instructions exactly, treating the user's natural-language request (the message that triggered this skill) as the equivalent of `$ARGUMENTS`.
3. The slash command body covers everything: parsing the input (language + problem), invoking each of the 5 worker subagents via the `Agent` tool one at a time, running the sandbox, looping on FAIL up to 3 times, persisting the passing solution to `outputs/`, cleaning up `tmp/`, and returning the final markdown report.

## Rules

- **Do not** run any orchestration logic before reading `.claude/commands/solve.md`. The slash command is the single source of truth.
- **Do not** call the `interview-orchestrator` subagent — there is no longer one. Each of the 5 workers (`interview-analyzer`, `interview-architect`, `interview-coder`, `interview-tester`, `interview-evaluator`) is invoked directly by you via the `Agent` tool, exactly as the slash command describes.
- **Do not** summarize or trim the final report. Relay it verbatim to the user.
- If the user explicitly typed `/solve <args>` instead of triggering this skill via natural language, the slash command runs directly and this skill is not involved.
