Trace a tool call from request to answer
Follow one ticket lookup from tool declaration to answer: what the model proposes, what the application validates and executes, and what the assistant says when the result is unavailable.
Implement a validated, tenant-scoped tool adapter
Implement a get_ticket adapter that validates model-proposed arguments, takes tenant scope from trusted context, and passes a fixture table, then explain how a bounded orchestrator handles timeouts, invalid calls, and parallel lookups.
Choose a fixed workflow or an agent loop
Compare a fixed workflow and an agent loop for a parcel-delivery assistant's rescheduling and stuck-parcel tasks using a pilot's success, cost, and latency figures, then recommend a design per task and say what would change it.
Design an agent with idempotent side effects
Design an agent that closes a ticket and sends one approved closure email safely across duplicate jobs, crashes, timeouts, and concurrent workers, and say exactly what the design can and cannot guarantee.
Threat-model an agent with private data
Threat-model a multi-tenant assistant that reads private documents, keeps conversation summaries, and sends approved notifications, naming where each control is enforced and what risk remains.
Explain how a coding assistant gets context and tools
Explain how a coding assistant assembles its context, which component decides whether each proposed action runs, and why an instruction found inside a file cannot grant itself permission.
Design an agent harness for a team codebase
Design one agent harness for a fictional payroll company's developer machines and its CI agent, covering permissions, sandboxing, extensions, hooks, evaluation, and budgets. Then decide from predeclared rules which configuration rolls out first, where, and with which permissions.
Review a team-built AI automation before launch
Review an office manager's inbox automation step by step after a two-week test, price normal running and a runaway mail loop, and decide what launches, under which conditions, and what, if anything, waits.
