Implement Feature (Interview Mode)

Implement a feature with proper requirements clarification. Use this during interviews to ensure edge cases and scope are clarified before writing any code.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS - Feature description from interviewer

Steps

1. Analyze Requirements (NO CODE YET)

   • Parse the feature description
   • Identify ambiguities, edge cases, and unclear scope
   • DO NOT write any code in this step

2. Ask Clarifying Questions (REQUIRED) Use AskUserQuestion tool to clarify:

   • Scope: What's explicitly OUT of scope?
   • Edge cases: How to handle empty states, errors, loading?
   • Validation: What rules apply to user input?
   • Success criteria: What does "done" look like?

   Format questions with specific options, not open-ended. Example:

   Question: "How should we handle the empty state?"
   Options:
   - Show illustration with message
   - Show simple text message
   - Hide the section entirely
   

3. Confirm Understanding Summarize the requirements back to the interviewer:

   • What will be built
   • What edge cases will be handled
   • What is explicitly out of scope

4. Explore Existing Code

   • Search for existing patterns in the codebase
   • Identify reusable components, utilities, or patterns
   • Note the project's architectural conventions

5. Plan Implementation Create a brief implementation plan:

   • Files to create/modify
   • Existing components to reuse
   • Architecture patterns to follow

6. Implement

   • Follow project architecture patterns
   • Reuse existing components where possible
   • Add strings to res/values/strings.xml
   • Handle the edge cases identified in step 2

7. Verify

   • Run the build command (e.g., ./gradlew assembleDebug)
   • Confirm all edge cases from step 2 are addressed
