Interview Dev Loop

Interview Dev Loop is an Agent Skill for the workflow we call an "interview implementation loop".

The agent investigates first, asks one multiple-choice clarification question at a time, writes a plan only after material ambiguity is resolved, waits for approval, then runs implementation and review until no P0/P1/P2 findings remain.

The internal Japanese name is インタビュー実装ループ.

This repository is a public, agent-agnostic version of the original interview-plan-implement-review-loop skill. Product-specific repo rules have been generalized, but the core workflow is the same.

What it does

• Investigates code, docs, tests, existing plans, and local instructions before planning.
• Surfaces findings in a fixed shape before asking questions.
• Asks one A/B/C clarification question at a time.
• Writes a durable plan only after material ambiguity is resolved.
• Waits for user approval before implementation.
• Runs development and review as a loop.
• Continues until no unresolved P0/P1/P2 findings remain.

When to use it

Use this for feature work, bug fixes, and product tasks where the request is real but underspecified.

Good fit:

• "Add this integration."
• "Implement this ticket."
• "Build this feature, but ask before making product-scope decisions."
• "Plan first, then implement after approval."

Poor fit:

• Tiny edits where the next action is obvious.
• Pure explanation or research tasks.
• PR-only review loops after a pull request already exists.
• Tasks where the human has already supplied a complete implementation plan.

Install

Codex can use Agent Skills directly, but reusable distribution is best packaged as a plugin.

Add this repository as a plugin marketplace:

codex plugin marketplace add unsu0707/interview-dev-loop

Then install interview-dev-loop from the Codex plugin directory.

For other coding agents, ask the agent you use:

Install the [unsu0707/interview-dev-loop](https://github.com/unsu0707/interview-dev-loop) skill.

Usage

Explicitly invoke the skill when starting a coding task:

Use interview-dev-loop for this task: add support for ...

Or mention it by name in tools that support skill mentions:

$interview-dev-loop Add support for ...

The first useful response should be an investigation summary and, if needed, one clarification question. It should not jump directly into implementation.

Compatibility

This repository follows the open Agent Skills format:

• one directory per skill
• SKILL.md with name and description
• lowercase hyphenated skill name
• optional references/ for progressive disclosure

It is intended for Codex, OpenCode, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible coding agents.
