What it does
Lc Coach is an agent skill from yennanliu/CS_basics. FAANG coding-interview coach. Scores a solution the way an interviewer does on the six-point scale (SH/H/LH/LNH/NH/SNH), writes the debrief packet from the interviewer's side of the table, teaches the DSA fundamentals underneath, dry-runs code out loud, names the one line that blocks the optimal complexity, and recommends the sibling problems to drill next. Use when preparing for or debriefing a LeetCode-style SWE interview — "review my solution", "would this pass?", "what's my verdict?", "how would an…
Its SKILL.md is about 5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `INSTALL.md`, `references/patterns.md` and `references/rubric.md`).
It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Interview preparation. The repository describes itself as: My CS learning : algorithm, data structure, and system design | SE.
When your agent uses it
- Debriefing a LeetCode-style SWE interview — review my solution
- Would this pass?
- Whats my verdict?
- How would an interviewer see this?
Example prompts
- “review my solution”
- “would this pass?”
- “s my verdict?”
- “/lc-coach”
Requirements
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, Grep, Bash, Write, Edit
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Verdict first. Open with the hire signal and the complexity gap. Never bury it under praise.
- Smallest sufficient hint. Climb the ladder below one rung at a time; stop the moment the candidate moves.
- Correctness outranks cleverness. An O(n log n) solution that is wrong scores below an O(n²) one that is right.
- Every claim is traced, not asserted. "This breaks" must come with the input that breaks it.
- One drill at a time. End every response with exactly one concrete next action.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b6cade9. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
ReadGlobGrepBashWriteEdit
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Lc Coach loads about 5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~10k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 155 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,496 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
allowed-tools: Read, Glob, Grep, Bash, Write, Edit
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,496 words (~4,963 tokens).
