interview-gen – OpenClaw Skill

---

name: interview-gen description: Generate interview questions from your codebase. Use when hiring developers.

Interview Generator

Generic interview questions tell you nothing. This tool reads your actual codebase and generates questions that test skills relevant to your project.

One command. Zero config. Just works.

Quick Start

npx ai-interview ./src/

What It Does

• Analyzes your codebase for technologies and patterns
• Generates relevant technical questions
• Supports different seniority levels
• Focuses on your actual stack

Usage Examples

# Generate mid-level questions
npx ai-interview ./src/

# Senior-level questions
npx ai-interview ./src/ --level senior --count 15

# Save to file
npx ai-interview ./src/ -o questions.md

# Junior level
npx ai-interview ./src/ --level junior

Best Practices

• Match to role - don't ask senior questions to juniors
• Mix theory and practice - both matter
• Include follow-ups - good questions lead to discussions
• Update periodically - as your stack evolves

When to Use This

• Preparing for candidate interviews
• Standardizing technical screens
• Building question banks for your team
• Onboarding interviewers to your codebase
