🎤 Interview Mode Redesign

You're right - the current per-question submit is clunky. Here's the improved design:

❌ Current Problems

  • "Submit Answer" after each question sends individual prompts
  • No context linkage - each answer is disconnected
  • "Generate Implementation Plan" is vague - doesn't include answers
  • Kontask ID isn't passed back to Claude

✅ New Design: Batch JSON Collection

1. Client-Side Answer Collection

  • Remove individual "Submit Answer" buttons
  • Each question locks in answer on selection (visual feedback)
  • Store all answers in JavaScript object
  • Progress bar updates as user answers

2. Batch Submission ("Ready to Build" button)

{
  "type": "interview_response",
  "kontaskId": "8a251a19-5dc0-4bf4-981a-5f171b800a55",
  "topic": "User Authentication Feature",
  "description": "Let's design the authentication system",
  "answers": [
    { "questionId": "auth-type", "question": "What type...", "answer": "JWT with email/password" },
    { "questionId": "session-duration", "question": "How long...", "answer": "24 hours" },
    { "questionId": "mfa-support", "question": "Do you need...", "answer": "Yes, optional" },
    { "questionId": "additional-notes", "question": "Any additional...", "answer": "Need RBAC" }
  ]
}

3. Intelligent Prompt Builder

Instead of raw JSON, builds a natural prompt:

Interview Complete: User Authentication Feature
[Kontask: 8a251a19-5dc0-4bf4-981a-5f171b800a55]

Design decisions:
• Authentication: JWT with email/password
• Session duration: 24 hours (balanced)
• MFA: Yes, optional for users
• Additional: Need RBAC support

Please create an implementation plan based on these choices.

🎯 UI Flow

Step 1User clicks through questions, selecting/typing answers
Step 2Each selection shows ✓ and locks (can edit by clicking)
Step 3Progress bar fills: 3/4 answered
Step 4When all answered: "🚀 Ready to Build" button appears
Step 5Click sends consolidated prompt → Claude creates plan

🔗 Context Linkage

The prompt includes:

  • kontaskId - Claude can reference/update the interview kontask
  • topic - Feature being designed
  • All Q&A pairs - Full context in one message
  • Action request - "Create implementation plan"

🚧 Implementation Changes

  1. Remove submitInterviewAnswer() per-question
  2. Add collectInterviewAnswers() - stores in local object
  3. Add submitInterviewBatch() - builds intelligent prompt
  4. Update CSS for "locked" answer state (green checkmark, editable)
  5. Change button from "Submit Answer" → selection-based locking
