The press behind the shop
Interview Book Agent ingests the canonical corpus, clusters concepts into mental models, and composes six-layer chapters with inline drills. Not a summary — a distillation.
PDFs and docs from Huyen, Bouchard, LangChain, Anthropic — the modern AI engineering canon.
Concepts cluster into mental models. Six layers per chapter: picture, intuition, mechanism, example, interview, connections.
Inline questions per chapter plus a cross-cutting appendix for rapid-fire rehearsal.
