Stalk My Interviewer

Deploy parallel TinyFish agents to research an interviewer across LinkedIn, GitHub, Twitter/X, news, and conference platforms — then synthesize a structured prep report so you walk in knowing exactly who you're talking to.

Pre-flight Check (REQUIRED)

Before making any TinyFish call, always run BOTH checks:

1. CLI installed?

which tinyfish && tinyfish --version || echo "TINYFISH_CLI_NOT_INSTALLED"

If not installed, stop and tell the user:

Install the TinyFish CLI: npm install -g @tiny-fish/cli

2. Authenticated?

tinyfish auth status

If not authenticated, stop and tell the user:

You need a TinyFish API key. Get one at: https://agent.tinyfish.ai/api-keys

Then authenticate:

tinyfish auth login

Do NOT proceed until both checks pass.

Step 1 — Gather inputs

You need:

• Interviewer's full name — e.g. "Sarah Chen"
• Company — e.g. "Stripe", "Anthropic", "Linear"
• Role you're interviewing for (optional but improves output) — e.g. "Senior Software Engineer"

If any are missing, ask before proceeding. If the name is very common (e.g. "John Smith"), ask for company and role to disambiguate before searching.

Step 2 — Parallel research

Fire all agents simultaneously. Every agent searches a different surface — run them all at once using & + wait.
