Every CS student has GitHub projects but blanks when an interviewer asks "walk me through this code." GitReady solves this by reading your entire repository and generating personalized interview preparation materials. Built entirely with IBM Bob IDE during the IBM Bob Hackathon, GitReady demonstrates AI-assisted development at its finest. IBM Bob designed the architecture, wrote the code, debugged errors, engineered the prompts, and refined the entire application from concept to submission. How it works: paste any public GitHub repository URL into GitReady. The app clones the repository, reads every code file, manages token limits intelligently with chunking, then sends the full codebase to IBM Watsonx.ai's Granite model for deep analysis. The output is organized into four sections: 10 technical interview questions with detailed answers grounded in your actual code, a plain English explanation suitable for non-technical interviewers and recruiters, specific code weaknesses and technical debt an interviewer might probe, and a compelling one-liner elevator pitch for the project. GitReady was powered by IBM Bob IDE throughout development. Bob analyzed requirements, recommended the Streamlit single-file architecture, implemented the Watsonx.ai Python SDK integration, crafted specialized prompts for the Granite model, and handled all debugging and optimization. All Bob development sessions are documented in the bob_sessions folder in the repository. The result is a tool that every developer with a GitHub portfolio can use before any technical interview.
