Week 108 — Final review

Capstone, portfolio, and interview readiness · Read / diagram

Hard

Phase 10 — Capstone, portfolio, and interview readiness

Overview

Portfolio, retrospective, job plan

Mode this week: read_diagram. Match the work to that mode (operating model): implement ships running code; read/diagram ships a doc; deploy/benchmark ships a measured run. Personal dates, checkboxes, and the RPG layer stay in a learner journal.

Core deliverable

Final portfolio + 30-day plan

• Gate 10 this week: Completed capstone, published portfolio, passed mock interviews, behavioral stories, 30-day job-search plan

Optional depth

Package the strongest work from this program as a portfolio release with a benchmark, explanation, and retrospective.

Week loop (from the cookiecutter journal)

• Mon — Theory: Portfolio, retrospective, job plan
• Tue — Build: start the core deliverable above
• Wed — Systems / papers: one paper or system note (see below if this week has assigned reading)
• Thu — Eval / interview: write the four evidence items
• Fri — Algorithmic Forge: Capstone 1 required; Capstone 2 optional at Week 108 (2-3 hr; Boss fights)

Forge theme: Mo's algorithm, capstone integration, tree forensics

Leetcode Darbar (parallel)

This week's band (103-108): Mixed timed sets and mock interviews. Production connection: Mo's traces, Euler/DSU boss, portfolio defense.

Standard: one aligned problem. Auror: the five-slot queue on the Darbar page. Tracker stays in the learner journal.

Evidence contract

Every core week records all four (cookiecutter journal/weeks/week_108.md):

1. Code / implementation (or the design artifact on a writing week)
2. Benchmark / result
3. Design doc / technical explanation
4. Retrospective / learning note (Sailboat: destination, wind, anchor, rocks, heading)
