In plain English

LeetCode Helper is a skill definition for Codex (an AI coding agent) designed to help with coding interview practice problems from LeetCode. When you give it a problem statement, the skill instructs the agent to walk through the problem systematically: first explaining it in plain language, then proposing an efficient algorithm, writing clean Python code, explaining the code line by line, running through an example step by step, and finishing with an analysis of how fast and how memory-efficient the solution is, plus any important edge cases to consider. You would use this if you are preparing for software engineering job interviews and want AI-assisted help understanding and solving algorithm problems in a structured, educational way.
