It's γρήγορη, it was not accepted before but it's added now as a correct sentence. Thanks for the input!
Yes, that's also a good translation. I've added it now.

Είσαι γρήγορο is not accepted. But I could be talking to a παιδί which is neutre...?
Wen talking to someone directly like that, you use his/her natural sex. So you won't say είσαι γρήγορο (on its own) to a girl because κορίτσι is neuter, the same way you won't say είσαι γρήγορος to a woman because άνθρωπος(=human) is masculine. In both cases, because you are talking to a female person you use the feminine γρήγορη. The same thing applies if you are talking to animals. But if you say είσαι γρήγορο κορίτσι to a girl, then γρήγορο is an adjective to the word κορίτσι and has to be in neuter form. The same applies to the example I gave above saying to a woman είσαι γρήγορος άνθρωπος=You are a fast human. To conclude: Είσαι γρήγορο is not correct in this case because it is not followed by a noun that is neuter, and you would have to use your speaker's natural sex.
It's wrong, it doesn't make sense :/ Γρήγορα is an adverb.
That would be more or less like saying “you are quickly”.... perhaps that might mean that you exist in a fast sort of way? A very odd thing to say; “to be” doesn’t usually take adverbs of manner,
