Illustrative example: an invoice app for independent contractors. Your kit is tailored to the app you choose; this is not its generated content.

Feature spec

Goal: Send a clear invoice after finishing a job.

  • Add a client, line items, a due date, and payment instructions.
  • Preview the total before exporting a PDF.
  • Keep an editable draft if export fails.

Screen plan

Invoice editor: Client at the top, editable line items in the middle, total and preview action at the bottom.

States: Empty draft, validation errors beside each field, exporting, and a retry action that preserves the draft.

Differentiate and validate

Hypothesis: Contractors need faster repeat invoices more than more templates.

First experiment: Test duplicating a previous job with five contractors. Watch where they hesitate before expanding the feature set.

The full kit adds a phased build plan, evidence notes, tool prompts, and implementation guidance. It is a plan for your coding agent, not a finished app.

Usage: Mechanics are fair game; never reuse the original name, branding, assets, or verbatim copy.

App Store description

Homebrew Timer is a brew day app for beer brewers – it pushes notifications to your iPhone or iPad when it's time to add ingredients while your wort is boiling. Select from an extensive list of hops, spices, fruits, herbs, and adjuncts included in the app, or easily add your own custom ingredients. Recipes are saved to your iPhone so they are ready to go next time you brew your favorite beer. Create and save recipes. Import recipes via beerXML files from your favorite homebrew recipe development software. Once started, Homebrew Timer will show the time remaining to add each ingredient and will push a notification to your device's screen Notifications work while app is in the background or closed. Notifications will appear on your Apple Watch if it is set up to mirror notifications for Homebrew Timer. Tap the “?” button on any screen for instructions. Let Homebrew Timer keep track of your brew day so you don't have to while you make great beer. Cheers!

Build scope

Plan a focused first version with your coding agent. These are planning assumptions, not a delivery guarantee.

Define the first version

Choose one audience and one core workflow. Use the kit to agree on its screens, data, and acceptance criteria before building.

Set boundaries

Decide which secondary features, integrations, and platform support can wait. Your version does not need to reproduce everything in the original.

Check the hard parts

Validate external services, specialist technology, data access, and ongoing costs for your chosen scope.

A reliable timeline needs an agreed scope and a technical check. Ask your agent to estimate the phases in BUILD_PLAN.md after that review.
