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

GCBuddy is the perfect tool for the serious geocacher when solving multi-caches. With this application you can record all found values for A...Z and use them to automatically calculate new waypoint coordinates. The final cache coordinates are also calculated as soon as all required puzzles have been solved and entered. You can also record the exact spot where you parked your car or bike, so you can find it back after caching. FIRST LOOK: To get an idea of the functionality, read the Quick Start Guide on the gcbuddy.com website. List of possibilities: ========================== - Management of multiple caches in a list of downloaded caches - Download from geocaching.com, opencache.uk and other opencaching sites - Prepare a multi-cache at home, also possible on your PC or Mac using a simple web interface. - All images in the description are downloaded: paperless caching! - Navigate to the parking place - Enter answers to questions at each waypoint * Common text calculations like word value * Stack counting * Convert roman numbers - Change the value of an answer and immediately see the effect on a map with waypoints - Waypoints are automatically calculated using the values for A...Z - Location of the final cache is also calculated automatically in this way - Built-in compass/map for navigation to the next waypoint - Overview map with all waypoints - Warning by vibration or sound when you are near the waypoint - Accurately record data at a waypoint with your camera. - Album for each cache with the possibility to view the pictures with the ultra zoom photo viewer. - Notes can be entered before or during the cache - Log directly on geocaching.com after the find if you wish - Find your way back to the car park - Send an e-mail with all the information of a cache as backup or to a friend - Write with one click all cache information in the (online) personal cache note - Restore a cache from a backup e-mail - Protect a cache against changes - Backup/Restore via iCloud Problems/questions/feedback please send an e-mail ([email protected]) so I can answer quickly.

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.
