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

GedFamilies enables a GEDCOM file to be easily transferred to your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad, enabling it to be viewed and edited wherever you are. GedFamilies supports the following functionality: - GEDCOM 5.5.1 plus support for many custom tags - ASCII, ANSI, ANSEL, UTF-8 character sets - Multiple family files - New family files can be created from scratch - Family View, Pedigree View, Descendant View and Timeline - Index, searchable by Given Name, Surname or ID - Relationships - Events and facts - Sources - Locations and Addresses, with geolocation via Maps - Alternate Names - Pictures, including the ability to add pictures from camera or photo album - Documents - Audio files - Portrait and Landscape mode on all views - Full screen support on the iPad GedFamilies uses a highly efficient database implementation, allowing very large family files to be supported. GedFamilies requires access to a Wi-Fi network or use of iTunes via a USB connection in order to transfer family files between your device and your PC. USB transfer uses iTunes File Sharing which requires your device to be running iOS 3.2 or above. GedFamilies requires a companion program running on the PC to transfer family files to and from the iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. This program, GedFamilies Sync, can be downloaded free of charge from www.telgen.co.uk/gedfamilies. A sample family file is included. Support and exchange of information with other users is available via the user forum at www.telgen.co.uk/gedfamilies/forum.

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.
