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.

Assumption to check: Cluttered interface

Validate with people who use this workflow before building.

Hypothesis 3

Allow users to customize alert settings based on preferences.

Assumption to check: Limited alerts customization

Validate with people who use this workflow before building.

Hypothesis 4

App Store description

Hail Recon is the mobile hail reconnaissance companion app for your Interactive Hail Maps subscription. Features include: Forensic Level Hail Maps - Radar accurate hail swaths allow you to pinpoint where the hail fell in ten highly accurate levels, ranging from ½” to over 3” hail in ¼” increments. - Location indicator lets you see exactly where you are in relationship to the hail swath. - Hail Finder allows you to find hail storms based on map location - just zoom to any specific location and tap “Find Hail in Current Map”. - On-the-ground hail reports confirms hail size and intensity with storm spotter measured hail hitting the ground. - View road map, satellite, and hybrid view by tapping the button at the bottom right corner of the map, then select one of the three map modes: Standard; Satellite; and Hybrid. Address Markers - Hail Recon makes it easy to take notes while you are in the field. - View where you’ve already canvassed, and where you’ve not yet been. - Drop a marker at your current location, or press the map for a second and it will drop there. - Indicate damage severity, hail size, wind damage and comments. - Drop a marker at a prospecting location and tap to get driving directions. - Find any address - tap the button at the bottom-right corner of the map screen to enter an address to find, and Hail Recon will drop a marker at that address on the map. - Generate, view, and email a comprehensive hail impact report based on any of your address markers. - Review your address markers on the app or on the full screen maps. - Your address markers are private to your account and cannot be seen by anyone else. Push Notification Hail Alerts - Alerts play different sounds for small, medium, and large hail reports. - Each account may have any number of devices subscribed to your hail alerts - just sign in on the device once, and you’re set! - Pause your alerts anytime with just a tap! - Integrates with your Interactive Hail Maps subscription for access to all historical storm dates (over four years) Keywords: hail, hail map, hail reports, storm reports

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.
