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

Noosphere is a platform connecting audiences directly to trusted top reporters around the world in a new, innovative way. We deliver original, human field reporting and give subscribers direct access to the journalists behind those stories. Ask them questions and they respond to you with text, audio or video. Explore the app without subscribing, first month free of charge and cancel anytime. Noosphere exists to solve a growing crisis of trust. Billionaire agendas, AI-generated content, clickbait, opinion presented as fact and algorithm-driven feeds have made it increasingly difficult to discern what is real. Noosphere creates a trusted environment where every story is reported by a verified journalist (no AI content) and grounded in first-hand, eyewitness experience and deep expertise. Our journalists cover the most critical topics, the conflict zones, and the otherwise unseen, as history is unfolding. They bear witness and report with authenticity. Their stories, no middle man. A beautiful, intuitive design includes original Articles and Briefs straight from the source. Each reporter’s bio is accessible and transparent. With real, human-produced information, you are better informed in an increasingly complex world.

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.
