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

With this app you can paint the pixels selected by the Munching Squares algorithm in black and white and/or color to make an almost infinite variety of lattices. Munching Squares is a classic computer graphics program mentioned in the celebrated MIT AI Lab memo HAKMEM. It was originally written in a few instructions of machine language for the DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation) PDP-1 Computer equipped with a Type 30 CRT point plotting display. Some more technical detail: Each step by Munching Squares on an NxN square paints N pixels in a pattern that is simplest if toggle switch 0 is on and the rest are off. As long as toggle switch 0 is on, after N steps, all pixels in the square will have been painted in a pattern controlled by the toggle switches. In general, the top left and bottom right quarters of the pattern will be the same as will the top right and bottom left quarters. And this will be true within each quarter, and so on. If toggle switch 0 is off but toggle switch 1 is on, only half the pixels will be painted. If toggle switches 0 and 1 are off but toggle switch 2 is on, only a quarter of the pixels will be painted. And so on.

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.
