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

zen-Babel is a translation app that works entirely offline. All translation is performed on your device—your data is never sent to the cloud. Simple to use: type, paste, or import text from files and images to translate. No ads. No subscriptions. A one-time purchase of 0.99 USD unlocks all features. With language packs from the standard Translate app, you can translate even without mobile data or Wi-Fi. zen-Babel supports text files, Word documents, PDFs, and text extraction from images. Even when connected to the internet, your documents never leave your device. This makes it ideal for translating sensitive business materials and privacy-critical content. Choose between fast, reliable machine translation and more natural AI-powered translation using Apple Intelligence. Use machine translation for speed, or AI translation for more fluent, context-aware results. The app also features Translation Clutch, which highlights the original text and translation side by side. You can quickly compare, understand, and refine translations—especially useful for long texts or fragmented conversations.

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.
