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

Stella is an AI-powered meal planner built for real households — where people can use their recipes, diets, and preferences without having to spend hours on Sunday building a recipe and grocery list. Chat with Stella like a smart sous chef: • "What should we make this week?" • "Plan four weeknight meals that take under 30 minutes." • "We have chicken, spinach, and leftover rice — what's for dinner?" Stella knows your saved recipes, your household size, your dietary preferences, and what's in your pantry. She builds the plan — you adjust it however you want. KEY FEATURES → AI meal planning Tell Stella what you want (or don't want) this week and she drafts a plan that respects your diet, your household size, and how often you actually cook. Adjust any day with a tap. → One smart grocery list Every recipe's ingredients get aggregated into one list, categorized by aisle and split into bulk runs versus weekly-fresh stores. Items already in your pantry are flagged so you don't double-buy. → Save any recipe, from anywhere Paste a URL, snap a photo, screenshot an Instagram or TikTok post, upload a PDF cookbook page. Stella parses it into a clean recipe card with ingredients, instructions, and nutrition estimates. → Leftovers that actually get eaten After a meal, a quick tap saves the leftovers. When you plan tomorrow with Stella, she'll suggest using them up before they expire — no food wasted. → Household sharing Invite your partner or roommates. Shared recipes, shared meal plans, shared grocery list. Per-member permissions for who can edit what. → Works with your kitchen Barcode scanning for pantry items. Receipt upload for post-shop pantry sync. WHO STELLA IS FOR • Households of 2–6 juggling multiple people's schedules and preferences • Anyone tired of "what's for dinner?" after a long day • Meal planners who want an assistant, not another spreadsheet • People who want to waste less food and shop with less stress and save on their grocery budget PRICING 7-day free trial. After that: • Base — $9.99/month or $79.99/year (save 33%) — full planning, chat, imports, and grocery tools • Lorin's Go To Recipes — $4.99 one-time — a curated pack of tested family recipes • More Recipe Packs to Come!

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.
