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.

Validate with people who use this workflow before building.

Hypothesis 2

Broaden compatibility with more RAW formats.

Assumption to check: Limited support for various RAW formats can frustrate users.

App Store description

RAWtoHEIC turns the camera RAW files filling up your library into compact HEIC photos — without ever leaving your device. No uploads, no subscriptions, no account. One purchase covers iPhone, iPad, and Mac. KEY FEATURES • Convert from the Photos share sheet. Select your RAWs, tap Share → RAWtoHEIC, hit Start. The app processes in the background and writes the new HEICs back into your Photos library, keeping favorite, album, and date-taken metadata intact. • HDR done right. RAWtoHEIC synthesizes ISO 21496-1 gain maps so converted photos render with full HDR on capable displays while remaining beautifully tone-mapped on SDR ones. ProRAW DNGs keep their original HDR aux data. • Original metadata preserved. EXIF, XMP, ICC, GPS, lens info, capture date — all carried into the HEIC output. Your photos remain searchable, sortable, and faithful. • Optionally remove the originals. After verification, you choose whether to keep both copies or reclaim the space. Deletion is batched and confirmed through the standard Photos prompt. • Live progress everywhere. On iPhone the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island show conversion progress in real time. On Mac, a status-bar item; on iPad, notifications when each batch finishes. • Files & Finder too. Drop loose RAW files from the Files app or Finder onto RAWtoHEIC and they're converted in place — the HEIC lands next to the source. • Wide RAW support. Canon CR3 / CR2, Nikon NEF, Sony ARW, Fuji RAF, Olympus ORF, Panasonic RW2, Adobe DNG (including iPhone ProRAW). HEIC, HEIF, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF can also be re-encoded. PRIVACY FIRST RAWtoHEIC has zero analytics, zero telemetry, zero third-party SDKs, and zero network requests for your photo data. Every byte of every conversion stays on your device. WHO IT'S FOR If you shoot RAW with a mirrorless, DSLR, or your iPhone in ProRAW mode and find your Photos library bloating into tens of gigabytes, this app turns that storage cost into compact HEIC files that Photos, Quick Look, and modern web browsers all read natively — without sacrificing HDR or color accuracy. UNIVERSAL PURCHASE Buy once on any platform, use on all your Apple devices: iPhone, iPad, and Mac. No subscriptions. No ads. No upsells. REQUIREMENTS iOS 18, iPadOS 18, or macOS 15 Sequoia or later.

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.
