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

Through a guided 60-day journey, you'll develop greater awareness of your digital habits, strengthen real-world relationships, and reclaim time for the people and activities that matter most. Unlike apps that simply block websites or restrict access, Canary Challenge focuses on intentional technology use. The goal is not less technology—it is better technology habits. FEATURES • Daily guided challenges Build practical habits through short daily exercises designed to improve awareness, boundaries, presence, and connection. • Evening reflections End each day with guided reflections that help reinforce meaningful change. • Human Time tracking Compare your daily device usage against your personal baseline and see how much time you are reclaiming for life beyond the screen. • Accountability groups Join friends, family members, classrooms, organizations, or community groups to complete the challenge together. • Progress tracking Monitor streaks, challenge completion, and long-term growth. • Conversation resources Access tools designed to encourage meaningful conversations and stronger relationships. WHO IS IT FOR? Canary Challenge is designed for parents, families, educators, students, community leaders, and anyone seeking a healthier relationship with technology. OUR PHILOSOPHY Technology is a powerful tool. The goal is not to reject it, but to use it intentionally. Use the tool. Don't let it use you.

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.
