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

ContinuousReader is a native reading app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone, built around one idea: your reading position should follow you. Close a book on your Mac at midnight; open it on your iPhone in the morning — same book, same paragraph. YOUR PLACE, EVERYWHERE Reading positions, bookmarks, notes, and library metadata sync over iCloud across every Apple device on the same Apple ID — down to the exact paragraph. Book files sync through iCloud Drive. No account, no server but Apple's own. Each device keeps its own font, size, and theme. OPENS WHAT YOU HAVE EPUB, FB2, MOBI, HTML, TXT, RTF, DOC/DOCX (Mac), and their ZIP variants — with chapter extraction, footnotes, encoding detection, and embedded images. A READING EXPERIENCE YOU CONTROL Nine typefaces and 41 themes across five palettes, plus Typewriter and Terminal. Continuous scroll, paged, or two-page spread. Real hyphenation in Latin, Cyrillic, CJK, Arabic, and Greek. Read Aloud with word-by-word highlighting. On-device translation — nothing leaves your device. Reading statistics with shareable reports. YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR WAY Nested folders, color tags, genres, seven-color bookmarks with notes, three view modes, and OPDS catalogs (Standard Ebooks, Project Gutenberg, Feedbooks, or your own). PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No analytics, no telemetry, no tracking, no ads. Your books are plain files in a folder you can copy anywhere. One-time purchase. Universal Purchase across Mac, iPad, and iPhone — buy once, read everywhere. Family Sharing supported.

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.

From the Build Kit assessment.

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.
