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

ToneOut Radio brings the radio scanner you run at home or the station to your iPhone — Remote Scanner Control, Live audio, Searchable Transcripts, and Push Alerts on what's actually being said. ToneOut Radio represents a step-function change on how you listen to your scanner, and makes it easy to know whats going on around you at a glance. PLEASE READ FIRST — THIS IS A COMPANION APP ToneOut does not work on its own. To use it you need: • A ToneOut server you run yourself (self-hosted via Docker), connected to a compatible Uniden scanner (Currently Supported: SDS200) • An active, paid ToneOut subscription The app can be downloaded by anyone, but with no server to connect to it has nothing to show. Start a free trial and set up a server at tone-out.app. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Listen live — stream your scanner's audio with lock-screen controls and AirPlay to compatible audio and video devices • Virtual faceplate — see the radio's live display and control it remotely • One-tap favorites — jump straight to the channels you care about • Read & search transcripts — every transmission is transcribed by on-device AI on your server and is fully searchable by text - never miss an incident • Scrub the timeline — replay any moment of the day; ToneOut groups transmissions into conversations so you hear the whole exchange, not a single clip • Alerts that matter — get notified the instant a spoken keyword, street name, unit, or two-tone fire page hits the air — not just when a channel goes active • Share & cast — Share a transmission to iMessage as a video clip, or AirPlay the live display and transcripts to your TV BUILT FOR PUBLIC SAFETY — WORKS FOR EVERYTHING ToneOut shines for fire, EMS, and law-enforcement monitoring, but it works for any radio traffic you follow: aviation, railroad, marine, NOAA weather, and more. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your audio, recordings, and transcripts live on the server you control and are never sent to the cloud. The app simply connects to your server. REQUIREMENTS • Your own ToneOut server (self-hosted, Docker) + a compatible Uniden scanner • An active, paid ToneOut subscription Learn more at tone-out.app.

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.
