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

Tailscode turns your iPhone into the remote control for the coding agents already running on your machines. Send a prompt from anywhere, pocket your phone, and watch the turn finish on your Lock Screen. It connects point-to-point over your own Tailscale network. No relay servers, no account, no analytics, no middleman reading your code. WORKS WITH YOUR AGENTS • opencode — connect straight to opencode serve and drive any provider you have configured. • Claude Code — via claude-bridge, the open-source companion server that turns Claude Code into structured streaming sessions backed by your subscription. A LIVE, NATIVE TRANSCRIPT • Real-time streaming with collapsible thinking and tool-activity groups. • Syntax-highlighted code blocks with one-tap, byte-exact copy. • Inline permission approvals — Allow once, Always, or Deny without leaving the chat. • Agent questions rendered as tappable option cards. • Steer mid-turn: queue a follow-up while the agent works, edit it before it lands, or stop the turn server-side. • Slash-command palette, per-message model and reasoning-effort overrides, conversation forking, session cost meters. YOUR LOCK SCREEN IS THE STATUS BOARD • A Live Activity per session: phase, elapsed time, and tool counts in real time — thinking, running a tool, writing, or awaiting your approval. • Approval requests alert you; finished turns linger with the outcome. • Tap to deep-link into the exact chat. Updates arrive by push even while the app is suspended. BUILT FOR MULTIPLE MACHINES • One session list across all your servers, grouped by machine, with live status. • Tailnet discovery: paste a Tailscale API token and Tailscode finds the agent servers on your devices. • Server-side file browser to start a chat in any project directory. • Health checks, auto-reconnect, offline banners. • Live usage gauges: Claude plan limits, Grok quotas, opencode cost estimates. NATIVE TO THE CORE • Programmatic UIKit, Swift 6, zero web views. Liquid Glass on iOS 26. • Dark mode, Dynamic Type, haptics. • Open source under GPL-3.0 — the app, the engine, and the bridge. FREE, WITH AN HONEST PRO The free app is the complete core: one server, full chat, permissions, attachments, models, forking, and Live Activities. Tailscode Pro — a one-time purchase, no subscription — adds multiple saved servers, concurrent Live Activities, and a supporter badge. TRY IT BEFORE YOU WIRE ANYTHING A built-in demo lets you explore every screen with sample sessions — no server needed. REQUIREMENTS A computer on your Tailscale network (free for personal use) running opencode or Claude Code via claude-bridge. Tailscode is independent open-source software: not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic, Tailscale Inc., or the opencode project.

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.
