Illustrative example: an invoice app for independent contractors. Your kit is tailored to the app you choose; this is not its generated content.
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.

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.
