How the Blueprint kit works

Press play and it runs like a video, or tap any segment of the bar to jump to that part. Want to see an example session instead? Watch an example session.

What it isSix folders, one per stage

You don't install it. You follow it.

"Build me an app" makes the AI guess.

Six stages. Each one produces a document.

3

4

Every stage is the same three moves.

Open the stage's prompt.md

The summary at the bottom is what keeps the AI from forgetting.

Build one small slice at a time. You test it, you check it off.

  • ✓M1-S1 Project and design tokens
  • ✓M1-S2 Quote page, sample data
  • ✓M2-S1 Database and access rules
  • M2-S2 Real menu on the quote page in progress

Run the security gate before launch.

  • ✓No secret keys in the page source
  • ✓A second account can't see the first account's data
  • ✓Access rules on for every table
  • ✓Prices decided on the server
  • ✓AI keys server-side, with usage limits

Is it a plugin? The kit isn't. The Engine is.

The kit: copy and paste

Works in any AI. Tested with Claude; other AI chats not tested yet.

  • 1-interrogate to 6-ship
  • one prompt.md in each
  • example

The Engine: the plugin

Claude only. Install once, then just ask.

  • Claude app, Desktop, Cowork, Code
  • runs each stage itself
  • sold separately

Your first 30 minutes

  1. Open 00-START-HERE.md and skim the table
  2. Open 1-interrogate/prompt.md
  3. Copy the prompt into Claude, fill in your idea
  4. Answer its questions and read the verdict
  5. Save the summary as IDEA.md, then open 2-spec

What's in the zip

The folders are numbered to match the six stages. Open one to see what it's for and when you use it.

00-START-HERE.mdThe map of the whole kit

Read first

One page with the only rule you need, a table of all six stages (what to open, where to paste it, what to save), and what your project folder looks like when you're done.

1-interrogate/ to 6-ship/One folder per stage, used in order

The main kit

Every stage folder has one prompt.md. The top of it tells you when to use it, where to paste it, what to paste with it, and what to save.

  • 1-interrogate: pressure-tests the idea. You save IDEA.md
  • 2-spec: features, screens, data, and who can see what. You save SPEC.md
  • 3-architect: the stack, data rules and where secrets live. You save ARCHITECTURE.md
  • 4-design: three looks to choose from, then your rules. You save DESIGN.md
  • 5-build: the build plan and the AI's standing orders. You save PLAN.md and AGENTS.md
  • 6-ship: the security gate. You save SECURITY.md
Helper filesOnly open these when you need them

As needed

  • 0-existing-app/prompt.md: use instead of stage 1 if your app is already built
  • 4-design/DESIGN-template.md: stage 4 asks you to paste it
  • 4-design/fix-a-generic-screen.md: a screen looks AI-made
  • 5-build/AGENTS-template.md: right after you save PLAN.md
  • 5-build/where-AGENTS-goes.md: setting up Lovable, Base44, Cursor, Claude Code and others
  • 5-build/every-session.md: the start and end of every build session
  • 5-build/when-something-breaks.md: a fix fails twice
  • 6-ship/launch-checklist.md: the security gate says ship
skills/Optional Claude helpers

Optional, set up once

The same workflows packaged as Claude Skills. Upload each folder in Claude's settings (or copy them into Claude Code's skills folder), and Claude runs the process when you ask something like "help me plan my app."

The kit's Claude Skills are optional helpers you call on in chat; the Blueprint Engine runs the whole process in your project and, in Claude Code and Cowork, saves every document for you.

example/A finished example to copy from

Whenever you wonder what "good" looks like

TruckLine, a taco truck pre-order app taken through all six stages, including a real security finding. Plus QuoteKit, a shorter example for a mobile detailer.
