Every kit shows you its real pages before you buy. Look inside
Not life-admin kits — field guides for people who build with AI assistants. Same house rules apply: real pages, honest claims, dated sources.
Pick one small app and build it milestone by milestone with an AI assistant — copy-paste prompts, calm debugging, free deployment, and a repeatable recipe for app two.
The habits, settings and free tools developers use to cut AI coding costs — token compounding, caching, model routing, and the cost levers in every major tool.
Each one is 24 pages, First Edition July 2026, and solves one specific problem of building with AI assistants.
Install an agentic CLI on Friday evening and ship one real feature by Sunday — guardrails set, bill kept sane.
Twelve ways AI coding quietly goes wrong, each with a sixty-second check that catches it and the fix.
The one-page spec habit that ends the fix-it loop, so version two stops collapsing.
Brief, supervise, repair — a repeatable discipline for directing AI coding agents.
Better answers from the assistant you already pay for, by managing what it can actually see.
Testing what you built with AI when you can't read the code — evidence before anyone else touches it.
The first ninety days of a live AI-built app: logs, backups, small fixes, and the repair-or-rebuild call.
Databases, logins, keys and environments — the backend half, explained plainly.
One guided evening of plain-language security checks before your app meets the public.
Drafted with AI assistance and then reviewed and curated by a real person who's been through it.
Screens and prices in these guides change fast, so every guide is edition-dated and tells you where to confirm the current state. Savings figures are practitioner measurements, not promises — the guides show you how to measure your own.
