Guided journey from a shipped app that works but feels rough to a product that fits the job, flows without friction, reads clearly, and persuades honestly. Orchestrates nine skills phase by phase - jobs-to-be-done, ux-heuristics, design-everyday-things, refactoring-ui, microinteractions, made-to-stick, influence-psychology, high-perf-browser, steve-jobs-design-review - asking the user questions at every decision point and recording results in the project docs/ folder…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Improve an App The app already ships and works — users, screens, a real flow — but the experience feels rough where it should feel effortless. Across nine phases this journey fixes what users feel, in evidence order: re-anchor on the job, remove friction, polish the look and the moments, sharpen the words, persuade honestly, and end with a review brutal enough to cut. It is interactive (the agent asks before deciding) and resumable (state lives in `docs/`). Code-level causes route out to the code journeys — this pass fixes the product experience. ## Core Principle **Fix what users feel, in evidence order: re-anchor on the job the app is hired for, remove friction before polish, sharpen the words, persuade honestly, and end with a review brutal enough to cut.** A prettier screen on a confusing flow loses users at the same rate — the order of the phases is the whole game. This skill sequences the phases, asks the decision questions, and records what you decide. The nine constituent skills carry the method — invoke them rather than improvising their frameworks. ## Journey Map | Phase | Skill | Question it answers | Artifact | |---|---|---|---| …

How to install
mdr add wondelai/skills/improve-app@sha256:c2843b034b11593cThe line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
