End-to-end app creation from a single description. Five tiers: blank project, guided, templated, fully generated, or feature addition to existing codebase. Routes through PRD, architecture, and Archon campaign with verification at every step.
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
# /create-app — From Description to Verified Application
## Orientation
**Use when:** building a new app from scratch -- full scaffold, design system, and feature set from a single description.
**Don't use when:** adding a feature to an existing app (use /marshal or /archon); generating a single component (use /scaffold).
## Tier Detection
Use when the user wants to create an app, add a feature, or scaffold a project. Classify the input into one of five tiers:
### Tier 1: Blank Project
- Trigger: "create a blank project", "new project", "scaffold"
- Action: Run /scaffold with stack detection. No PRD, no architecture.
### Tier 2: Guided
- Trigger: "I want to build...", "help me create...", description with questions
- Action: /prd → user approves → /architect → user approves → /archon
- Human checkpoints: after PRD, after architecture, before each major phase.
### Tier 3: Templated
- Trigger: Describes a well-known app type ("a todo app", "a blog", "a dashboard with auth")
- Action: Load template PRD if available → /architect with template defaults → /archon
- Template detection: check `.planning/_templates/app-types/` for matching templates.

How to install
mdr add sethgammon/citadel/create-app@sha256:30de1a93eddf65fcThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260611.0f3f8e7, 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.
