# Build a project with your coding agent

**Edition:** 2026-09-06-draft-01. Prepared by Legion Orpheus. These are instructions for building applications with your coding agent; the example applications have not been built as part of this collection.

Choose something you would enjoy using. The project brief describes what to make. The shared launch package helps your agent set up the work, use the supplied skills, and build it with you.

## Inspect first

Give this package and your chosen project to a fresh web-AI conversation that can read documents but has no access to your computer, private files, or connected accounts. Ask it to follow [Inspect the instructions](shared/inspect.md). Include the linked files, not just this page.

Read its explanation of what the instructions would do. When you are ready, give your coding agent the same inspected edition and ask it to build your chosen project. Keep the downloaded files together so the links continue to work. A versioned download or a fixed repository revision makes it easier to keep inspection and building on the same edition.

The teaching and documents are free. Your computer, coding-agent plan, and any services you choose have their own requirements. Your agent will explain the ones relevant to your project.

## Choose an application type

- [Installable web apps](pwa/README.md)
- [Native desktop applications](desktop/README.md)
- [Browser extensions](browser-extensions/README.md)
- [Extensions inside existing applications](app-extensions/README.md)
- [Shared web applications](shared-web/README.md)
- [Native phone applications](native-phone/README.md)
- [Background automation and services](background-services/README.md)
- [Applications with AI operators](ai-apps/README.md)
- [Connected systems](connected-systems/README.md)
- [Tools, skills, and plugins for your agent](agent-capabilities/README.md)

The five reviewed starting examples are the [merge-drop game](pwa/physics-merge-game.md), [Excel transfer](app-extensions/excel-workbook-transfer.md), [photo-report desk](desktop/ai-photo-report-desk.md), [overnight researcher](background-services/overnight-researcher.md), and [remote coding-agent chat](native-phone/coding-agent-in-your-pocket.md).

## The shared package

These are the complete shared instructions:

- [Launch the project](shared/launch.md)
- [Help the person learn through building](shared/learn-as-you-build.md)
- [Skill inventory and installation](shared/skills.md), including every supplied skill and supporting reference
- [Inspect the instructions](shared/inspect.md), for the read-only inspection before a build

For a build, the coding agent reads the selected project brief and follows the launch document. Other project briefs are separate choices unless the selected project identifies one as its foundation. Authoring and review records are editorial history, not additional build instructions.
