Spec Driven Development
MCP Server that facilitates spec-driven development workflows, not just Vibe Coding.
Description from the maker (original English)
Study screens, flows and paywalls from top-earning iOS apps, then build from what wins.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 2 months ago.
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

A builder, not just a researcher.
Agent skills that make AI agents genuinely good at building mobile apps —
studied against the top-grossing apps, finished to a simulator-verified bar.
appllama.io · MCP · X · LinkedIn · Product Hunt
Appllama is the design library of top-grossing mobile apps — their real screens, flows, and UI patterns, with revenue and download context. These skills turn that library into an agent's working method: study every screen of the apps that already win, extract the category's design language, then build screens that hold up next to them.
| Skill | What it does |
|---|---|
appllama-usage | The research engine: how to use the Appllama MCP like a design director — the full tool map, and the playbooks for building an app from scratch, improving an existing screen, and flow & element research. |
appllama-app-design-skill | The build bar: native-feeling Expo / React Native screens — Apple HIG fidelity, semantic colors, native controls, anti-slop discipline, navigation that behaves (push vs replace, sheets and overlays, the one-way doors where back must not exist), a strict motion bar (should it animate at all, springs that carry the finger's velocity, nothing on the JS thread), generated image assets, and a full-motion simulator loop (whole flows recorded and scrubbed frame by frame, not screenshots). |
They are designed as a pair: usage decides what to study, design decides how to build, and both insist the loop only ends in a simulator with a screen you can't fault.
One command, from your project root — works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and 70+ other agents:
npx skills@latest add appllama/appllama-skills
Variations:
# install for specific agents, no prompts
npx skills@latest add appllama/appllama-skills -a claude-code -a cursor -y
npx skills@latest add appllama/appllama-skills -g
appllama-app-design-skill stands on its own — the native-quality build bar, anti-slop discipline, and the full-motion simulator loop work with or without the Appllama MCP connected:
npx skills@latest add appllama/appllama-skills --skill appllama-app-design-skill
(The same --skill flag installs only appllama-usage if you want just the research engine.)
Manual install
Skills are plain directories — copy them into your agent's skills folder (.claude/skills/ per project, ~/.claude/skills/ user-wide, or your harness's equivalent):
git clone https://github.com/appllama/appllama-skills
cp -r appllama-skills/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/
appllama-usage runs on the Appllama MCP; appllama-app-design-skill is sharper with it connected. The endpoint:
https://mcp.appllama.io/mcp
Add it as a custom connector in Claude, Cursor, Codex, or any MCP client and approve the connection with your Appllama account. MCP access is part of Pro; credits reset in full on the 1st of each month. Every call spends one credit — get_credits is always free.
With the MCP connected and the skills installed, ask your agent:
Build me a habit tracker. Study the top-grossing habit apps first and
don't stop until every screen survives the simulator comparison.
Make this screen better. *(paste a screenshot, code, or a "Copy Screen
ID" ref from appllama.io)*
How do the best fitness apps structure onboarding — how long, what does
each step earn, and where does the paywall sit?
Wire up the checkout flow. Decide which screens push, which present as
sheets, and make sure nobody can go back into the paywall after paying.
Review the animations in this app — what should be deleted, what's on the
wrong thread, what's missing velocity — and give me the plan.
