README

[Appllama]

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 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.

The skills

SkillWhat it does
appllama-usageThe 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-skillThe 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.

Install

One command, from your project root — works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and 70+ other agents:

bash
npx skills@latest add appllama/appllama-skills

Variations:

bash
# install for specific agents, no promptsnpx skills@latest add appllama/appllama-skills -a claude-code -a cursor -y
# install user-wide instead of per-projectnpx skills@latest add appllama/appllama-skills -g

Only want the app design skill?

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:

bash
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):

bash
git clone https://github.com/appllama/appllama-skillscp -r appllama-skills/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/

Connect the Appllama MCP

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.

Try it

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.
