 "summary": "Have your agent study a feature in an app, then write and test a version for your codebase.",
 "who": "Solo founder who wants a comparable feature in their product after studying how another app does it",
 "problem": "You know what the feature does but not how to build it, and copying blindly risks missing key details.",
 "outcome": "A working implementation in your project, grounded in what the agent observed in the target app.",
 "steps": [
  "Run npx rea-agents setup and restart your agent.",
  "Ask the agent to investigate the feature in the target app and explain it first.",
  "Ask it to build a version for your project and test it.",
  "Review the code and compare it against the evidence it listed."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Use REA to investigate <feature> in <app> at <path>, show the evidence, then build a version for my project at <project path> and test it. Verify the result matches the behavior it observed, not just a guess.",
