Improve App
Guided journey from a shipped app that works but feels rough to a product that fits the job, flows without friction, reads clearly, and persuades honestly. Orchestrates nine skills phase by phase - jobs-to-be-done, ux-heuristics, design-everyday-things, refactoring-ui, microinteractions, made-to-stick, influence-psychology, high-perf-browser, steve-jobs-design-review - asking the user questions at every decision point and recording results in the project docs/ folder (CUSTOMER.md, DESIGN.md, POSITIONING.md, IMPROVE-APP-PLAN.md) so the journey resumes across sessions. Use when the user wants to fix a clunky product, cut UX friction, sharpen in-app copy and prompts, or says ''the app works but feels rough''. Do not use for code, tests, or production hardening - use improve-code-quality (fresh prototype) or remove-technical-debt (aged codebase); no app yet, create-app; needs growth loops, grow-app; marketing-site friction, improve-website. For one framework in isolation, invoke that skill directly.

From the source SKILL.md
The app already ships and works — users, screens, a real flow — but the experience feels rough where it should feel effortless. Across nine phases this journey fixes what users feel, in evidence order: re-anchor on the job, remove friction, polish the look and the moments, sharpen the words, persuade honestly, and end with a review brutal enough to cut. It is interactive (the agent asks before deciding) and resumable (state lives in docs/). Code-level causes route out to the code journeys — this pass fixes the product experience.
What this skill does
Improve App is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the conversion sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/improve-app/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
