Can I vibecode Drafts Pro?

// one session, and a personal version you can actually use

The core loop is small enough for a capable coding agent to produce a useful local version in one sitting. For Drafts Pro, capture text instantly, run reusable transformations, and file the result into local destinations. The hard boundary is its iphone and mac capture speed, action directory, and apple automation depth, plus polish, integrations, and proprietary language models.

The prompt

One session with a coding agent and your version runs.

One-shot prompt EN
Build a personal replacement for Drafts Pro in an empty repository.
Use Tauri 2, React, TypeScript, SQLite, and a small Rust filesystem layer; do not offer alternative stacks.
The core loop is: capture text instantly, run reusable transformations with a visible diff, and file the result into local destinations without uploading the document.
Make the first run work locally with one documented command.
Store all user data locally by default and make export straightforward.
Put secrets in .env, ship .env.example, and never commit credentials.
Create a three-pane editor with source text, suggestion list, and accepted-result preview.
Implement deterministic checks for repeated words, sentence length, passive constructions, and typography.
Add an optional API-backed rewrite action that sends only the selected passage.
Show every change as an accept-or-reject diff and support undo.
Import and export .txt and .md while preserving headings and lists.
Persist user rules, ignored terms, and recent documents in SQLite.
Include clear empty, loading, success, and recoverable error states.
Add input validation, safe filenames, and graceful handling of unavailable APIs.
Write focused tests for the core transformation and one end-to-end happy path.
Create a README with setup, architecture, permissions, data location, and backup steps.
Do not add accounts, billing, telemetry, analytics, or a hosted control plane.
Deliberately leave out a browser extension.
Deliberately leave out Office or Google Docs plugins.
Deliberately leave out collaborative editing and cloud sync.
Finish by running the tests and listing the exact commands used.

What you lose

  • its iPhone and Mac capture speed, action directory, and Apple automation depth
  • cross-device sync
  • large proprietary style models
  • browser and office-suite extensions
  • team style guides

Why people still pay

People still pay for Drafts Pro because the paid tool is already present everywhere they write and its suggestions have been tuned across millions of documents. The recurring cost buys model quality, extension compatibility, dictionaries, releases, and sync, not just the visible interface.
