Documentation

JITS Builder - Just-In-Time Software 🚀

Build instant mini-apps from voice or text descriptions. Describe what you need, get a working tool deployed in seconds.

What is JITS?

Just-In-Time Software - the idea that you don't need to find or install tools. You describe what you need and it gets built on the spot.

"I need a timer that plays a sound after 25 minutes"

"Make me a tool to split a bill between friends"

"Create a page where I can paste JSON and see it formatted"

Requirements

Cloudflared binary (auto-downloads to /tmp/cloudflared if missing)
Node.js (for serving the app)

How It Works

Describe - Voice or text, explain what you want

Generate - Agent builds a single-file HTML/JS/CSS app

Deploy - Cloudflare tunnel makes it instantly accessible

Use - Get a URL, use your tool, share it

Usage

Just ask naturally:

"Build me a pomodoro timer"
"I need a quick tool to convert CSV to JSON"
"Make a tip calculator"
"Create a color palette generator"

The agent will:

Generate the HTML/JS code

Save to /data/clawd/jits-apps/.html

Serve on a local port

Create Cloudflare tunnel

Return the public URL

App Guidelines

When building JITS apps:

Single file - All HTML, CSS, JS in one file

No dependencies - Use vanilla JS, no external libraries

Mobile-friendly - Responsive design

Dark theme - Looks good, easy on eyes

Self-contained - No backend/API calls needed

Branded - Include "Built with JITS" badge
