What they did

A user vibe coded a Chrome extension with Claude Opus 5.5 that does the writing checks he was paying Grammarly for.

Result (as claimed)

He plans to cancel Grammarly and use his own free extension.

Tools they used

Cost: Claude Opus 5.5: from $4 in / $20 out per 1M tokens.

Set it up

  1. Write a one-page brief

    Describe the app in plain words: who it is for, the 3 core screens or actions, and what "done" looks like.

  2. Start the project with your agent

    Open Claude Opus 5.5 and paste the brief. Ask it to propose a stack and a file plan before writing code.

  3. Build one slice at a time

    Ship the smallest working flow first, run it, then add features one by one. Commit after each working step.

  4. Test it like a user

    Click through on desktop and phone. Ask the agent to add basic tests and fix anything that breaks.

  5. Check security and ship

    Keep keys in environment variables, check auth and database rules, then deploy and share the link.

Copy the full setup prompt

Paste into your agent and it will walk you through the setup, asking before anything that sends, posts or spends.

Please:
1. Ask me 3 short questions about my situation (accounts I have, budget, what I want the output to look like).
2. Propose a step-by-step plan using these tools or cheaper alternatives, with the time and cost of each step. Use official pricing pages; say "check pricing" if unsure.
3. Then do the setup with me one step at a time, waiting for my OK before anything that sends messages, posts publicly, spends money or deletes data.
4. Finish with a checklist to run it again next time.
