Focused app files
Polymai separates markup, styling, behavior, data, assets, SQL, and server functions instead of mixing the app into one large generated file.
Developers
Technical structure without the uncontrolled rewrite.
Polymai runs inside VS Code and treats AI app building as a staged development workflow: shape the brief, plan the surface, generate a structured app, preview the result, validate setup, and keep future changes scoped.
Structured Output
Apps are generated as inspectable projects.
Small files, clear ownership, reviewable changes.
Project contract
The generated project can include a registry that records expected files, load order, capabilities, and responsibility boundaries for future updates.
Codex handoff
Polymai can prepare the brief, rules, plan, and task context so Codex implements against the same app contract instead of a loose prompt.
Scoped iteration
Update work is grounded in the existing structure, app map, project memory, and allowed file surface so changes can stay narrow.
Runtime Services
Service-aware artifacts, not provider secrets in the browser.
Polymai can plan the files and boundaries needed for data, auth, storage, server-only work, payments, email, publishing, and readiness checks.
Database, auth, storage, policies
Schema, row-level security, storage setup, and frontend-safe runtime config can be generated as app-scoped artifacts.
Server-only boundaries
Email, AI jobs, scraping/fetch tasks, scheduled work, checkout sessions, billing portals, and webhooks belong behind functions.
Webhook-confirmed payments
Frontend code gets publishable runtime values. Secret keys, checkout creation, portal sessions, and fulfillment stay server-side.
Private values stay private
Provider keys, webhook signing secrets, service roles, tokens, and database credentials are kept in VS Code or provider environments.
Browser-first validation
Local preview, screenshot review, smoke tests, and provisioning status make the next action visible before the work is treated as done.
Setup Model
Bring your own accounts. Polymai coordinates the workflow.
Polymai runs inside VS Code. It writes real project files, keeps the app contract visible, runs previews and checks, and coordinates Codex/provider handoff without hiding the code in a closed platform.
