pdd-to-deliver-app

This Skill builds CommCare Deliver service delivery applications from Product Design Documents using the Nova autobuild tool, automatically enforcing required Connect scaffold configuration, per-form deliver unit rules, and placeholder syntax constraints to ensure successful automated app generation.

CommCare Deliver apps often fail build and release gates due to misconfigured deliver units, partial field persistence, or missing Connect payment markers, which can be identified and resolved through validation error healing and structural deliver unit uniqueness checks.

A Nova autobuild brief is a precise configuration document required for Connect program workflows to correctly generate service delivery applications, ensuring form-level configuration, payment markers, and case write-back rules are properly applied during automated app generation.

Yes, you can automate case write-back validation and Connect payment marker setup by generating a CommCare Deliver app from a PDD, which includes post-build field count verification and case list column healing to catch partial persistence errors before deployment.

Automated CommCare Deliver app generation from PDDs requires a correctly structured Product Design Document as input and is limited to Connect program workflows, meaning it cannot heal validation errors or fix misconfigured deliver units without a properly formatted PDD to parse.
