Hand-in Kit helps you get a folder of scans, PDFs and notes ready to send. Check each filename, move files into order, compare smaller JPEG copies with their originals, and download one ZIP. Reuse a free recipe or save your own; adjust themes, folders, checklists and the size budget to suit your work. Hindi filenames are supported. Files stay on your device and originals are kept. Includes an editable message and a pack report. Built with Codex assistance.
This pass was about making Hand-in Kit easier to understand from the outside. The README now starts with the actual problem, then walks through a small sample pack instead of opening with a long technical list. The walkthrough uses two fictional scans and a notes file. Pick Lab record, add a subject, make smaller image copies, compare them with the originals, and check the pack before downloading. It also explains what the tool keeps on your device and what a reload clears. The twelve workspace additions are explained by what they help with: a free recipe marketplace; your own saved recipes; recipe import/export; themes, accents and spacing; exact duplicate checks with undo; previews; manual file order; per-file folders; an exact ZIP budget; file checklists; an editable message; and a JSON pack report. Search and type filters only change the visible list, so they do not quietly remove attachments from the ZIP. The four attached pictures show the marketplace, a custom recipe editor, Hindi filenames in the pack, and the original-versus-JPEG preview. The README gallery also includes the workspace and theme controls. The example recipe really was saved with two image checks, one document check, an 8 MB budget and a CSV index. All scan files shown are fictional demo files. The public sample scans became a displayed 583 KB from 2.5 MB at the 300 KB setting. Originals remain available. The earlier read-only message and offline #marketplace reload bugs are fixed, but PDFs are still packaged unchanged and small writing still needs a readability check. The implementation’s 21 tests and 13 syntax checks passed in CI. For this documentation update, all five screenshot files and local README links were checked, the README was opened on public GitHub, and the eleven-file build passed. The pictures stay in the repository and are not added to the app bundle. The project banner and description have also been refreshed. I requested the project direction and features. Codex prepared the code, design, tests and documentation and performed the recorded checks. This is substantially AI-assisted work. Hours come from the linked handin-kit tracker; a rounded 3h badge is not used as proof of the mission’s exact three-hour requirement. Try Hand-in Kit Source, walkthrough and screenshot gallery
Hand-in Kit started with a small job: make a mixed folder of attachments easier to hand in. Version 2 makes that routine reusable and gives the pack a proper review step.
The naming preview works with manual ordering and per-file folders. Move a scan up, choose References for a file, or type a Hindi label, and its planned ZIP path changes before you download. Repeated names get a suffix rather than replacing another attachment. Search and type filters help review the list; hidden rows still stay in the pack.
The free recipe marketplace has seven starting setups. Each recipe stores naming, scan-size and budget settings with file-count requirements. You can save your own, edit it, or export/import a small JSON file. The README gallery shows a real example: Lab scans + notes, with two images, one document, an 8 MB budget and a CSV index.
Warm paper, mint desk and night ink have accent and spacing choices. There is also an exact-duplicate check with undo, original/prepared preview, exact ZIP budget, file checklist and JSON report. The message is editable and keeps your wording while other pack settings change. These are the twelve workspace additions explained in the README.
Two fixes mattered during checks: the earlier message field was read-only, and offline reloads with #marketplace missed the cached page. Both are fixed. Image headers are checked before decoding, so malformed or excessively large images can be kept unchanged rather than disrupting the pack.
On the public app, the two fictional scans went from a displayed 2.5 MB to 583 KB at the 300 KB target. The attached picture shows an original beside its JPEG copy. Small writing still needs a readability check, and PDFs are packaged unchanged.
The implementation has 21 passing automated tests, 13 syntax checks and a ZIP fixture checked by a separate Python reader. Browser checks covered recipe imports, Hindi filename collisions, duplicate removal/undo, completed downloads, mobile/tablet layouts and offline reloads. The README has now been rewritten around a short walkthrough, useful examples, five real screenshots, setup commands and honest limits. Its image files and local links were checked, and the eleven-file public build passed; the gallery is not added to the app bundle. The project banner and description were refreshed too.
The gallery shows the workspace, recipe marketplace, custom editor, Hindi filename pack and scan comparison. All scans shown are fictional demo files. Appearance and saved recipes can persist locally; attachments, names and messages in the workbench do not.
I requested the direction and features. Codex prepared the code, design, tests and writing and performed the recorded checks. This is substantially AI-assisted work. This edited post retains its original 2h 42m 13s attribution; no new hours are claimed by editing it. The README follow-up has its own devlog; that later record is separate from this original attribution.
