Quick Start

Important: Start by making your own copy with GitHub's Use this template button. Do not clone this template repository directly for your website project, and do not open pull requests here with your generated website.

1. Create your own repository from this template

   On the GitHub page for this project, click Use this template, then click Create a new repository.

   Give your new repository a name, choose whether it should be public or private, then click Create repository. If GitHub shows an Include all branches option, you can leave it off.

   This gives you your own separate project to work in, so your website changes stay in your account instead of coming back to the main template.

2. Open your new repository on your computer

   After GitHub creates your copy, open that new repository. Click Code and open or clone your new repository with your preferred coding tool.

   If you use the terminal, the command will look like this:

   git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-NEW-REPOSITORY.git
   cd YOUR-NEW-REPOSITORY
   

3. Install dependencies

   npm install
   

4. Start your AI agent — Claude Code recommended:

   claude --chrome
   

5. Run the skill:

   /clone-website <target-url1> [<target-url2> ...]
   

6. Customize (optional) — after the base clone is built, modify as needed

Most supported clients expose /clone-website directly. If your client activates skills from natural-language requests, enter Clone <target-url> using the clone-website workflow. Project instructions are in AGENTS.md.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 24+
• An AI coding agent (see Supported Platforms)

Tech Stack

• Next.js 16 — App Router, React 19, TypeScript strict
• shadcn/ui — Radix primitives + Tailwind CSS v4
• Tailwind CSS v4 — oklch design tokens
• Lucide React — default icons (replaced by extracted SVGs during cloning)

How It Works

The /clone-website skill runs a multi-phase pipeline:

flowchart LR
    P1["1. Reconnaissance"] --> P2["2. Foundation"]
    P2 --> P3["3. Component Specs"]
    P3 --> P4["4. Parallel Build"]
    P4 --> P5["5. Assembly and QA"]

1. Reconnaissance — screenshots, design token extraction, interaction sweep (scroll, click, hover, responsive)
2. Foundation — updates fonts, colors, globals, downloads all assets
3. Component Specs — writes detailed spec files (docs/research/components/) with exact computed CSS values, states, behaviors, and content
4. Parallel Build — dispatches builder agents in git worktrees, one per section/component
5. Assembly & QA — merges worktrees, wires up the page, runs visual diff against the original

Each builder agent receives the full component specification inline — exact getComputedStyle() values, interaction models, multi-state content, responsive breakpoints, and asset paths. No guessing.

Use Cases

• Platform migration — rebuild a site you own from WordPress/Webflow/Squarespace into a modern Next.js codebase
• Lost source code — your site is live but the repo is gone, the developer left, or the stack is legacy. Get the code back in a modern format
• Learning — deconstruct how production sites achieve specific layouts, animations, and responsive behavior by working with real code

Not Intended For

• Phishing or impersonation — this project must not be used for deceptive purposes, impersonation, or any activity that breaks the law.
• Passing off someone's design as your own — logos, brand assets, and original copy belong to their owners.
• Violating terms of service — some sites explicitly prohibit scraping or reproduction. Check first.

Commands

npm run dev    # Start dev server
npm run build  # Production build
npm run lint   # ESLint check
npm run typecheck # TypeScript check
npm run check  # Run lint + typecheck + build

If using docker

docker compose up app --build # build and run the app
docker compose up dev --build # run the app in dev mode on port 3001

Updating for Other Platforms

Two source-of-truth files power all platform support. Edit the source, then run the sync script:

What	Source of truth	Sync command
Project instructions	AGENTS.md	bash scripts/sync-agent-rules.sh
/clone-website skill	.claude/skills/clone-website/SKILL.md	node scripts/sync-skills.mjs

Each script regenerates the platform-specific copies automatically. Agents that read the source files natively need no regeneration.
