replica-build

by replica-skill

Rebuilds an app screen by screen from the recon map: app shell first, then the core flow as a vertical slice, then every screen with all its states, ticking off the feature matrix as it goes. Writes every line fresh, never the original's code, assets or copy. Use when the user says "build the clone", "build screen S07", "start building", "rebuild this screen", "implement the booking page", or after /replica-design.

replica-designRebuilds an app's design system for a clone: colour roles, type scale, spacing, radius, shadows and every component with its states, as design tokens plus component specs, with original assets instead of the target's logos, icons, illustrations or licensed fonts. Includes a WCAG contrast checker. Use when the user says "match the design", "rebuild the design system", "get the colours and fonts", "make it look like X", "design tokens for my clone", or after /replica-architect.0 installs replica-diffCompares an app clone against the original: a feature parity score from the feature matrix (weighted by must, should, could) with the missing list in build order, plus a screenshot layout diff that ignores colour so a rebrand does not count against you. Two standard-library Python tools. Use when the user says "how close is my clone", "compare it to the original", "what's missing", "parity check", "diff the screens", "is it ready", or after /replica-test.0 installs replica-launchWrites the launch for an app clone: the landing page built on the positioning angle, pricing set against the original's public pricing and its users' complaints, and the App Store and Google Play listing linted against the stores' limits and copycat rules. Use when the user says "landing page", "pricing", "how much should I charge", "App Store listing", "store screenshots", "launch plan", "Product Hunt", or after /replica-brand.0 installs replica-testClicks through every flow of an app clone and tests it for bugs: a test plan generated from the recon flows with happy paths and edge cases, Playwright end-to-end tests where possible, a browser click-through where not, and bug reports in a fixed format with severity, steps and evidence. Use when the user says "test my clone", "find bugs", "QA this", "click through everything", "write e2e tests", "does it work", or after /replica-build or /replica-backend.0 installs

replica-brandNames and rebrands an app clone so it is the user's own: name candidates with the trademark, domain, store and handle checks to run, a new palette checked for contrast, a logo brief, a voice guide, and a sweep tool that finds anything of the original left in the codebase. Use when the user says "name my app", "rebrand the clone", "make it mine", "pick a name and colours", "logo brief", "brand voice", "check for leftovers", or after /replica-entrepreneur. Always runs before /replica-launch.0 installs replica-deployShips an app clone live on the user's own domain: a preflight gate (tests green, parity must-haves done, rebrand sweep clean, listing linted, legal pages up), production database and env vars, the host, DNS records for the domain and for email, Stripe live mode, OAuth redirects, monitoring, and mobile builds to TestFlight and Play. Use when the user says "deploy it", "ship it", "put it live", "connect my domain", "go to production", "publish the app", or after /replica-launch.0 installs replica-entrepreneurResearches the app being cloned and reads what its real users say in public reviews (App Store, Google Play, G2, Capterra, Trustpilot, Reddit, Hacker News, its own feature-request board), then ranks what they hate, what is missing and what is unsolved, turns it into a fix plan for the clone and a positioning angle you can sell. Every quote is real, verbatim and linked. Use when the user says "what do people hate about X", "read the reviews", "how do I make mine better", "find the gap", "what features are missing", "how do I position this", "make it sellable", or after /replica-diff.0 installs replica-reconReverse-engineers any app into a recon map: screen inventory, user flows, component list, inferred data model and a feature matrix, from public pages, screenshots, app store listings, help docs and the user's own account. The first step of the Replica pack. Use when the user says "clone this app", "reverse engineer X", "how does X work", "map out X", "what screens does X have", "I want to build my own version of X", "copy this app", or pastes an app's URL or App Store link and wants to rebuild it.0 installs replica-architectPlans the stack, database schema and API for an app clone, from the recon map replica-recon wrote. Picks boring, managed tech, turns the inferred data model into real SQL with indexes and access rules, lists every route by flow, and orders the build as a thin vertical slice first. Use when the user says "plan the clone", "what stack should I use", "design the database", "write the schema", "plan the API", "architecture for my version of X", or after /replica-recon finishes.0 installs replica-backendBuilds the backend of an app clone: auth, database migrations and access rules, payments with Stripe, email, background jobs and third-party integrations through official APIs only, plus a security checklist. Use when the user says "add login", "set up auth", "wire up the database", "add payments", "connect Stripe", "add Google Calendar", "send emails", "backend for my clone", or when /replica-build is running on fake data.0 installs

Frequently asked questions about replica-build

What does the replica-build skill do?

How do I install the replica-build skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install replica-skill-replica-build` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/replica-skill-replica-build/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does replica-build work with?

replica-build runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the replica-build skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use replica-build after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/replica-skill-replica-build` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the replica-build skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
