+ "prompt": "\n# Clone Website\n\nYou are about to reverse-engineer and rebuild **the target URL provided by the user** as pixel-perfect clones.\n\nWhen multiple URLs are provided, process them independently and in parallel where possible, while keeping each site's extraction artifacts isolated in dedicated folders (for example, `docs/research/<hostname>/`).\n\nThis is not a two-phase process (inspect then build). You are a **foreman walking the job site** — as you inspect each section of the page, you write a detailed specification to a file, then hand that file to a specialist builder agent with everything they need. Extraction and construction happen in parallel, but extraction is meticulous and produces auditable artifacts.\n\n## Scope Defaults\n\nThe target is whatever page `the target URL provided by the user` resolves to. Clone exactly what's visible at that URL. Unless the user specifies otherwise, use these defaults:\n\n- **Fidelity level:** Pixel-perfect — exact match in colors, spacing, typography, animations\n- **In scope:** Visual layout and styling, component structure and interactions, responsive design, mock data for demo purposes\n- **Out of scope:** Real backend / database, authentication, real-time features, SEO optimization, accessibility audit\n- **Customization:** None — pure emulation\n\nIf the user provides additional instructions (specific fidelity level, customizations, extra context), honor those over the defaults.\n\n## Pre-Flight\n\n1. **Browser automation is required.** Check for available browser MCP tools (Chrome MCP, Playwright MCP, Browserbase MCP, Puppeteer MCP, etc.). Use whichever is available — if multiple exist, prefer Chrome MCP. If none are detected, ask the user which browser tool they have and how to connect it. This skill cannot work without browser automation.\n2. Parse `the target URL provided by the user` as one or more URLs. Normalize and validate each URL; if any are invalid, ask the user to correct them before proceeding. For each valid URL, verify it is accessible via your browser MCP tool.\n3. Verify the base project builds: `npm run build`. The Next.js + shadcn/ui + Tailwind v4 scaffold should already be in place. If not, tell the user to set it up first.\n4. Create the output directories if they don't exist: `docs/research/`, `docs/research/components/`, `docs/design-references/`, `scripts/`. For multiple clones, also prepare per-site folders like `docs/research/<hostname>/` and `docs/design-references/<hostname>/`.\n5. When working with multiple sites in one command, optionally confirm whether to run them in parallel (recommended, if resources allow) or sequentially to avoid overload.\n\n## Guiding Principles\n\nThese are the truths that separate a successful clone from a \"close enough\" mess. Internalize them — they should inform every decision you make.\n\n### 0. Visual crawl priority (images, SVGs, motion — first)\n\nWhen you traverse the DOM and the Network panel, do **not** treat all nodes equally. Work in this **priority order** so the clone feels like the original, not a wireframe:\n\n1. **Images (raster + video stills)** — Enumerate `<img>`, `<picture>`, responsive `srcset`, `data-*` lazy URLs, **computed `background-image`** on the element and parents (including pseudo-elements), mask images, `<video poster>`, hero media. **Scrape:** download binary assets to `public/images/` (or `public/videos/`) with stable paths referenced in specs. **Create** a replacement PNG/WebP/SVG only when the asset is blocked (CORS, auth cookie, 403), ephemeral, or impossible to URL-fetch — use a high-DPI screenshot crop, traced artwork, or CSS gradient approximation, and mark `ASSET_SOURCE: generated` in the component spec with a short reason.\n2. **SVGs & iconography** — Inline `<svg>`, sprite `symbol` defs, **SVG used as masks/filters**, icon fonts (prefer path extraction). Convert to `@/components/icons.tsx` (or section-local components) with meaningful names. Prioritize crisp edges and correct `viewBox` over shrinking bundle size during emulation.\n3. **Motion & animation** — CSS `@keyframes`, `animation`, `animation-timeline`, `transition`, `transform`, will-change hints; JS-driven motion (carousel timing, IntersectionObserver reveals); libraries (GSAP, Framer, Lottie JSON, Lenis). Capture **numbers** (ms, easing curves, stagger, scroll thresholds), not adjectives. Include **reduced-motion** behavior if present.\n\nOnly after the above are accounted for should you spend cycle time on minor text or non-visual refactors. A perfect grid with missing hero art and dead animation still fails the clone.\n\n### 1. Completeness Beats Speed\n\nEvery builder agent must receive **everything** it needs to do its job perfectly: screenshot, exact CSS values, downloaded assets with local paths, real text content, component structure. If a builder has to guess anything — a color, a font size, a padding value — you have failed at extraction. Take the extra minute to extract one more property rather than shipping an incomplete brief.\n\n### 2. Small Tasks, Perfect Results\n\nWhen an agent gets \"build the entire features section,\" it glosses over details — it approximates spacing, guesses font sizes, and produces something \"close enough\" but clearly wrong. When it gets a single focused component with exact CSS values, it nails it every time.\n\nLook at each section and judge its complexity. A simple banner with a heading and a button? One agent. A complex section with 3 different card variants, each with unique hover states and internal layouts? One agent per card variant plus one for the section wrapper. When in doubt, make it smaller.\n\n**Complexity budget rule:** If a builder prompt exceeds ~150 lines of spec content, the section is too complex for one agent. Break it into smaller pieces. This is a mechanical check — don't override it with \"but it's all related.\"\n\n### 3. Real Content, Real Assets\n\nExtract the actual text, images, videos, and SVGs from the live site. This is a clone, not a mockup. Use `element.textContent`, download every `<img>` and `<video>`, extract inline `<svg>` elements as React components. The only time you generate content is when something is clearly server-generated and unique per session.\n\n**Prioritize** (see §0): downloadable imagery and backgrounds first, then SVG/icon layers, then motion. If you must **fabricate** an asset, prefer screenshot-based exports or traced vectors tied to measured box sizes — avoid unrelated stock art.\n\n**Layered assets matter.** A section that looks like one image is often multiple layers — a background watercolor/gradient, a foreground UI mockup PNG, an overlay icon. Inspect each container's full DOM tree and enumerate ALL `<img>` elements and background images within it, including absolutely-positioned overlays. Missing an overlay image makes the clone look empty even if the background is correct.\n\n### 4. Foundation First\n\nNothing can be built until the foundation exists: global CSS with the target site's design tokens (colors, fonts, spacing), TypeScript types for the content structures, and global assets (fonts, favicons). This is sequential and non-negotiable. Everything after this can be parallel.\n\n### 5. Extract How It Looks AND How It Behaves\n\nA website is not a screenshot — it's a living thing. Elements move, change, appear, and disappear in response to scrolling, hovering, clicking, resizing, and time. If you only extract the static CSS of each element, your clone will look right in a screenshot but feel dead when someone actually uses it.\n\nFor every element, extract its **appearance** (exact computed CSS via `getComputedStyle()`) AND its **behavior** (what changes, what triggers the change, and how the transition happens). Not \"it looks like 16px\" — extract the actual computed value. Not \"the nav changes on scroll\" — document the exact trigger (scroll position, IntersectionObserver threshold, viewport intersection), the before and after states (both sets of CSS values), and the transition (duration, easing, CSS transition vs. JS-driven vs. CSS `animation-timeline`).\n\nExamples of behaviors to watch for — these are illustrative, not exhaustive. The page may do things not on this list, and you must catch those too:\n- A navbar that shrinks, changes background, or gains a shadow after scrolling past a threshold\n- Elements that animate into view when they enter the viewport (fade-up, slide-in, stagger delays)\n- Sections that snap into place on scroll (`scroll-snap-type`)\n- Parallax layers that move at different rates than the scroll\n- Hover states that animate (not just change — the transition duration and easing matter)\n- Dropdowns, modals, accordions with enter/exit animations\n- Scroll-driven progress indicators or opacity transitions\n- Auto-playing carousels or cycling content\n- Dark-to-light (or any theme) transitions between page sections\n- **Tabbed/pill content that cycles** — buttons that switch visible card sets with transitions\n- **Scroll-driven tab/accordion switching** — sidebars where the active item auto-changes as content scrolls past (IntersectionObserver, NOT click handlers)\n- **Smooth scroll libraries** (Lenis, Locomotive Scroll) — check for `.lenis` class or scroll container wrappers\n\n### 6. Identify the Interaction Model Before Building\n\nThis is the single most expensive mistake in cloning: building a click-based UI when the original is scroll-driven, or vice versa. Before writing any builder prompt for an interactive section, you must definitively answer: **Is this section driven by clicks, scrolls, hovers, time, or some combination?**\n\nHow to determine this:\n1. **Don't click first.** Scroll through the section slowly and observe if things change on their own as you scroll.\n2. If they do, it's scroll-driven. Extract the mechanism: `IntersectionObserver`, `scroll-snap`, `position: sticky`, `animation-timeline`, or JS scroll listeners.\n3. If nothing changes on scroll, THEN click/hover to test for click/hover-driven interactivity.\n4. Document the interaction model explicitly in the component spec: \"INTERACTION MODEL: scroll-driven with IntersectionObserver\" or \"INTERACTION MODEL: click-to-switch with opacity transition.\"\n\nA section with a sticky sidebar and scrolling content panels is fundamentally different from a tabbed interface where clicking switches content. Getting this wrong means a complete rewrite, not a CSS tweak.\n\n### 7. Extract Every State, Not Just the Default\n\nMany components have multiple visual states — a tab bar shows different cards per tab, a header looks different at scroll position 0 vs 100, a card has hover effects. You must extract ALL states, not just whatever is visible on page load.\n\nFor tabbed/stateful content:\n- Click each tab/button via browser MCP\n- Extract the content, images, and card data for EACH state\n- Record which content belongs to which state\n- Note the transition animation between states (opacity, slide, fade, etc.)\n\nFor scroll-dependent elements:\n- Capture computed styles at scroll position 0 (initial state)\n- Scroll past the trigger threshold and capture computed styles again (scrolled state)\n- Diff the two to identify exactly which CSS properties change\n- Record the transition CSS (duration, easing, properties)\n- Record the exact trigger threshold (scroll position in px, or viewport intersection ratio)\n\n### 8. Spec Files Are the Source of Truth\n\nEvery component gets a specification file in `docs/research/components/` BEFORE any builder is dispatched. This file is the contract between your extraction work and the builder agent. The builder receives the spec file contents inline in its prompt — the file also persists as an auditable artifact that the user (or you) can review if something looks wrong.\n\nThe spec file is not optional. It is not a nice-to-have. If you dispatch a builder without first writing a spec file, you are shipping incomplete instructions based on whatever you can remember from a browser MCP session, and the builder will guess to fill gaps.\n\n### 9. Build Must Always Compile\n\nEvery builder agent must verify `npx tsc --noEmit` passes before finishing. After merging worktrees, you verify `npm run build` passes. A broken build is never acceptable, even temporarily.\n\n## Phase 1: Reconnaissance\n\nNavigate to the target URL with browser MCP.\n\nFollow **§0 (Visual crawl priority)** during the entire reconnaissance pass: images and backgrounds → SVGs/icons → motion/animations — before spending time on secondary copy tweaks.\n\n### Screenshots\n- Take **full-page screenshots** at desktop (1440px) and mobile (390px) viewports\n- Save to `docs/design-references/` with descriptive names\n- These are your master reference — builders will receive section-specific crops/screenshots later\n\n### Global Extraction\nExtract these from the page before doing anything else:\n\n**Fonts** — Inspect `<link>` tags for Google Fonts or self-hosted fonts. Check computed `font-family` on key elements (headings, body, code, labels). Document every family, weight, and style actually used. Configure them in `src/app/layout.tsx` using `next/font/google` or `next/font/local`.\n\n**Colors** — Extract the site's color palette from computed styles across the page. Update `src/app/globals.css` with the target's actual colors in the `:root` and `.dark` CSS variable blocks. Map them to shadcn's token names (background, foreground, primary, muted, etc.) where they fit. Add custom properties for colors that don't map to shadcn tokens.\n\n**Favicons & Meta** — Download favicons, apple-touch-icons, OG images, webmanifest to `public/seo/`. Update `layout.tsx` metadata.\n\n**Global UI patterns** — Identify any site-wide CSS or JS: custom scrollbar hiding, scroll-snap on the page container, global keyframe animations, backdrop filters, gradients used as overlays, **smooth scroll libraries** (Lenis, Locomotive Scroll — check for `.lenis`, `.locomotive-scroll`, or custom scroll container classes). Add these to `globals.css` and note any libraries that need to be installed.\n\n### Mandatory Interaction Sweep\n\nThis is a dedicated pass AFTER screenshots and BEFORE anything else. Its purpose is to discover every behavior on the page — many of which are invisible in a static screenshot.\n\n**Scroll sweep:** Scroll the page slowly from top to bottom via browser MCP. At each section, pause and observe:\n- Does the header change appearance? Record the scroll position where it triggers.\n- Do elements animate into view? Record which ones and the animation type.\n- Does a sidebar or tab indicator auto-switch as you scroll? Record the mechanism.\n- Are there scroll-snap points? Record which containers.\n- Is there a smooth scroll library active? Check for non-native scroll behavior.\n\n**Click sweep:** Click every element that looks interactive:\n- Every button, tab, pill, link, card\n- Record what happens: does content change? Does a modal open? Does a dropdown appear?\n- For tabs/pills: click EACH ONE and record the content that appears for each state\n\n**Hover sweep:** Hover over every element that might have hover states:\n- Buttons, cards, links, images, nav items\n- Record what changes: color, scale, shadow, underline, opacity\n\n**Responsive sweep:** Test at 3 viewport widths via browser MCP:\n- Desktop: 1440px\n- Tablet: 768px\n- Mobile: 390px\n- At each width, note which sections change layout (column → stack, sidebar disappears, etc.) and at approximately which breakpoint the change occurs.\n\nSave all findings to `docs/research/BEHAVIORS.md`. This is your behavior bible — reference it when writing every component spec.\n\n### Page Topology\nMap out every distinct section of the page from top to bottom. Give each a working name. Document:\n- Their visual order\n- Which are fixed/sticky overlays vs. flow content\n- The overall page layout (scroll container, column structure, z-index layers)\n- Dependencies between sections (e.g., a floating nav that overlays everything)\n- **The interaction model** of each section (static, click-driven, scroll-driven, time-driven)\n\nSave this as `docs/research/PAGE_TOPOLOGY.md` — it becomes your assembly blueprint.\n\n## Phase 2: Foundation Build\n\nThis is sequential. Do it yourself (not delegated to an agent) since it touches many files:\n\n1. **Update fonts** in `layout.tsx` to match the target site's actual fonts\n2. **Update globals.css** with the target's color tokens, spacing values, keyframe animations, utility classes, and any **global scroll behaviors** (Lenis, smooth scroll CSS, scroll-snap on body)\n3. **Create TypeScript interfaces** in `src/types/` for the content structures you've observed\n4. **Extract SVG icons** — find all inline `<svg>` elements on the page, deduplicate them, and save as named React components in `src/components/icons.tsx`. Name them by visual function (e.g., `SearchIcon`, `ArrowRightIcon`, `LogoIcon`).\n5. **Download global assets** — write and run a Node.js script (`scripts/download-assets.mjs`) that downloads all images, videos, and other binary assets from the page to `public/`. Preserve meaningful directory structure.\n6. Verify: `npm run build` passes\n\n### Asset Discovery Script Pattern\n\nUse browser MCP to enumerate all assets on the page:\n\n```javascript\n// Run this via browser MCP to discover all assets\nJSON.stringify({\n images: [...document.querySelectorAll('img')].map(img => ({\n src: img.src || img.currentSrc,\n alt: img.alt,\n width: img.naturalWidth,\n height: img.naturalHeight,\n // Include parent info to detect layered compositions\n parentClasses: img.parentElement?.className,\n siblings: img.parentElement ? [...img.parentElement.querySelectorAll('img')].length : 0,\n position: getComputedStyle(img).position,\n zIndex: getComputedStyle(img).zIndex\n })),\n videos: [...document.querySelectorAll('video')].map(v => ({\n src: v.src || v.querySelector('source')?.src,\n poster: v.poster,\n autoplay: v.autoplay,\n loop: v.loop,\n muted: v.muted\n })),\n backgroundImages: [...document.querySelectorAll('*')].filter(el => {\n const bg = getComputedStyle(el).backgroundImage;\n return bg && bg !== 'none';\n }).map(el => ({\n url: getComputedStyle(el).backgroundImage,\n element: el.tagName + '.' + el.className?.split(' ')[0]\n })),\n svgCount: document.querySelectorAll('svg').length,\n fonts: [...new Set([...document.querySelectorAll('*')].slice(0, 200).map(el => getComputedStyle(el).fontFamily))],\n favicons: [...document.querySelectorAll('link[rel*=\"icon\"]')].map(l => ({ href: l.href, sizes: l.sizes?.toString() }))\n});\n```\n\nThen write a download script that fetches everything to `public/`. Use batched parallel downloads (4 at a time) with proper error handling.\n\n## Phase 3: Component Specification & Dispatch\n\nThis is the core loop. For each section in your page topology (top to bottom), you do THREE things: **extract**, **write the spec file**, then **dispatch builders**.\n\n### Step 1: Extract\n\nFor each section, use browser MCP to extract everything:\n\n1. **Screenshot** the section in isolation (scroll to it, screenshot the viewport). Save to `docs/design-references/`.\n\n2. **Extract CSS** for every element in the section. Use the extraction script below — don't hand-measure individual properties. Run it once per component container and capture the full output:\n\n```javascript\n// Per-component extraction — run via browser MCP\n// Replace SELECTOR with the actual CSS selector for the component\n(function(selector) {\n const el = document.querySelector(selector);\n if (!el) return JSON.stringify({ error: 'Element not found: ' + selector });\n const props = [\n 'fontSize','fontWeight','fontFamily','lineHeight','letterSpacing','color',\n 'textTransform','textDecoration','backgroundColor','background',\n 'padding','paddingTop','paddingRight','paddingBottom','paddingLeft',\n 'margin','marginTop','marginRight','marginBottom','marginLeft',\n 'width','height','maxWidth','minWidth','maxHeight','minHeight',\n 'display','flexDirection','justifyContent','alignItems','gap',\n 'gridTemplateColumns','gridTemplateRows',\n 'borderRadius','border','borderTop','borderBottom','borderLeft','borderRight',\n 'boxShadow','overflow','overflowX','overflowY',\n 'position','top','right','bottom','left','zIndex',\n 'opacity','transform','transition','cursor',\n 'objectFit','objectPosition','mixBlendMode','filter','backdropFilter',\n 'whiteSpace','textOverflow','WebkitLineClamp'\n ];\n function extractStyles(element) {\n const cs = getComputedStyle(element);\n const styles = {};\n props.forEach(p => { const v = cs[p]; if (v && v !== 'none' && v !== 'normal' && v !== 'auto' && v !== '0px' && v !== 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)') styles[p] = v; });\n return styles;\n }\n function walk(element, depth) {\n if (depth > 4) return null;\n const children = [...element.children];\n return {\n tag: element.tagName.toLowerCase(),\n classes: element.className?.toString().split(' ').slice(0, 5).join(' '),\n text: element.childNodes.length === 1 && element.childNodes[0].nodeType === 3 ? element.textContent.trim().slice(0, 200) : null,\n styles: extractStyles(element),\n images: element.tagName === 'IMG' ? { src: element.src, alt: element.alt, naturalWidth: element.naturalWidth, naturalHeight: element.naturalHeight } : null,\n childCount: children.length,\n children: children.slice(0, 20).map(c => walk(c, depth + 1)).filter(Boolean)\n };\n }\n return JSON.stringify(walk(el, 0), null, 2);\n})('SELECTOR');\n```\n\n3. **Extract multi-state styles** — for any element with multiple states (scroll-triggered, hover, active tab), capture BOTH states:\n\n```javascript\n// State A: capture styles at current state (e.g., scroll position 0)\n// Then trigger the state change (scroll, click, hover via browser MCP)\n// State B: re-run the extraction script on the same element\n// The diff between A and B IS the behavior specification\n```\n\nRecord the diff explicitly: \"Property X changes from VALUE_A to VALUE_B, triggered by TRIGGER, with transition: TRANSITION_CSS.\"\n\n4. **Extract real content** — all text, alt attributes, aria labels, placeholder text. Use `element.textContent` for each text node. For tabbed/stateful content, **click each tab and extract content per state**.\n\n5. **Identify assets** this section uses — which downloaded images/videos from `public/`, which icon components from `icons.tsx`. Check for **layered images** (multiple `<img>` or background-images stacked in the same container).\n\n6. **Assess complexity** — how many distinct sub-components does this section contain? A distinct sub-component is an element with its own unique styling, structure, and behavior (e.g., a card, a nav item, a search panel).\n\n### Step 2: Write the Component Spec File\n\nFor each section (or sub-component, if you're breaking it up), create a spec file in `docs/research/components/`. This is NOT optional — every builder must have a corresponding spec file.\n\n**File path:** `docs/research/components/<component-name>.spec.md`\n\n**Template:**\n\n```markdown\n# <ComponentName> Specification\n\n## Overview\n- **Target file:** `src/components/<ComponentName>.tsx`\n- **Screenshot:** `docs/design-references/<screenshot-name>.png`\n- **Interaction model:** <static | click-driven | scroll-driven | time-driven>\n\n## DOM Structure\n<Describe the element hierarchy — what contains what>\n\n## Computed Styles (exact values from getComputedStyle)\n\n### Container\n- display: ...\n- padding: ...\n- maxWidth: ...\n- (every relevant property with exact values)\n\n### <Child element 1>\n- fontSize: ...\n- color: ...\n- (every relevant property)\n\n### <Child element N>\n...\n\n## States & Behaviors\n\n### <Behavior name, e.g., \"Scroll-triggered floating mode\">\n- **Trigger:** <exact mechanism — scroll position 50px, IntersectionObserver rootMargin \"-30% 0px\", click on .tab-button, hover>\n- **State A (before):** maxWidth: 100vw, boxShadow: none, borderRadius: 0\n- **State B (after):** maxWidth: 1200px, boxShadow: 0 4px 20px rgba(0,0,0,0.1), borderRadius: 16px\n- **Transition:** transition: all 0.3s ease\n- **Implementation approach:** <CSS transition + scroll listener | IntersectionObserver | CSS animation-timeline | etc.>\n\n### Hover states\n- **<Element>:** <property>: <before> → <after>, transition: <value>\n\n## Per-State Content (if applicable)\n\n### State: \"Featured\"\n- Title: \"...\"\n- Subtitle: \"...\"\n- Cards: [{ title, description, image, link }, ...]\n\n### State: \"Productivity\"\n- Title: \"...\"\n- Cards: [...]\n\n## Assets\n- Background image: `public/images/<file>.webp`\n- Overlay image: `public/images/<file>.png`\n- Icons used: <ArrowIcon>, <SearchIcon> from icons.tsx\n\n## Text Content (verbatim)\n<All text content, copy-pasted from the live site>\n\n## Responsive Behavior\n- **Desktop (1440px):** <layout description>\n- **Tablet (768px):** <what changes — e.g., \"maintains 2-column, gap reduces to 16px\">\n- **Mobile (390px):** <what changes — e.g., \"stacks to single column, images full-width\">\n- **Breakpoint:** layout switches at ~<N>px\n```\n\nFill every section. If a section doesn't apply (e.g., no states for a static footer), write \"N/A\" — but think twice before marking States & Behaviors as N/A. Even a footer might have hover states on links.\n\n### Step 3: Dispatch Builders\n\nBased on complexity, dispatch builder agent(s) in worktree(s):\n\n**Simple section** (1-2 sub-components): One builder agent gets the entire section.\n\n**Complex section** (3+ distinct sub-components): Break it up. One agent per sub-component, plus one agent for the section wrapper that imports them. Sub-component builders go first since the wrapper depends on them.\n\n**What every builder agent receives:**\n- The full contents of its component spec file (inline in the prompt — don't say \"go read the spec file\")\n- Path to the section screenshot in `docs/design-references/`\n- Which shared components to import (`icons.tsx`, `cn()`, shadcn primitives)\n- The target file path (e.g., `src/components/HeroSection.tsx`)\n- Instruction to verify with `npx tsc --noEmit` before finishing\n- For responsive behavior: the specific breakpoint values and what changes\n\n**Don't wait.** As soon as you've dispatched the builder(s) for one section, move to extracting the next section. Builders work in parallel in their worktrees while you continue extraction.\n\n### Step 4: Merge\n\nAs builder agents complete their work:\n- Merge their worktree branches into main\n- You have full context on what each agent built, so resolve any conflicts intelligently\n- After each merge, verify the build still passes: `npm run build`\n- If a merge introduces type errors, fix them immediately\n\nThe extract → spec → dispatch → merge cycle continues until all sections are built.\n\n## Phase 4: Page Assembly\n\nAfter all sections are built and merged, wire everything together in `src/app/page.tsx`:\n\n- Import all section components\n- Implement the page-level layout from your topology doc (scroll containers, column structures, sticky positioning, z-index layering)\n- Connect real content to component props\n- Implement page-level behaviors: scroll snap, scroll-driven animations, dark-to-light transitions, intersection observers, smooth scroll (Lenis etc.)\n- Verify: `npm run build` passes clean\n\n## Phase 5: Visual QA Diff\n\nAfter assembly, do NOT declare the clone complete. Take side-by-side comparison screenshots:\n\n1. Open the original site and your clone side-by-side (or take screenshots at the same viewport widths)\n2. Compare section by section, top to bottom, at desktop (1440px)\n3. Compare again at mobile (390px)\n4. For each discrepancy found:\n - Check the component spec file — was the value extracted correctly?\n - If the spec was wrong: re-extract from browser MCP, update the spec, fix the component\n - If the spec was right but the builder got it wrong: fix the component to match the spec\n5. Test all interactive behaviors: scroll through the page, click every button/tab, hover over interactive elements\n6. Verify smooth scroll feels right, header transitions work, tab switching works, animations play\n\nOnly after this visual QA pass is the clone complete.\n\n## Pre-Dispatch Checklist\n\nBefore dispatching ANY builder agent, verify you can check every box. If you can't, go back and extract more.\n\n- [ ] Spec file written to `docs/research/components/<name>.spec.md` with ALL sections filled\n- [ ] Every CSS value in the spec is from `getComputedStyle()`, not estimated\n- [ ] Interaction model is identified and documented (static / click / scroll / time)\n- [ ] For stateful components: every state's content and styles are captured\n- [ ] For scroll-driven components: trigger threshold, before/after styles, and transition are recorded\n- [ ] For hover states: before/after values and transition timing are recorded\n- [ ] All images in the section are identified (including overlays and layered compositions)\n- [ ] Responsive behavior is documented for at least desktop and mobile\n- [ ] Text content is verbatim from the site, not paraphrased\n- [ ] The builder prompt is under ~150 lines of spec; if over, the section needs to be split\n\n## What NOT to Do\n\nThese are lessons from previous failed clones — each one cost hours of rework:\n\n- **Don't build click-based tabs when the original is scroll-driven (or vice versa).** Determine the interaction model FIRST by scrolling before clicking. This is the #1 most expensive mistake — it requires a complete rewrite, not a CSS fix.\n- **Don't extract only the default state.** If there are tabs showing \"Featured\" on load, click Productivity, Creative, Lifestyle and extract each one's cards/content. If the header changes on scroll, capture styles at position 0 AND position 100+.\n- **Don't miss overlay/layered images.** A background watercolor + foreground UI mockup = 2 images. Check every container's DOM tree for multiple `<img>` elements and positioned overlays.\n- **Don't build mockup components for content that's actually videos/animations.** Check if a section uses `<video>`, Lottie, or canvas before building elaborate HTML mockups of what the video shows.\n- **Don't approximate CSS classes.** \"It looks like `text-lg`\" is wrong if the computed value is `18px` and `text-lg` is `18px/28px` but the actual line-height is `24px`. Extract exact values.\n- **Don't build everything in one monolithic commit.** The whole point of this pipeline is incremental progress with verified builds at each step.\n- **Don't reference docs from builder prompts.** Each builder gets the CSS spec inline in its prompt — never \"see DESIGN_TOKENS.md for colors.\" The builder should have zero need to read external docs.\n- **Don't skip asset extraction.** Without real images, videos, and fonts, the clone will always look fake regardless of how perfect the CSS is.\n- **Don't give a builder agent too much scope.** If you're writing a builder prompt and it's getting long because the section is complex, that's a signal to break it into smaller tasks.\n- **Don't bundle unrelated sections into one agent.** A CTA section and a footer are different components with different designs — don't hand them both to one agent and hope for the best.\n- **Don't skip responsive extraction.** If you only inspect at desktop width, the clone will break at tablet and mobile. Test at 1440, 768, and 390 during extraction.\n- **Don't forget smooth scroll libraries.** Check for Lenis (`.lenis` class), Locomotive Scroll, or similar. Default browser scrolling feels noticeably different and the user will spot it immediately.\n- **Don't dispatch builders without a spec file.** The spec file forces exhaustive extraction and creates an auditable artifact. Skipping it means the builder gets whatever you can fit in a prompt from memory.\n\n## Completion\n\nWhen done, report:\n- Total sections built\n- Total components created\n- Total spec files written (should match components)\n- Total assets downloaded (images, videos, SVGs, fonts)\n- Build status (`npm run build` result)\n- Visual QA results (any remaining discrepancies)\n- Any known gaps or limitations\n",

+ # Website Reverse-Engineer Template
11
+
12
+ ## What This Is
13
+ A reusable template for reverse-engineering any website into a clean, modern Next.js codebase using AI coding agents. The Next.js + shadcn/ui + Tailwind v4 base is pre-scaffolded — start a **new** project with **`/launchframe <url> "your saas idea"`** (runs **`npx launchframe@latest`**), or work in the current repo and run **`/clone-website <url1> [<url2> ...]`** to clone into this tree.
14
+
15
+ ## Tech Stack
16
+ - **Framework:** Next.js 16 (App Router, React 19, TypeScript strict)
17
+ - **UI:** shadcn/ui (Radix primitives, Tailwind CSS v4, `cn()` utility)
18
+ - **Icons:** Lucide React (default — will be replaced/supplemented by extracted SVGs)
19
+ - **Styling:** Tailwind CSS v4 with oklch design tokens
20
+ - **Deployment:** Vercel
21
+
22
+ ## Commands
23
+ - `npm run dev` — Start dev server
24
+ - `npm run build` — Production build
25
+ - `npm run lint` — ESLint check
26
+ - `npm run typecheck` — TypeScript check
27
+ - `npm run check` — Run lint + typecheck + build
28
+
29
+ ## Code Style
30
+ - TypeScript strict mode, no `any`
31
+ - Named exports, PascalCase components, camelCase utils
32
+ - Tailwind utility classes, no inline styles
33
+ - 2-space indentation
34
+ - Responsive: mobile-first
35
+
36
+ ## Design Principles
37
+ - **Pixel-perfect emulation** — match the target's spacing, colors, typography exactly
38
+ - **No personal aesthetic changes during emulation phase** — match 1:1 first, customize later
39
+ - **Real content** — use actual text and assets from the target site, not placeholders
40
+ - **Beauty-first** — every pixel matters
41
+ - **DOM crawl priority** — when walking the target page, emphasize **images** (raster, responsive sources, CSS backgrounds), **SVGs** (inline icons, sprites, masks), then **motion** (keyframes, transitions, scroll/time-driven animation, libraries). Scrape and save real assets from the DOM/network first; **create** a stand-in image or vector only when fetch/blocking prevents extraction, and label substitutes clearly in research notes so the clone stays auditable

64
+ ## MOST IMPORTANT NOTES
65
+ - When launching Claude Code agent teams, ALWAYS have each teammate work in their own worktree branch and merge everyone's work at the end, resolving any merge conflicts smartly since you are basically serving the orchestrator role and have full context to our goals, work given, work achieved, and desired outcomes.
66
+ - After editing `AGENTS.md`, run `bash scripts/sync-agent-rules.sh` to regenerate platform-specific instruction files.
67
+ - After editing `.claude/skills/*/SKILL.md` (for example `clone-website` or `launchframe`), run `node scripts/sync-skills.mjs` to regenerate skill and command files for all platforms.

+ # Website Inspection Guide
70
+
71
+ ## How to Reverse-Engineer Any Website
72
+
73
+ This guide outlines what to capture when inspecting a target website via Chrome MCP or browser DevTools.
74
+
75
+ ## Priority: media, SVGs, and motion (do this early)
76
+
77
+ When crawling the DOM and network, **tackle these before fine-tuning copy or spacing**:
78
+
79
+ 1. **Raster imagery** — Every `<img>`, `<picture>` / `source`, `srcset` / `sizes`, CDN URLs, lazy-loaded `data-src`, `loading="lazy"` nodes, **CSS `background-image`** on the element and ancestors (including `::before` / `::after`), masks that use `url()`, `<video>` still / poster frames. Prefer **downloading** originals via scripts or MCP; if a URL is blocked or session-gated, **export a screenshot** of the element’s bounding box at a crisp DPR and store it under `public/images/`, and note the substitute in the spec.
80
+ 2. **SVGs** — Inline `<svg>`, `<use>` / sprite sheets, **SVG in CSS** (`mask-image`, `background-image`), favicons as SVG, logo marks. Prefer extracting path/viewBox into React components or static files under `public/` — **recreate** from a screenshot/trace only when the markup is obfuscated or blocked.
81
+ 3. **Motion & animation** — Inspect Styles for `animation`, `animation-name`, `animation-timeline`, `transition`, `transform`, `@keyframes`; check for libraries (Framer Motion, GSAP, Lottie, Lenis). Capture **durations, easings, delays, fill-modes**, scroll/view triggers, and `prefers-reduced-motion` handling. Motion often defines perceived quality — do not leave it as an afterthought.
82
+
83
+ Then continue with typography, spacing, and component structure as usual.
84
+
85
+ ## Phase 1: Visual Audit
86
+
87
+ ### Screenshots to Capture
88
+ - [ ] Every distinct page — desktop, tablet, mobile
89
+ - [ ] Dark mode variants (if applicable)
90
+ - [ ] Light mode variants (if applicable)
91
+ - [ ] Key interaction states (hover, active, open menus, modals)
92
+ - [ ] Loading/skeleton states
93
+ - [ ] Empty states
94
+ - [ ] Error states
95
+
96
+ ### Design Tokens to Extract
97
+ - [ ] **Colors** — background, text (primary/secondary/muted), accent, border, hover, error, success, warning
98
+ - [ ] **Typography** — font family, sizes (h1-h6, body, caption, label), weights, line heights, letter spacing
99
+ - [ ] **Spacing** — padding/margin patterns (look for a scale: 4px, 8px, 12px, 16px, 24px, 32px, etc.)
100
+ - [ ] **Border radius** — buttons, cards, avatars, inputs
101
+ - [ ] **Shadows/elevation** — card shadows, dropdown shadows, modal overlay
102
+ - [ ] **Breakpoints** — when does the layout shift? (inspect with DevTools responsive mode)
103
+ - [ ] **Icons** — which icon library? custom SVGs? sizes?
104
+ - [ ] **Avatars** — sizes, shapes, fallback behavior
105
+ - [ ] **Buttons** — all variants (primary, secondary, ghost, icon-only, danger)
106
+ - [ ] **Inputs** — text fields, textareas, selects, checkboxes, toggles
107
+
108
+ ## Phase 2: Component Inventory
109
+
110
+ For each distinct UI component, document:
111
+ 1. **Name** — what would you call this component?
112
+ 2. **Structure** — what HTML elements / child components does it contain?
113
+ 3. **Variants** — does it have different sizes, colors, or states?
114
+ 4. **States** — default, hover, active, disabled, loading, error, empty
115
+ 5. **Responsive behavior** — how does it change at different breakpoints?
116
+ 6. **Interactions** — click, hover, focus, keyboard navigation
117
+ 7. **Animations** — transitions, entrance/exit animations, micro-interactions
118
+
119
+ ### Common Components to Look For
120
+ - Navigation (top bar, sidebar, bottom bar)
121
+ - Cards / list items
122
+ - Buttons and links
123
+ - Forms and inputs
124
+ - Modals and dialogs
125
+ - Dropdowns and menus
126
+ - Tabs and segmented controls
127
+ - Avatars and user badges
128
+ - Loading skeletons
129
+ - Toast notifications
130
+ - Tooltips and popovers
131
+
132
+ ## Phase 3: Layout Architecture
133
+
134
+ - [ ] **Grid system** — CSS Grid? Flexbox? Fixed widths?
135
+ - [ ] **Column layout** — how many columns at each breakpoint?
136
+ - [ ] **Max-width** — main content area max-width
137
+ - [ ] **Sticky elements** — header, sidebar, floating buttons
138
+ - [ ] **Z-index layers** — navigation, modals, tooltips, overlays
139
+ - [ ] **Scroll behavior** — infinite scroll, pagination, virtual scrolling
140
+
141
+ ## Phase 4: Technical Stack Analysis
142
+
143
+ - [ ] **Framework** — React? Vue? Angular? Check `__NEXT_DATA__`, `__NUXT__`, `ng-version`
144
+ - [ ] **CSS approach** — Tailwind (utility classes), CSS Modules, Styled Components, Emotion, vanilla CSS
145
+ - [ ] **State management** — Redux (check DevTools), React Query, Zustand, Pinia
146
+ - [ ] **API patterns** — REST, GraphQL (check network tab for `/graphql` requests)
147
+ - [ ] **Font loading** — Google Fonts, self-hosted, system fonts
148
+ - [ ] **Image strategy** — CDN, lazy loading, srcset, WebP/AVIF
149
+ - [ ] **Animation library** — Framer Motion, GSAP, CSS transitions only
150
+
151
+ ## Phase 5: Documentation Output
152
+
153
+ After inspection, create these files in `docs/research/`:
154
+ 1. `DESIGN_TOKENS.md` — All extracted colors, typography, spacing
155
+ 2. `COMPONENT_INVENTORY.md` — Every component with structure notes
156
+ 3. `LAYOUT_ARCHITECTURE.md` — Page layouts, grid system, responsive behavior
157
+ 4. `INTERACTION_PATTERNS.md` — Animations, transitions, hover states
158
+ 5. `TECH_STACK_ANALYSIS.md` — What the site uses and our chosen equivalents

- 2. **Browser automation.** Prefer an MCP (Chrome DevTools MCP, Playwright MCP, Browserbase MCP, etc.) when it is healthy. **If MCP is missing or in an error state, run `npm run recon` (Playwright)** see `scripts/recon-playwright.mjs`. It performs **stabilized full-document scrolling** at desktop and mobile, writes merged **`computed-snapshot.json`** + **`MEDIA_MANIFEST.md`**, and **full-page** screenshots under `docs/design-references/`. Use `npm run recon:headed` if headless hits a WAF/challenge page. One-time install: `npx playwright install chromium`. Do not skip extraction — adapt the pipeline to the tools that work.
44
- 3. Validate the resolved URL(s). Normalize and verify each is accessible via your browser MCP tool. If any are invalid, ask the user to correct `launchframe.config.json` (or pass an override) before proceeding.
45
- 4. Verify the base project builds: `npm run build`. The Next.js + shadcn/ui + Tailwind v4 scaffold should already be in place. If not, tell the user to run `npm install` first.
46
- 5. Create the output directories if they don't exist: `docs/research/`, `docs/research/components/`, `docs/design-references/`, `scripts/`. Plan `docs/research/MEDIA_MANIFEST.md` as soon as media is inventoried. For multiple clones, also prepare per-site folders like `docs/research/<hostname>/` and `docs/design-references/<hostname>/`.
47
- 6. When working with multiple sites in one command, optionally confirm whether to run them in parallel (recommended, if resources allow) or sequentially to avoid overload.
30
+ 1. **Browser automation is required.** Check for available browser MCP tools (Chrome MCP, Playwright MCP, Browserbase MCP, Puppeteer MCP, etc.). Use whichever is available — if multiple exist, prefer Chrome MCP. If none are detected, ask the user which browser tool they have and how to connect it. This skill cannot work without browser automation.

  ## Guiding Principles
50
37
 
51
38
  These are the truths that separate a successful clone from a "close enough" mess. Internalize them — they should inform every decision you make.
52
39
 
53
- ### 0. Launchframe priorities: media & motion (do not defer)
40
+ ### 0. Visual crawl priority (images, SVGs, motion first)
54
41
 
55
- **Raster & video are first-class.** Before you treat the page as “mostly typography,” run a dedicated **media inventory** (see `@docs/research/INSPECTION_GUIDE.md` Priority section): every `<img>`, `<picture>` / `<source>`, `<video>` (+ poster), and non-trivial `background-image`. Download to `public/images/` and `public/videos/` and write `docs/research/MEDIA_MANIFEST.md` (URL local path, or `BLOCKED` + reason). Component specs MUST list concrete `public/...` paths; if you use a placeholder, say why in `docs/research/EXTRACTION_LIMITATIONS.md`. Never silently drop a hero layer, reel, or og visual.
42
+ When you traverse the DOM and the Network panel, do **not** treat all nodes equally. Work in this **priority order** so the clone feels like the original, not a wireframe:
56
43
 
57
- **Motion defaults to Framer Motion.** This template lists `framer-motion` as a dependency. After foundation tokens, ensure `import { motion } from "framer-motion"` (and related APIs: `useScroll`, `useTransform`, `AnimatePresence`, `LayoutGroup`, **`useReducedMotion`**) for: scroll-triggered reveals, staggered children, layout transitions, and gestures anything beyond a trivial one-property CSS `transition`. In each spec file, add a **Motion** subsection: trigger, duration, easing, delay/stagger, **tier A–E coverage** (see `AGENTS.md` production polish table), reduced-motion fallback, and **implementation: CSS | framer-motion**. Prefer CSS only when it matches the target exactly without JS.
44
+ 1. **Images (raster + video stills)** Enumerate `<img>`, `<picture>`, responsive `srcset`, `data-*` lazy URLs, **computed `background-image`** on the element and parents (including pseudo-elements), mask images, `<video poster>`, hero media. **Scrape:** download binary assets to `public/images/` (or `public/videos/`) with stable paths referenced in specs. **Create** a replacement PNG/WebP/SVG only when the asset is blocked (CORS, auth cookie, 403), ephemeral, or impossible to URL-fetch use a high-DPI screenshot crop, traced artwork, or CSS gradient approximation, and mark `ASSET_SOURCE: generated` in the component spec with a short reason.
45
+ 2. **SVGs & iconography** — Inline `<svg>`, sprite `symbol` defs, **SVG used as masks/filters**, icon fonts (prefer path extraction). Convert to `@/components/icons.tsx` (or section-local components) with meaningful names. Prioritize crisp edges and correct `viewBox` over shrinking bundle size during emulation.
46
+ 3. **Motion & animation** — CSS `@keyframes`, `animation`, `animation-timeline`, `transition`, `transform`, will-change hints; JS-driven motion (carousel timing, IntersectionObserver reveals); libraries (GSAP, Framer, Lottie JSON, Lenis). Capture **numbers** (ms, easing curves, stagger, scroll thresholds), not adjectives. Include **reduced-motion** behavior if present.
58
47
 
59
- **Illustration & pixel art are production inputs.** Where the target (or post-rebrand layout) lacks convincing visuals, specs MUST allocate **idea-tailored SVG scenes** metaphors drawn from `launchframe.config.json#idea`, documented with **Idea tie-in** per asset — not generic gray placeholders or unrelated clipart. Pixel-art motifs require concept justification plus palette table in the spec.
48
+ Only after the above are accounted for should you spend cycle time on minor text or non-visual refactors. A perfect grid with missing hero art and dead animation still fails the clone.

Missing an overlay image makes the clone look empty even if the background is correct.

- ## Phase 4.5: SaaS Rebrand Pass
456
-
457
- The pixel-perfect clone is done — now re-skin it for the SaaS idea from `launchframe.config.json`.
458
-
459
- **Guiding rule:** swap words and brand marks, leave structure untouched. The original site's visual hierarchy was already validated by a real product team. Your job is to put the user's product into that proven shell, not to redesign it.
460
-
461
- For every section, replace:
462
-
463
- 1. **Product name & logo** — wherever the original brand appears, use the SaaS idea's name (derive a short product name from the `idea` string if one isn't supplied — keep it 1–2 words, easy to lockup). Replace the wordmark text in place. For the logo glyph, either reuse the original SVG silhouette with a fresh fill, or use a Lucide icon that matches the SaaS category (e.g., `Brain` for AI, `Workflow` for automation, `Sparkles` for generative tooling). Do NOT keep the original brand's actual logo file.
464
- 2. **Hero headline & sub-headline** — write fresh copy that pitches the SaaS idea, using the original line lengths and tone as constraints. If the original is 6 words, write 6 words. If it's 14, write 14. Match emphasis, line breaks, and any inline highlighted phrase.
465
- 3. **Feature/section copy** — rewrite each feature card, callout, stat, and testimonial to fit the SaaS idea. Preserve the count and shape of items (3 feature cards stay 3 feature cards; a 4-column logo bar stays 4 columns). Generate plausible customer-logo names — never use real company names you haven't been authorized to use.
466
- 4. **CTA labels** — adapt button text to the SaaS idea ("Start free", "Get a demo", "Try it free", etc.). Keep the CTA hierarchy (primary/secondary) identical to the original.
467
- 5. **Mock data** — for product UI mockups embedded in marketing screenshots (e.g., a fake dashboard inside a hero), generate mock data shaped for the SaaS idea: realistic-looking but fictional rows, charts, conversation logs, etc.
468
- 6. **Imagery** — Replace photography/screenshots that depict the original brand with visuals **authored for this SaaS idea**, not interchangeable decoration. Before designing: derive a **metaphor list** from `idea` (3–6 concrete hooks). Each hero/feature/OG asset gets an **Idea tie-in** sentence in `docs/research/REBRAND.md`. Prefer bespoke SVG scenes (`src/components/marketing/art/`) or raster under `public/images/marketing/` that preserve dimensions/aspect/shadows from the cloned layout. **Avoid:** unrelated filler (e.g. apparel, random lifestyle props when the product is notes/voice), generic gradient-only heroes, Lucide-icon piles unless the reference was already that minimal — those fail the uniqueness bar in `AGENTS.md`.
469
- 7. **Metadata** — update `<title>`, meta description, OG tags, and favicon manifest in `src/app/layout.tsx` to reflect the new SaaS. Generate a simple favicon (initial letter on a brand-colored square) if no asset is provided.
470
-
471
- What you must NOT change in this pass:
472
- - Spacing, padding, typography scale, color tokens, **animation timing & motion choreography** (including Framer Motion `variants` / `transition` props), responsive breakpoints — those are still 1:1 to the original
473
- - Section order, section count, component structure
474
- - Interaction models (scroll-driven stays scroll-driven, etc.)
475
- - Any computed-style value extracted in Phase 3
476
-
477
- After the rebrand pass, the codebase should look like the original site visually but read like the user's SaaS at a glance. Save a short `docs/research/REBRAND.md` summarizing the product name you chose, the headline rewrites, and any assets you swapped — so the user can audit what's clone-derived vs. authored.
478
-
479
- ## Phase 4.6: Production uplift *(sparse references / stronger idea-specific art)*
480
-
481
- Run this pass when **any** of the following is true:
482
-
483
- - The cloned reference is mostly typography with weak imagery (internal demos, minimalist SaaS shells).
484
- - The user asks for **more unique images**, **illustration tailored to the idea**, **stronger visuals**, motion, pixel art, or production polish.
485
- - Visual QA feels “correct but dead” — layout matches but art is generic, unrelated, or repeated stock metaphors.
486
-
487
- **Do not contradict pixel-perfect emulation when cloning a rich reference** — this phase *adds* or swaps **idea-native** imagery only where the brief allows uplift or the reference was inherently flat.
488
-
489
- Checklist (mirror `AGENTS.md` — **uniqueness first**):
490
-
491
- 1. **Idea-tailored imagery** — Metaphor list from `idea`; replace any asset that could belong to another vertical. Per-asset **Idea tie-in** in `docs/research/PRODUCTION_UPLIFT.md` alongside SVG/raster paths.
492
- 2. **Density** — Layered hero + distinct scene per feature card in **one shared visual language** (stroke/accent/grid), still idea-specific.
493
- 3. **Motion tiers** — Implement at minimum **A + B + one of C/D**, optionally **E**: staggered hero load, `whileInView` sections + card stagger, looping ambient (marquee / caret / SVG dash loop), hover lifts / nav scroll shrink, optional light parallax. Gate loops with **`useReducedMotion()`**.
494
- 4. **Brand** — Motif thread + accent tokens in `:root`; favicon / OG echo **this** product narrative.
495

542
471
  - **Don't reference docs from builder prompts.** Each builder gets the CSS spec inline in its prompt — never "see DESIGN_TOKENS.md for colors." The builder should have zero need to read external docs.
543
472
  - **Don't skip asset extraction.** Without real images, videos, and fonts, the clone will always look fake regardless of how perfect the CSS is.
544
- - **Don't defer image/video download to the end.** Run `MEDIA_MANIFEST.md` + `download-assets.mjs` during foundation so components reference real `public/` paths from the first build.
545
- - **Don't fake complex motion with a single CSS `transition` when the target uses staggered, scroll-scrubbed, or layout-driven animation** — use **`framer-motion`** (`motion`, `whileInView`, `variants`, `staggerChildren`) and match duration/easing from extraction.
546
473
  - **Don't give a builder agent too much scope.** If you're writing a builder prompt and it's getting long because the section is complex, that's a signal to break it into smaller tasks.
547
474
  - **Don't bundle unrelated sections into one agent.** A CTA section and a footer are different components with different designs — don't hand them both to one agent and hope for the best.
548

  - **Don't forget smooth scroll libraries.** Check for Lenis (`.lenis` class), Locomotive Scroll, or similar. Default browser scrolling feels noticeably different and the user will spot it immediately.
550
- - **Don't ship interchangeable marketing art.** Random objects, unrelated lifestyle stock, or generic gradients that could match any SaaS violate the **idea-tailored** rule in `AGENTS.md` — every major visual needs a metaphor from `launchframe.config.json#idea`.

+ 1. Split **$ARGUMENTS** into:
19
+ - **URL** — First `http://` or `https://` URL. Normalize (trim, validate). If invalid or missing, ask once for a correct URL.
20
+ - **SaaS idea** — Everything after the URL, typically in quotes. Strip surrounding quotes. If empty, ask for a short product pitch.
21
+
22
+ 2. Optional flags the user might pass (same as the CLI): `--dir` / `-o` for output folder, `--skip-install` to skip `npm install`.
23
+
24
+ ## Run the published CLI
25
+
26
+ Execute the scaffold using the **latest** package from npm (exact intent: **`launchframe@latest`**):
27
+
28
+ ```bash
29
+ npx launchframe@latest "<url>" "<saas-idea>" [--dir <folder>] [--skip-install]
30
+ ```
31
+
32
+ - Use shell-appropriate quoting (PowerShell vs bash). Escape embedded quotes in the SaaS idea.
33
+ - **Output path:** The Launchframe CLI must not write **inside** the npm package / template directory itself (that would recurse). If the open workspace is this repository, run `npx` with `--dir` pointing to a **sibling** path (e.g. `..\\my-app` on Windows, `../my-app` on macOS/Linux) or ask the user for a folder **outside** the repo.
34
+ - Prefer letting the CLI run `npm install` unless the user passed `--skip-install`.
35
+
36
+ ## After scaffold
37
+
38
+ Tell the user:
39
+
40
+ 1. `cd` into the new project directory.
41
+ 2. `npm run dev` to preview the SaaS landing shell.
42
+ 3. Run **`/clone-website <same-reference-url>`** in that project so the agent can reverse-engineer the reference site into components, while keeping the SaaS idea from `launchframe.context.json` / `src/lib/launchframe-config.ts`.
43
+
44
+ ## Fallback (local dev only)
45
+
46
+ If `npx launchframe@latest` is unavailable (offline), from a **checkout of this repo** you may run `node bin/launchframe.mjs "<url>" "<saas-idea>" ...` with the same rules for `--dir` outside the package root.
