Skill Detail

Rebuild public websites from evidence snapshots with website-rebuild-skill

Use website-rebuild-skill when an agent needs to classify a public site, capture a read-only evidence mirror, reconstruct behavior from shipped assets, and verify the rebuild with console, network, DOM, geometry, and pixel-diff gates.

Tools required
Node.js 22 or newer, Chrome or Chromium, npx for pinned external tools, Agent Skills-compatible runtime such as Claude Code or Codex
Install & setup
Copy the upstream skills/website-rebuild directory into the agent runtime's skills directory. For Claude Code, the README documents: cp -R skills/website-rebuild ~/.claude/skills/website-rebuild. Other Agent Skills-compatible runtimes can use the same skill directory with their own skills path.

Quick brief

## What the agent/operator does

How it works

What this skill actually does

Use website-rebuild-skill to run a disciplined website reconstruction workflow. The agent takes a URL, grades feasibility, captures a read-only mirror with hashes and closure checks, traces minified source back into a human-readable project, and verifies the result against the source snapshot with automated acceptance gates.

The workflow is evidence-led: source snapshots stay immutable, every intentional difference is registered, and acceptance relies on console, network, DOM, geometry, and pixel comparison rather than a visual guess. The upstream repository documents support for Agent Skills-compatible runtimes and includes validated Claude Code and Codex runs.

## When to invoke

Invoke this skill when a user needs a private, auditable reconstruction of a public website for analysis, archival recovery, migration planning, or engineering study, and when the agent must prove what matches and what differs. It is not for quick redesign mockups or normal website building from a brief.

## Scope boundary

This is not a generic scraping library, site-cloning product, or deployment shortcut. The approved scope is classification, evidence capture, reconstruction, verification, and handoff. Keep legal and copyright decisions with the user; default outputs should remain private, noindex, and undeployed unless the user has the rights and explicitly chooses otherwise.
