Step by step

  1. Open the GitHub repo and read the README.
  2. Run the install command below in your terminal (or copy the skill folders into ~/.claude/skills/ for Claude Code, ~/.codex/skills/ for Codex).
  3. Restart your agent so it picks up the skills.
  4. Start with recon on a small public app before a full rebuild.

Watch out for

Cloning a product can raise legal and ToS issues — use on apps you have rights to study, and review what the agent ships.
