What it does
Once installed, the agent guides you through turning a copied app into your own product. It suggests name candidates and lists trademark, domain, app store and social handle checks for you to run, proposes a new colour palette tested for readability, writes a logo brief and a voice guide, and rewrites common interface text. It also runs a bundled script that searches your project's files and file names for the original app's name, domain and colours, and reports anything left behind.
Great for
- Founders who cloned an existing app and want a distinct name and identity before launch
- Developers who need a systematic check that no original branding remains in their code
- Designers preparing a brief for a new logo and palette
Skip it if
- Getting legal clearance for a trademark: the skill itself says its checks are screening only and a trademark lawyer should do a proper search; the agent cannot run those registry searches for you as verified results
- Copying another company's app with its identity intact, since the skill is built to remove the original's name and look, and using a clone commercially may still raise copyright or other legal issues
- Apps where you have no right to the original code: the skill does not address licensing of the source material
Try asking
- “Name my app: I cloned a scheduling tool and want a new name that is not confusingly similar to the original”
- “Pick a name and colours for my clone and check the palette for contrast”
- “Write a logo brief for my app that works as a favicon and a 1024px iOS icon”
- “Check for leftovers of the original brand in my codebase before I launch”

Ask for the task
No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.
Get better results
- Run sweep.py with --config replica/brand.json after adding the original's name, domains and colours, so the check stays repeatable before every deploy
- Treat every check marked 'to run' as unfinished until you perform it yourself and record the date
- Put the original's logo next to your logo drafts and compare them by eye, as the skill recommends
