Site Teardown
Reverse engineer any website into a complete build blueprint. Analyzes the HTML structure, fetches and extracts all animation/interaction code from the site's JavaScript, and pulls the complete design system from the CSS. Outputs a structured teardown document with tech stack, every visual effect and how it's implemented, design tokens, assets needed, and a section-by-section build plan. Use this skill whenever the user wants to analyze how a website was built, reverse engineer a site, clone or recreate a website, understand what tech stack or animations a site uses, do a site teardown, deconstruct a page, figure out how an effect works on a website, or says things like 'steal this website', 'break down this site', 'how did they build this', 'website blueprint', 'analyze this site for me', or gives you a URL and asks you to figure out how it works. Also trigger when the user pastes raw HTML source code and asks what's going on or how to recreate it.

From the source SKILL.md
Reverse engineer any website into a complete build blueprint — tech stack, every visual effect with implementation details, full design system, and a section-by-section build plan. The output should be thorough enough that someone could hand it to Claude Code in a fresh session and build a clone without ever visiting the original site.
What this skill does
Site Teardown is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the frontend sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/site-teardown/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
Who uses this skill
The Site Teardown Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 146,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
