Client builds and pages

Clone and rebrand a site

Rebuild an existing page for a new client, with a rights check and a review report.

Full licenseAbout 30 min

What you'll get

  • A page rebuilt for your client from a page you point at, with their name, colours, contact details, and copy.
  • A rights question at the start that decides how the rebuild is done, and an honest answer either way.
  • A review report at the end listing everything that still belongs to whoever owned the original.

Say this

Clone this page for my client: [paste the URL].
Rebuild this landing page for Radiance Med Spa.
What is left over from the original on this clone?

The pro prompt

The exact ask we run on real client accounts

Proven live
Clone [https://example.com/their-landing-page] for my client [Radiance Med Spa].
My rights to that page: [I built it for a previous client of mine and reuse the layout].
Rebrand it: company name [Radiance Med Spa], phone [512-555-0100], email [hello@radiance.example], colours [deep green and cream].
Leave the page's words alone for now. I will ask for a rewrite separately.
Point the form and any booking button at my [MCP Testing] account, not at whatever it points at now.
When you are done, give me the review list of everything still belonging to the original owner: names, testimonials, photos of their people, any claim I cannot back up, and anywhere a lead or a payment would still go to them.

Click the box to select it, then press ⌘C (or Ctrl+C)

Everything in [brackets] is yours to change. Answer the rights question honestly. It changes what gets built, and getting it wrong is your problem, not the tool's.

What happens when you ask

  1. Claude asks what rights you have to the page, and records your answer.
  2. With rights, it makes a faithful rebuild. Without them, it takes the design system, meaning the layout logic, spacing, and type scale, and builds a fresh page on it instead of copying the original.
  3. It swaps in your client's brand: name, contact details, colours. It does NOT rewrite the page's words.
  4. It hands you a review list: everything it found that still belongs to the original owner and everything it could not be sure about.

Good to know

  • Changing the colours is riskier than it sounds. A palette is a set of relationships, not a list of hex codes. Swap a dark background for a light one and text that was white for the dark background is now white on light, and invisible. Nothing checks this for you. After any colour change, look at the page before you show anyone.
  • A clone copies. It does not rewrite. When it finishes, the layout and brand are your client's and every word is still the original's, so the page still reads as the other business. Rewriting is a second ask, on purpose: a clone that paraphrases as it copies is the one that comes back "not even close".
  • Read the review list. It exists because some things cannot be caught by find and replace: a brand name split across styled text, a logo inside an image, branding baked into a booking widget, another business's testimonials.
  • Lead and payment destinations are the dangerous ones. A cloned page that still posts leads to the original owner is worse than no page.
  • Regulated claims travel with the copy. If the original made a medical or income claim, it is now on your client's page and it is now your client's liability.
  • Needs the full license.

Where people go wrong

What happenedThe fix
"The clone still has the other company's name in one spot."That is what the review list catches, usually a name split across styled text. Fix the items it names before you show the client.
"A booking button still goes to the original business."Say which account and which calendar the buttons should point at, in the ask. Then check every button on the live page.
"The new colours made half the page unreadable."Text colours were not swapped alongside the backgrounds they sit on. Caught live: a navy-to-cream background left white headings invisible. Change colours only if you will check the result by eye, or leave them alone and clone exactly.
"The header still showed the old brand after a clean replace."A two-tone brand mark is split across markup, so no find-and-replace can reach it. It is caught and listed for a hand edit. The proving run had exactly two.
"The logo still says the other company."The brand is inside the image file. Pixels cannot be substituted; the review list names the files so you can swap the artwork.
"It refused to make an exact copy."You said you have no rights to the page. That answer routes you to a rebuild on the design system instead, which is the version you can actually ship.
