What it does

Replica Deploy is an agent skill from Jakeschincariol/replica-skill. Ships an app clone live on the user's own domain: a preflight gate (tests green, parity must-haves done, rebrand sweep clean, listing linted, legal pages up), production database and env vars, the host, DNS records for the domain and for email, Stripe live mode, OAuth redirects, monitoring, and mobile builds to TestFlight and Play. Use when the user says "deploy it", "ship it", "put it live", "connect my domain", "go to production", "publish the app", or after /replica-launch.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `preflight.md`).

It sits in Mobile, covering Brand strategy and identity, App store release and OAuth and OpenID Connect. It works with Stripe, App Store Connect and Vercel. The repository describes itself as: Eleven free Claude skills that clone any app: reverse-engineer it, rebuild it, test it for bugs, then fix what its users hate. Free, MIT. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says deploy it
  • Connect my domain
  • Go to production
  • Publish the app

Example prompts

  • “deploy it”
  • “ship it”
  • “put it live”
  • “/replica-deploy”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. preflight
  2. production services
  3. host and domain
  4. watch it
  5. mobile, if there is an app

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 77c9436. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3
    • eas
    • npx
    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx and npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Replica Deploy loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 124 tokens; SKILL.md has 539 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~124
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Ships an app clone live on the user's own domain: a preflight gate (tests green, parity must-haves done, rebrand sweep clean, listing linted, legal pages up), production database and env vars, the host, DNS records for the domain and for email, Stripe live mode, OAuth redirects, monitoring, and mobile builds to TestFlight and Play. Use when the user says "deploy it", "ship it", "put it live", "connect my domain", "go to production", "publish the app", or after /replica-launch.

replica-deploy

Reads everything in replica/. Writes replica/deploy.md (the checklist in preflight.md in this folder, filled in).

The rules

  • Nothing goes live without the user's go. Show the preflight results and ask.
  • The user buys and signs in. Claude never buys a domain, enters a card, types a password or pastes a live key. Claude writes the exact DNS records, env var names and commands; the user does the account steps.
  • Not until it is rebranded. The sweep must be clean. No exceptions.

Step 1: preflight

Run every check and paste the results into deploy.md:

bash
npx playwright test                                                  # replica-test
python3 ../replica-diff/parity.py replica/features.csv               # must-haves done
python3 ../replica-brand/sweep.py . --config replica/brand.json      # exit 0: clean
python3 ../replica-launch/listing.py replica/launch/listing.json     # if shipping to stores
npm run build                                                        # production build passes

(Paths are relative to wherever the pack is installed. Under ~/.claude/skills/ that is ~/.claude/skills/replica-diff/parity.py and so on.)

Plus by hand: no open S1 or S2 bugs, privacy policy and terms pages live (listing every processor), cookie banner if you use non-essential cookies in the EU or UK, account deletion works, the favicon, titles and OG image are yours.

Any failure stops the deploy. Say which and why.

Step 2: production services

  • A separate production project for the database (never the dev one), backups on, migrations run by the deploy, not by hand.
  • Env vars set in the host for production, matching .env.example. Live keys only here.
  • Stripe: switch to live mode, recreate products and prices, add the production webhook endpoint and its signing secret, test one real purchase and refund it.
  • OAuth: add the production domain to every provider's redirect URIs and authorised origins. Google scopes that need verification must be approved, or only test users can sign in.
  • Email: the sending domain verified with the provider.

Step 3: host and domain

Default: Vercel for Next.js (Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, Fly or Render otherwise). Connect the repo so main deploys and pull requests get preview URLs.

The domain, after the user buys it at any registrar:

recordnamevalue
A@the host's apex IP (Vercel: shown in the domain settings)
CNAMEwwwthe host's target (Vercel: cname.vercel-dns.com)
TXT@ or a subdomainthe host's verification value, if asked

Email DNS from the email provider: SPF (TXT), DKIM (CNAME or TXT), and a DMARC record starting at v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:you@yourdomain then tightened to quarantine once reports are clean. Without these, your confirmation emails go to spam.

Pick one canonical host (apex or www) and redirect the other. HTTPS is automatic on the hosts above; check it.

Step 4: watch it

Error tracking (Sentry or the host's), uptime checks on the home page and the core flow's API, logs kept, analytics (a privacy-friendly one avoids the cookie banner), and an alert to the user's email or phone. Then do the core flow on the live site yourself, and ask the user to do it on their phone.

Step 5: mobile, if there is an app

Expo: eas build then eas submit to TestFlight and Play internal testing. Native: archive in Xcode, upload to App Store Connect; Gradle bundle to Play Console. The user owns the developer accounts ($99 a year for Apple, $25 once for Google). Beta first, then review with the listing from replica-launch.

Output

replica/deploy.md with every check and its result, the live URL, the DNS records set, and what to watch in the first week. The clone is now an app with your name on it.
