URL Clone (AI)

A generation flow where the user pastes a public URL and the AI builder fetches, analyzes, and rebuilds the site as editable source code. VULK uses headless Chromium plus vision models to capture both DOM and visual style.

URL Clone (AI)

URL clone is the workflow where the user supplies the address of a live site and the platform reproduces it as a fresh, editable codebase — not a screen-scrape, but a rebuilt project with the same structure, copy, fonts, and palette. The pipeline combines headless browser rendering (to capture the fully-hydrated DOM and computed styles), full-page screenshot capture (so a vision model can read visual hierarchy the DOM misses), and structured extraction (sections, routes, color tokens).

In VULK, URL clone runs the target through a Playwright-driven Chromium pool, captures DOM + screenshot at multiple breakpoints, normalizes the result into a Genome spec, and hands it to the standard generation agent. Output is a React or Next.js project. The user owns the resulting code and is responsible for respecting the source site's licensing — VULK clones structure and style, not branded logos or copyrighted copy.
