Adapt it.

Replace 'VULN' text with 'COMPLEXITY' or 'INEFFICIENCY' in the `VulnerabilityCardFlow` component.
Adjust card colors to reflect code complexity (e.g., yellow for high, green for optimized).
Update the 3D shield icon to a 3D gear or wrench icon for refactoring.
Modify `AutomatedPatchUI` to `RefactorProgressUI`, changing text labels and data points to reflect code analysis and optimization.
Change the 'Republish' button to 'Commit Changes' or 'Deploy Refactored Code' in `BrandActionReveal`.
Update all on-screen text and brand logos to 'CodeSculpt AI' and its associated branding.
Shift the color palette to cool blues and greens, maintaining a contrasting accent color for alerts/highlights.

Synthesizable in Remotion · key components of the replit-auto-protect-remix template.

VulnerabilityCardFlow

Rounded rectangular cards with text (e.g., 'VULN-2026-1659') slide horizontally across the screen, changing color (grey to red to green) and sometimes revealing an exclamation mark or hash symbol. A central 3D shield icon with an exclamation mark rotates and scales in.

+ Code construction recipe

Use `interpolate` for horizontal position and opacity. Animate `backgroundColor` based on vulnerability status. Implement a `spring` animation for the 3D shield icon's scale and rotation on entry. Utilize `map` to render an array of card data.

AutomatedPatchUI

A clean, white UI card appears, populating with dynamic data: project counts, dependency numbers, and a list of critical vulnerabilities. A detailed patch process unfolds with animated checkboxes, progress bars, and status updates (e.g., 'Preparing patch...', 'Running tests...', 'PATCHED').

+ Code construction recipe

Employ `Sequence` and `AbsoluteFill` for scene composition. Use `interpolate` for number counting animations and progress bar filling. Implement `spring` for UI element pop-ins and status changes. Text typing effects can be achieved with `split` and `map` over characters.

BrandActionReveal

A 'Republish' button animates in with a click interaction, followed by a quick transition to a final brand message and logo. Text appears with a subtle glow and the Replit logo fades in.

+ Code construction recipe

Use `spring` for button scale and color change on click. Implement `AbsoluteFill` with `interpolate` for quick wipe transitions. Text reveal can use `interpolate` on opacity and `textShadow` for a glow effect. Logo fade-in with `interpolate` on opacity.
