What it does

When installed, the agent follows a set of written guidelines for web animation: when motion is worth using, recommended timing and easing values, common entrance and hover patterns, performance rules, and support for reduced-motion settings. Asked to add motion to a site, it plans the animation first and then writes CSS or library code that follows those rules. The skill itself is only instructions; it contains no scripts and does not fetch anything online.

Great for

  • Front-end developers who want consistent, restrained animation on a marketing or product site
  • Designers who want a shared set of motion tokens (durations, easing, offsets) before handing off to engineering
  • Teams building a motion system who want accessibility and performance considered from the start

Skip it if

  • Projects that need playful, bouncy or cartoon-style motion, since the skill advises against it and may produce overly restrained results
  • Anyone expecting the skill to verify the output in a browser or measure real performance; it gives guidance, not testing
  • Non-web animation work such as video or game engines, which the guidance does not cover

Try asking

  • “Add a Stripe-style fade and rise entrance to the cards on my pricing page”
  • “Plan a hero animation sequence with labeled beats for our landing page”
  • “Create a motion token set with durations and easing for our product site”
  • “Make our hover and focus interactions subtle and respect reduced motion settings”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Name the brand lane you want (for example Linear for minimal or Apple for cinematic) so the agent picks the right restraint level.
  • State your stack up front (plain CSS, GSAP or Framer Motion) so the code recipe matches your project.
  • Ask explicitly for reduced-motion handling and performance limits on mobile, since the skill asks about these but results improve when you specify them.
