What it does

When installed, the agent knows how to build interactive web motion with Anime.js, a JavaScript animation library. It can sequence several animations on a timeline, stagger elements so they appear one after another, animate SVG shapes, and choose spring or elastic easing. It also reminds the agent to respect reduced-motion settings, avoid hijacking scrolling, and check which major version of Anime.js is installed before writing code.

Great for

  • Front-end developers adding choreographed animations to landing pages or product sites
  • Designers working with developers who want staggered reveals or animated SVG graphics
  • Teams already using Anime.js who want consistent code patterns

Skip it if

  • Simple hover or fade effects that plain CSS transitions handle well, since the skill leans toward heavier animation
  • Projects that have not chosen Anime.js, because the examples assume that library and its v3 API
  • Sites where motion must be minimal for accessibility or performance reasons, unless the agent is carefully instructed to follow the reduced-motion guidance

Try asking

  • “Create a staggered fade-and-slide reveal for the cards in my pricing grid using Anime.js”
  • “Animate this SVG logo path so it draws itself on page load”
  • “Build a timeline that sequences my hero text and hero image with overlapping motion”

  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

  • State your Anime.js version up front so the agent uses the correct API and does not mix v3 and v4 syntax
  • Ask for a reduced-motion fallback and a cleanup step for unmounting components, since the skill recommends both
  • Test animations in a real browser and check performance, because the skill's will-change advice is only a hint
