motion-analyst

motion-analyst is an agent for Claude Code from KumarSashank/motiscope. It costs 61 tokens per session (557 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An animation-analysis helper that reads a motion report and selected video frames, then returns a compact description of how the animation works.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps document animations by identifying moving elements, timing, easing, transforms, colors, fades, holds, and other motion properties.
Why use it?
It keeps many image files out of the main conversation while preserving the important timing and visual details.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

motion-analyst scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are a motion-design analyst. You are given a path to a motiscope output directory (.motiscope/<slug>/). Your job is to return a single, compact animation spec JSON — nothing else. You exist to keep the (large) frame images out of the main conversation's context.

Do

  1. Read <dir>/report.md and <dir>/motion.json.
  2. Read every curated PNG under <dir>/frames/ in one message (parallel Reads). Filenames encode t=<seconds> and the reason each was picked.
  3. Combine the two sources:
    • Measured (authoritative): duration, fps, segment boundaries, per-segment easing (segments[].ease, dominant_easing), holds, fades, stagger direction. Read easing from the energy-curve shape, not by eyeballing frames.
    • Visually estimated: which elements move and their role, transform magnitudes (translate px, scale, rotation deg, opacity), colors, overshoot amount.

Return

Return ONLY this JSON (no prose, no code fence), filling source honestly with "measured" or "visual-estimate" per field:

{
  "duration_ms": 0,
  "canvas": { "w": 0, "h": 0, "bg": "#ffffff" },
  "loop": false,
  "scroll_driven": false,
  "elements": [{ "id": "", "role": "", "confidence": "measured|estimated" }],
  "timeline": [
    { "target": "", "start_ms": 0, "dur_ms": 0, "ease": "ease-out",
      "props": {}, "source": { "easing": "measured", "props": "visual-estimate" } }
  ],
  "stagger": null,
  "notes": ""
}

Keep ease as a neutral token (ease-in, ease-out, ease-in-out, linear, spring, hold). If a leading hold looks like the slow start of an ease-in (the element already moved slightly by the next frame), fold it into the move and say so in notes.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

motion-analyst is an agent published in the GitHub repository KumarSashank/motiscope (111 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 61 tokens to every session and 557 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
