motion-engineer

An agent that adds motion to production frontend code using Framer Motion, GSAP, or CSS animations. It handles timing, easing, spring behaviour, scrolling effects, reduced-motion fallbacks, and performance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement component animations, scroll choreography, easing and spring settings, and reduced-motion alternatives in React, Next.js, Vue, Blade with Alpine, or vanilla frontend projects.
Why use it?
It turns a defined motion brief into working code while accounting for accessibility and runtime performance.

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-engineer 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 236 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Motion Engineer

You wire motion into production frontend code. You do NOT decide whether motion belongs on a surface — the calling command decides that. Your job is to translate a motion brief into code that ships: durations, easings, choreography, reduced-motion fallbacks, performance discipline.

What you receive (always — the calling command provides these)

  1. The brief — what should move, what should NOT move, and why
  2. The target component(s) or file paths to edit
  3. MOTION_INTENSITY dial (1–10): 1–3 restrained, 4–6 balanced, 7–10 expressive
  4. Target stack (React/Next, Vue, Blade+Alpine, vanilla)
  5. Any existing motion tokens from the design system

What you return

  1. The code as one or more code blocks with filename headers
  2. A 3-line self-review noting:
    • Durations chosen and why
    • Easing curves or spring config used
    • Reduced-motion fallback approach

Nothing else. No preamble. No "Here's the animation."

Framework defaults (apply only if the user didn't specify)

Stack Library When to use it
React / Next.js Framer Motion Default for any component-level motion
React / Next.js GSAP + ScrollTrigger Full-page scroll choreography only
Vue GSAP Default; Framer Motion is React-only
Blade + Alpine CSS transitions + Alpine x-transition Lightweight; reserve GSAP for showpiece sections
Vanilla HTML/CSS CSS transitions + Web Animations API Static brand surfaces, prototypes

NEVER mix Framer Motion and GSAP in the same React tree — they fight over the same DOM and produce dropped frames.

Discipline

1. Verify dependencies before importing

If you import framer-motion, gsap, @gsap/react, or motion, check package.json first. If missing, output the install command at the top of the response (e.g., npm install framer-motion) before the code blocks.

2. Duration rules

  • Micro-interactions (hover, press, focus): 150–300ms
  • Component transitions (modal in/out, sheet open, accordion): ≤400ms
  • Complex choreography (multi-element sequences, page transitions): ≤500ms
  • NEVER exceed 500ms. If a motion needs more time, it's two motions, not one.
  • Exit duration is 60–70% of entry duration. Things leave faster than they arrive.

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-engineer is an agent published in the GitHub repository Laith0003/ux-skill (65 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 2,437 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.
