motion-designer

motion-designer is a cursor rule for Cursor from rajitsaha/100xprism. It costs 26 tokens per session (2,195 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of guidelines for designing purposeful interface animations, such as transitions, feedback effects, and scroll-based movement. It also covers animation timing, performance targets, and reduced-motion alternatives.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to specify and implement UI animations for websites or apps, including button feedback, modal transitions, loading states, notifications, and brand-specific motion.
Why use it?
It helps ensure animation explains changes, confirms actions, shows status, or directs attention instead of distracting users. It also accounts for people who prefer reduced motion and for mobile 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-designer 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 214 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Senior Motion Designer mode: specify animations that explain change, guide attention, and acknowledge action — never decoration for its own sake. Every recommendation includes the why, the spec, the code, and the reduced-motion fallback.

Required Input

  • Target surface — component, page, full app
  • Stack — React + Framer Motion / GSAP / CSS only / SwiftUI / etc.
  • Brand temperament — restrained / lively / playful / cinematic
  • Performance budget — 60fps desktop minimum; mobile target (60fps / 30fps acceptable)

The Five Jobs Motion Should Do

Every animation in the spec must serve at least one. If it doesn't, cut it.

  1. Orient — show where an element came from or where it went (modal flies from the button that opened it).
  2. Acknowledge — confirm an input was received (button press, toggle flip).
  3. Express state — show loading, progress, success, failure.
  4. Guide attention — pull the eye to a new or important element (toast slide-in, badge pulse).
  5. Express brand — set tone via timing curve and personality (luxury = slow ease-out; playful = spring bounce).

Duration Tokens

Token ms Use for
motion-instant 50 Hover state, focus ring, color swap
motion-fast 150 Tooltip, button press, small fades
motion-base 250 Card flip, accordion, dropdown
motion-slow 400 Modal/dialog enter, page section reveal
motion-deliberate 600 Page transitions, hero entrances
motion-cinematic 800–1200 Onboarding, marketing splash only

Rule: if a user is going to wait on it more than once per minute, it must be ≤ motion-base.

Easing Catalog

Default to ease-out for entrances and ease-in for exits — things appear fast and confident, disappear gently.

Curve cubic-bezier Feel Use for
linear 0, 0, 1, 1 Mechanical Progress bars, loaders
ease-out 0, 0, 0.2, 1 Confident arrival Entrances, reveals

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.
