Montara: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/manimgl-best-practices/SKILL.md

manimgl-best-practices is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from abhinavshrivastava950/Montara. It costs 167 tokens per session (2,005 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A set of practical guidelines for ManimGL, the animation library used by 3Blue1Brown to create mathematical visualisations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing or changing ManimGL scenes, including code with InteractiveScene, self.frame, self.embed(), or ShowCreation().
Why use it?
It helps an agent recognise ManimGL-specific code and follow the patterns expected by that version of the library.

Which agent this was written for is unclear — body not stored (licence); the path alone says nothing. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is abhinavshrivastava950/Montara's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on Montara itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything Montara configures →

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

manimgl-best-practices 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 60 executable files (examples/attention_arcs_animation.py, examples/attention_pattern_dots.py, examples/attention_scenes.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 ships with it

60 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
