60fps-animation

60fps-animation is a skill for Claude Code from iart-ai/web-animation-skills. It costs 79 tokens per session (2,678 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for making web animations smooth by choosing browser-friendly CSS properties. It covers animations involving layout, painting, transforms, opacity, and the FLIP technique for moving or resizing elements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when fixing choppy hover, scroll, position, size, shadow, or height animations. It also applies when reordering cards, moving elements between containers, or reviewing animation code for performance.
Why use it?
Animations that repeatedly recalculate page layout or redraw complex visuals can stutter. This guidance helps identify those cases and replace them with approaches that reduce per-frame browser work.

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

60fps-animation 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 11d 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 — 211 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Performant Web Animation

Eliminate the #1 cause of janky web animation: animating properties that force the browser to recalculate layout (reflow) or repaint on every frame. The browser renders in stages — layout → paint → composite. Animating width, height, top, left, margin, padding, box-shadow, or filter re-runs layout and/or paint each frame, blocking the main thread. Animating transform and opacity runs entirely on the compositor (often the GPU), skipping layout and paint, which is what makes animation smooth at 60/120fps.

When to use

Use when an animation stutters or drops frames, when a hover/scroll effect feels heavy, when animating size/position/shadow, when a layout change needs to animate smoothly (cards reordering, an element moving between containers), when animating height: auto, or when reviewing animation code for performance.

Core rule: animate only transform and opacity

Map every "expensive" animation to a cheap equivalent.

Animating (expensive) Triggers Replace with (cheap)
width / height Layout + Paint transform: scaleX()/scaleY() (+ FLIP for true size)
top / left / margin Layout + Paint transform: translate()
box-shadow Paint Animate opacity of a pseudo-element holding the shadow
filter: blur() Paint (heavy) Cross-fade two layers via opacity, or accept sparingly
background-position Paint transform: translate() on a child layer
color / background Paint Often acceptable; or cross-fade layers

Position and size via transform

/* BAD: animates layout every frame */
.box { transition: left 300ms, width 300ms; left: 0; width: 100px; }
.box:hover { left: 200px; width: 200px; }

/* GOOD: compositor-only */
.box {
  transition: transform 300ms ease;
  transform: translateX(0) scaleX(1);
  transform-origin: left center;
}
.box:hover { transform: translateX(200px) scaleX(2); }

scaleX distorts inner content (text stretches). For true resizing without distortion, use FLIP.

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.
