animate

animate is a skill for Claude Code from rockyflux/yq-workflow. It costs 53 tokens per session (1,757 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of animate, MIT.

A review and enhancement process for adding purposeful movement to user interfaces, such as transitions, hover effects, feedback, and other small interactions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It assesses features for missing feedback, abrupt changes, unclear relationships, guidance opportunities, and appropriate motion across the stated audience and performance constraints.
Why use it?
It helps users understand state changes, receive confirmation after actions, and follow the interface more easily.

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

animate 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.

Origin

This is a copy

98% identical to animate — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 175 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Analyze a feature and strategically add animations and micro-interactions that enhance understanding, provide feedback, and create delight.

MANDATORY PREPARATION

Invoke /frontend-design — it contains design principles, anti-patterns, and the Context Gathering Protocol. Follow the protocol before proceeding — if no design context exists yet, you MUST run /teach-impeccable first. Additionally gather: performance constraints.


Assess Animation Opportunities

Analyze where motion would improve the experience:

  1. Identify static areas:

    • Missing feedback: Actions without visual acknowledgment (button clicks, form submission, etc.)
    • Jarring transitions: Instant state changes that feel abrupt (show/hide, page loads, route changes)
    • Unclear relationships: Spatial or hierarchical relationships that aren't obvious
    • Lack of delight: Functional but joyless interactions
    • Missed guidance: Opportunities to direct attention or explain behavior
  2. Understand the context:

    • What's the personality? (Playful vs serious, energetic vs calm)
    • What's the performance budget? (Mobile-first? Complex page?)
    • Who's the audience? (Motion-sensitive users? Power users who want speed?)
    • What matters most? (One hero animation vs many micro-interactions?)

If any of these are unclear from the codebase, Ask the user using AskUserQuestion.

CRITICAL: Respect prefers-reduced-motion. Always provide non-animated alternatives for users who need them.

Plan Animation Strategy

Create a purposeful animation plan:

  • Hero moment: What's the ONE signature animation? (Page load? Hero section? Key interaction?)
  • Feedback layer: Which interactions need acknowledgment?
  • Transition layer: Which state changes need smoothing?
  • Delight layer: Where can we surprise and delight?

IMPORTANT: One well-orchestrated experience beats scattered animations everywhere. Focus on high-impact moments.

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.
