Animate in Godot 4.7 three ways: AnimationPlayer for keyframed clips (incl. call and signal tracks), AnimationTree with state machines and blend spaces for character animation, and Tween for short procedural/UI tweens via create_tween(). Use when working with AnimationPlayer/AnimationTree nodes in a .tscn, blending character states, sprite-sheet animation, or code-driven Tweens.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Godot Animation (4.x)

Choose and drive the right animation tool: `AnimationPlayer` (clips), `AnimationTree`
(blending/state machines), or `Tween` (short procedural moves). Targets **Godot 4.7**.

## When to use

- Use when playing keyframed animations, blending walk/run/idle states, animating a
  sprite sheet, or tweening UI/objects in code.

**When *not* to use:** the movement *logic* that decides which state to play →
`godot-2d-movement`; UI layout (vs. UI tweening) → `godot-ui-control`; shader-driven
effects → `godot-shaders`.

## Core workflow

1. **Pick the tool:**
   - `AnimationPlayer` — author keyframed clips (transforms, properties, method calls,
     audio, even other animations). The source of truth for clip data.
   - `AnimationTree` — blend and transition between those clips at runtime with a state
     machine and/or blend spaces. Needs an `AnimationPlayer` to pull clips from.
   - `Tween` — fire-and-forget procedural interpolation in code (`create_tween()`); ideal
     for UI pops, fades, and one-off moves.
2. **For 2D sprite sheets:** use `AnimatedSprite2D` + `SpriteFrames`, or keyframe the
   `frame` property in an `AnimationPlayer`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills/godot-animation@sha256:9d32ef721eaa2274

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260808.3727d02, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
