algorithmic-art SKILL.md skillB
algorithmic-art from canvascoding/canvas-notebook is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add canvascoding/canvas-notebook/algorithmic-art@git:20260616.e235e49Pins git:20260616.e235e49 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Creating algorithmic art using p5.js with seeded randomness and interactive parameter exploration. Use this when users request creating art using code, generative art, algorithmic art, flow fields, or particle systems. Create original algorithmic art rather than copying existing artists' work to avoid copyright violations.
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
Algorithmic philosophies are computational aesthetic movements that are then expressed through code. Output .md files (philosophy), .html files (interactive viewer), and .js files (generative algorithms). This happens in two steps: 1. Algorithmic Philosophy Creation (.md file) 2. Express by creating p5.js generative art (.html + .js files) First, undertake this task: ## ALGORITHMIC PHILOSOPHY CREATION To begin, create an ALGORITHMIC PHILOSOPHY (not static images or templates) that will be interpreted through: - Computational processes, emergent behavior, mathematical beauty - Seeded randomness, noise fields, organic systems - Particles, flows, fields, forces - Parametric variation and controlled chaos ### THE CRITICAL UNDERSTANDING - What is received: Some subtle input or instructions by the user to take into account, but use as a foundation; it should not constrain creative freedom. - What is created: An algorithmic philosophy/generative aesthetic movement. - What happens next: The same version receives the philosophy and EXPRESSES IT IN CODE - creating p5.js sketches that are 90% algorithmic generation, 10% essential parameters. Consider this approach: …

How to install
mdr add canvascoding/canvas-notebook/algorithmic-art@sha256:64c781059bd53c45The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260616.e235e49, 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.
