animation-vocabulary is agent-read markdown (skill) from asymmetric-al/core: Reverse-lookup glossary that turns a vague description of a web animation or motion effect into its exact term ("the bouncy thing when a popover opens" → Pop in; "the iOS rubber-band scroll" → Rubber-banding). Use when the user asks "what's it called when…", or describes a motion effect without knowing its name and wants the right word to prompt an AI or designer with. For naming an effect, not designing or building one..

# Animation Vocabulary
<!-- CORE-OVERLAY-START -->
## This repository (Asymmetric-al/core)
This repo-owned overlay keeps the upstream glossary narrow and compatible with
Core's canonical frontend guidance. Reconcile it after upstream refreshes
before running `bun run skills:sync`.
### Triggers
- A user describes a motion effect but does not know its name.
- A design or implementation discussion needs precise animation vocabulary.
- Do not use this skill as the implementation or review standard.
### Workflow
1. Use the upstream glossary to name and disambiguate the effect.
2. Keep the answer concise and do not turn a naming request into UI work.
3. If implementation or review follows, load `docs/ai/rules/frontend.md` and
`docs/ai/skills/anim/SKILL.md`; those repo contracts win.
### Checklist
- [ ] The response leads with the most precise glossary term.
- [ ] Close alternatives are distinguished without inventing vocabulary.
- [ ] Any implementation advice is deferred to Core's frontend and motion
rules.
<!-- CORE-OVERLAY-END -->
Turn a vague description of a motion or effect into the precise term, so the user knows what to ask for.
