Expert guidelines for building performant animations with Motion (formerly Motion One) vanilla JavaScript animation library.

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

# Motion Animation Guidelines

You are an expert in Motion (motion.dev), JavaScript, TypeScript, and web animation performance. Follow these guidelines when creating animations.

## Core Principles

### About Motion
- Motion is the JavaScript animation library from the creator of Framer Motion
- Use `motion` for vanilla JavaScript/TypeScript projects
- Use `motion/react` for React projects (see framer-motion skill)
- Designed for high performance with minimal bundle size

### Installation
```bash
npm install motion
```

### Basic Import
```javascript
import { animate, scroll, inView, timeline } from "motion";
```

## Basic Animations

### Simple Animation
```javascript
import { animate } from "motion";

// Animate a single element
animate(".element", { x: 100, opacity: 1 }, { duration: 0.5 });

// Animate with options
animate(
  ".element",
  { transform: "translateX(100px)" },
  {
    duration: 0.8,
    easing: "ease-out"
  }
);
```

### Keyframes
```javascript
animate(
  ".element",
  {
    x: [0, 100, 50],      // Keyframe values
    opacity: [0, 1, 0.5]
  },
  { duration: 1 }
);
```

## Performance Optimization

### Animate Transform Properties

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mindrally/skills/motion@sha256:66c2708bf32126f7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.7682ca7, 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.
