This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 6 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
animation-vocabulary from frankxai/claude-skills-library is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
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.
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
# Animation Vocabulary
Turn a vague description of a motion or effect into the precise term, so the user knows what to ask for.
## Quick Start
The user describes an effect loosely. You return the matching term(s) in this format:
```
**Stagger** — Animate several items one after another with a small delay between each, creating a cascade.
```
If several terms could fit, list the best match first, then 1–2 alternates with a one-line note on how they differ.
## Instructions
1. **Read for intent, not keywords.** Users describe what they *see* or *feel* ("springy", "slides off", "draws itself in"), not the technical name. Map the sensation to the glossary below.
2. **Quote the glossary verbatim.** Its descriptions are authoritative — use them as-is, don't paraphrase.
3. **Disambiguate close terms.** When two compete (*Clip-path* vs *Mask*, *Pop in* vs *Bounce*, *Shared element transition* vs *Layout animation*), contrast them so the user can pick.
4. **When nothing matches exactly,** name the closest term and say plainly it's an approximation, or describe the effect in the glossary's vocabulary (e.g. "that's a *stagger* of *scale-in* entrances").

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260727.cb1d1d1, 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.
