Directs the creation of a code-made animation or video in drawn-by-code, from brief to final MP4. Use it whenever the user asks for a video, animation, motion graphics, explainer, product/launch video, reel, intro, animated logo or "a test" of a style; also to resume an experiment in sandbox/. Orchestrates the other skills (engine, review, sound and the chosen style's skill).
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
# Animate: from brief to video Every video is made **with code** (2D canvas, deterministic, frame by frame) and reviewed by looking at real frames. Nothing is signed off without being rendered and looked at. ## 0 · Before anything - `sh engine/setup.sh` if there is no `node_modules/` or `ffmpeg` is missing. - Read `sandbox/INDEX.md` (what has already been tried) and the relevant style skill. - Available styles: folders in `styles/` with their skill `.claude/skills/style-*`. If the request fits none of them, use the **new-style** skill before going on. ## 1 · Brief (don't animate without one) `node engine/new.mjs <name> --style <style> --aspect 16:9 --duration <s>` creates `sandbox/YYYY-MM-DD-<name>/` with `brief.md`, `scene.js` and `review.md`. Fill in `brief.md` with the user (ask only what you can't infer): what it's for, the idea in one sentence, literal on-screen text, format, music, what must not happen. If there is a product or brand, **nothing promises more than its website**: note the source of every claim. **The brand's logo is traced, never drawn by eye.** Take the path from the site's SVG …

How to install
mdr add illodev/drawn-by-code/animate@sha256:0ed8d76f484a23e7The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.3c9c949, 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.
