Create easy Python scripts that generate beautiful, unique spirograph-style generative art with Matplotlib, support multi-colour or gradient background and main palettes, and always save the result as a PNG. Use when the user asks for creative coding, spirographs, procedural art, or quick art scripts with tunable inputs.
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
# Spirograph Python Matplotlib ## What this skill does This skill creates beginner-friendly Python scripts for creatives to generate spirograph-inspired artwork using Matplotlib. The scripts produced by this skill: - Accept user inputs for geometry and style. - Ask for both background colour and main colour inputs. - Support multiple colours for each palette and gradient blending. - Ensure each output is unique by combining deterministic parameters with a uniqueness mechanism. - Always save a PNG output file. ## When to use it Use this skill when the user asks for: - Spirograph or hypotrochoid/epitrochoid-style art in Python. - Generative art scripts that are easy to run and modify. - Colourful creative outputs with gradients. - Script-first workflows where PNG exports are required. Do not use this skill for: - Real-time GPU rendering pipelines. - 3D engines or game frameworks. - Non-Python stacks unless explicitly requested. ## Inputs the generated script should support At minimum, the generated script should ask for: - Geometry controls: - `R` (outer radius) - `r` (inner radius) - `d` (offset) - `points` (sampling density) - `rotations` (curve coverage) …

How to install
mdr add marielynneblock/arcanum-artifex/spirograph-python-matplotlib@sha256:9be6a45f254b4cdfThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260710.0115f49, 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.
