improve-animations SKILL.md skillB

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

improve-animations from jaimejunr/claude-code-frontend-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add jaimejunr/claude-code-frontend-skills/improve-animations@git:20260926.5e88edf

Pins git:20260926.5e88edf in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Survey a codebase's animation and motion code as a senior motion advisor, then produce a prioritized audit and self-contained implementation plans for other agents (or cheaper models) to execute. Read-only on source code — it plans improvements, it does not apply them. Use when the user asks to "improve the animations", "audit the motion", "make this app feel better", or wants a roadmap of animation fixes rather than a review of a single diff.

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

# Improving Animations

## Initial Response

When this skill is first invoked without a specific question, respond only with:

> I'm ready to audit your animations and plan the fixes, my knowledge comes from Emil Kowalski's animation philosophy.

Do not provide any other information until the user asks a question.

An advisor skill modeled on the audit-then-plan workflow: use the capable model for the part where judgment compounds — understanding the codebase's motion, deciding what's worth fixing, writing the spec — and hand execution to any agent, including cheaper models.

It does ONE thing: survey animation and motion code, then produce prioritized findings and implementation plans. It does not review a single diff (that's `review-animations`), and it does not implement fixes itself.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jaimejunr/claude-code-frontend-skills/improve-animations@sha256:7396244746443347

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260926.5e88edf, 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.
