What it does

Framer Motion is an agent skill from AThevon/genjutsu. Framer Motion / Motion sub-skill - AnimatePresence, layout animations, gestures, motion values.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/api.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Web animation and motion. It works with Motion, npm and React. The repository describes itself as: Creative coding skills for Claude Code, claude.ai and Cowork. Motion, micro-interactions and design systems across Web (GSAP, Motion, Three.js, CSS), Android (Jetpack Compose)…

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Web animation and motion

Example prompts

  • “/framer-motion”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1f518a7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Framer Motion loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 409 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~27
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 409 words (~1,856 tokens).

“Rule: Framer Motion for React UI interactions (modals, toasts, reorder, shared layout). GSAP for complex timelines, cinematic scroll-driven, SVG morphing.”
