What it does

CSS Animations is an agent skill from boraoztunc/skills. CSS animation adapter patterns for HyperFrames. Use when authoring CSS keyframes, animation-delay based timing, animation-fill-mode, animation-play-state, or CSS-only motion that HyperFrames must seek deterministically during preview and rendering.

Its SKILL.md is about 970 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Web animation and motion and Motion graphics. It works with HeyGen. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code skills for copywriting, SEO, design, and more. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Authoring CSS keyframes
  • Animation-delay based timing
  • Animation-fill-mode
  • Animation-play-state

Example prompts

  • “/css-animations”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 645553c. 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:

    • npx

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • developer.mozilla.org

    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

CSS Animations loads about 973 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 265 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~973

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.

CSS animation adapter patterns for HyperFrames. Use when authoring CSS keyframes, animation-delay based timing, animation-fill-mode, animation-play-state, or CSS-only motion that HyperFrames must seek deterministically during preview and rendering.

CSS Animations for HyperFrames

HyperFrames can seek CSS keyframe animations through its css runtime adapter. Use this for simple repeated motifs, background motion, shimmer, glow, masks, and non-sequenced decoration.

For scene choreography, GSAP is usually clearer. CSS animations work best when the motion belongs to one element and has a fixed duration.

Contract

  • Put the animated element in the DOM before runtime initialization finishes.
  • Give timed elements a data-start value so local animation time matches the clip.
  • Use finite animation-duration and animation-iteration-count because the negative-delay fallback cannot represent unbounded duration in environments without WAAPI-backed CSS animations.
  • Prefer animation-fill-mode: both so seeked states hold before and after active motion.
  • Avoid wall-clock JavaScript, hover-triggered state, and class toggles that depend on user events.

The adapter discovers elements with computed animation-name, seeks their browser Animation handles when available, and falls back to pausing with negative animation-delay.

Basic Pattern

html
<div
  id="pulse-ring"
  class="clip pulse-ring"
  data-start="0"
  data-duration="4"
  data-track-index="2"
></div>

<style>
  .pulse-ring {
    width: 280px;
    height: 280px;
    border: 4px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7);
    border-radius: 50%;
    animation-name: pulse-ring;
    animation-duration: 1200ms;
    animation-timing-function: cubic-bezier(0.2, 0, 0, 1);
    animation-iteration-count: 3;
    animation-fill-mode: both;
  }

  @keyframes pulse-ring {
    from {
      opacity: 0;
      transform: scale(0.82);
    }
    35% {
      opacity: 1;
    }
    to {
      opacity: 0;
      transform: scale(1.18);
    }
  }
</style>

Stagger Pattern

Use CSS custom properties to avoid duplicating keyframes:

html
<div class="clip dots" data-start="1" data-duration="3" data-track-index="3">
  <span style="--i: 0"></span>
  <span style="--i: 1"></span>
  <span style="--i: 2"></span>
</div>

<style>
  .dots span {
    display: inline-block;
    width: 18px;
    height: 18px;
    margin-right: 10px;
    border-radius: 50%;
    background: currentColor;
    animation: dot-pop 900ms ease-out both;
    animation-delay: calc(var(--i) * 120ms);
  }

  @keyframes dot-pop {
    from {
      opacity: 0;
      transform: translateY(18px) scale(0.75);
    }
    to {
      opacity: 1;
      transform: translateY(0) scale(1);
    }
  }
</style>

Good Uses

  • Decorative loops with a known repeat count.
  • Mask, glow, shimmer, grain, and subtle parallax layers.
  • Simple one-element entrances where a full JS timeline would be excessive.

Avoid

  • Infinite CSS animations unless you have verified the browser exposes seekable WAAPI-backed CSS animation handles. Prefer a finite iteration count covering the visible duration.
  • Animating layout properties like top, left, width, or height when transforms work.
  • Relying on hover, focus, scroll, or media queries to trigger render-critical motion.
  • Changing animation classes after startup unless another deterministic timeline controls that change.

Validation

After editing CSS animation compositions:

bash
npx hyperframes lint
npx hyperframes validate
