At a glance

Add or edit sheetdefinitions JSON for items, categories, variants, credits, layers, or z-positions.

  • A credits entry
  • Calls npm
  • Renaming an asset

What it does

Sheet Definition is an agent skill from LiberatedPixelCup/Universal-LPC-Spritesheet-Character-Generator. Add or edit sheetdefinitions JSON for items, categories, variants, credits, layers, or z-positions. Use when adding art, a new category, a credits entry, or renaming an asset. Copy a neighboring definition; do not invent keys.

Its SKILL.md is about 680 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Character Generator based on Universal-LPC-Spritesheet. The licence is GPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • A credits entry
  • Renaming an asset

Example prompts

  • “/sheet-definition”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 58ce1aa. 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

Sheet Definition loads about 676 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 274 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~61
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~676

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.

description
Add or edit sheet_definitions JSON for items, categories, variants, credits, layers, or z-positions. Use when adding art, a new category, a credits entry, or renaming an asset. Copy a neighboring definition; do not invent keys.

Sheet definitions

Copy a neighboring JSON under sheet_definitions/. Do not invent a schema. Accepted fields: SheetDefinition in scripts/generateSources/items.ts. Human walkthrough and the credits example: CONTRIBUTING.md. Multi-layer example: tail_lizard.json.

Typical required keys: name, type_name, layer_1 (zPos plus body-type paths into spritesheets/), and credits[] (file, authors, licenses, urls; notes is optional).

type_name is the hash key and name supplies the Item half of the Item_variant hash value, so both are part of the URL contract — see catalog.

credits[].file must name the spritesheet file or one of its path-segment ancestors, not an arbitrary string prefix. searchCredit in credits.ts matches credit.file against the path exactly, against path + ".png", or against credit.file + "/", then retries after trimming at the last /. So arms/hands/ring covers arms/hands/ring/stud, but arms/hands/ri covers nothing. Failing to match logs missing credit after searching recursively and then throws missing credit inside ….

Existing category: add PNGs under spritesheets/ and the variant name on the matching definition (variants). Palette-backed items use recolors and do not add a PNG per color — follow Adding Palette Support, do not invent recolors keys.

New category: new JSON next to similar items.

Optional: animations restricts the animations filter; omit it for the default list. Asset renames need aliases on the destination definition and an issue first. Other keys (tags, replace_in_path, match_body_color, …) — copy a neighbor that already uses them.

Then npm run validate-site-sources and commit any dirty CREDITS.csv / z_positions.csv. CREDITS.csv is generate-only. z_positions.csv may be edited as a bulk aid; JSON is the source of truth (npm run z-positions:update writes the CSV back to JSON). The app reads generated dist/*-metadata.js, not the JSON directly; if a new item is invisible after npm run dev, see generated-metadata.
