What it does

Improve Animations is an agent skill from mweinbach/agent-coworker. Audit a codebase's animation and motion, produce prioritized improvement plans, and execute selected plans when requested. Use for animation audits, motion roadmaps, or implementation requests such as "improve the animations"; preserve whether the user requested review, planning, or implementation.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `AUDIT.md` and `PLAN-TEMPLATE.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Terminal-first coworker agent (Bun + OpenTUI).

When your agent uses it

  • Animation audits
  • Motion roadmaps
  • Implementation requests such as improve the animations
  • Preserve whether the user requested review

Example prompts

  • “improve the animations”
  • “/improve-animations”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Recon (always first)
  2. Audit (parallel)
  3. Vet, prioritize, confirm
  4. Write plans
  5. Execute when requested

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aab9dc6. 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:

    • git

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, 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

Improve Animations loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,316 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~80
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.5k

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 1,316 words (~2,537 tokens).

“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.”
