Project install by default; add -g for ~/.claude/skills/.

GitHub CLI
$ gh skill install n1m21n/Infinite new-effect-node --agent claude-code

Project scope by default; add --scope user for a personal install. Needs GitHub CLI 2.90.0 or later (public preview).

Manual copy
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/n1m21n/Infinite.git skills-src && mkdir -p .claude/skills && cp -r skills-src/.claude/skills/new-effect-node .claude/skills/new-effect-node && rm -rf skills-src

What it does

New Effect Node is an agent skill from n1m21n/Infinite. Procedure for adding an Effects/Color node: FilterDef table entry vs C++ class, shared GLSL preamble, the caching trap, exit criterion. Use when implementing an image effect or colour-grading module, writing a prompt for one, or when a filter is black/frozen/doesn't animate or params don't reach the shader.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.5k 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 Game Development, covering Shaders and Caching. It works with C++. The repository describes itself as: Infinite is a node-based audiovisual workstation — real-time GPU video compositing, procedural 3D geometry, modular synths, DSP, and VST3/AU plugin hosting.

When your agent uses it

  • Implementing an image effect
  • Colour-grading module
  • Writing a prompt for one
  • A filter is black/frozen/doesnt animate

Example prompts

  • “t animate or params don”
  • “/new-effect-node”

Workflow steps

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

  1. The one thing that makes this category different
  2. Read these before writing code
  3. The shared GLSL contract
  4. The caching bug trap — read this before anything else
  5. The wiring checklist (table-entry path — the common case)
  6. Bug traps, each of which has already happened in this codebase
  7. Tests
  8. Exit criterion — state it machine-checkably in every prompt
  9. Prompt template for a fresh session

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f393709. 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:

    • node

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

New Effect Node loads about 3.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,612 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~81
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.5k

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 1,612 words (~3,484 tokens).

“The standard procedure for adding a new Effects/Color/Compositing node to Infinite — the FilterDef table pattern, when it's a table entry vs a real C++ class, the shared GLSL preamble, the caching bug trap that has already happened here, and…”
