Open-source skill helps coding agents make Manim animations

is a for making math and technical explainer animations from simple prompts. A person describes the concept, then the follows a workflow for planning, creating scenes, rendering, stitching scenes together, and reviewing the result.

Docker handles the runtime, while Manim creates the animation. This means the user does not need to install Manim, LaTeX, or ffmpeg directly on their computer.

The skill is meant to work with tools such as Codex, Claude Code, , OpenCode, and other coding tools that support . One example use case is animating a proof that the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

Key points

  • is an skill for that generate Manim animations.
  • The workflow includes planning, scene creation, rendering, stitching, and review.
  • Docker reduces the need to install Manim, LaTeX, or ffmpeg directly.
  • It targets Codex, Claude Code, , OpenCode, and similar agent-skill tools.
  • The main use case is explainer-style animation for math and technical ideas.
