Use when building creative browser demos with @chenglou/pretext — DOM-free text layout for ASCII art, typographic flow around obstacles, text-as-geometry games, kinetic typography, and text-powered generative art. Produces single-file HTML demos by default.
Configure and use Honcho memory with NasTech -- cross-session user modeling, multi-profile peer isolation, observation config, dialectic reasoning, session summaries, and context budget enforcement. Use when setting up Honcho, troubleshooting memory, managing profiles with Honcho peers, or tuning observation, recall, and dialectic settings.
Knowledge comics (知识漫画): educational, biography, tutorial.
Generate flat, minimal light/dark-aware SVG diagrams as standalone HTML files, using a unified educational visual language with 9 semantic color ramps, sentence-case typography, and automatic dark mode. Best suited for educational and non-software visuals — physics setups, chemistry mechanisms, math curves, physical objects (aircraft, turbines, smartphones, mechanical watches), anatomy, floor plans, cross-sections, narrative journeys (lifecycle of X, process of Y), hub-spoke system integrations (smart city, IoT), and exploded layer views. If a more specialized skill exists for the subject (dedicated software/cloud architecture, hand-drawn sketches, animated explainers, etc.), prefer that — otherwise this skill can also serve as a general-purpose SVG diagram fallback with a clean educational look. Ships with 15 example diagrams.
Generate project ideas via creative constraints.

Use when users request: animated explanations, math animations, concept visualizations, algorithm walkthroughs, technical explainers, 3Blue1Brown style videos, or any programmatic animation with geometric/mathematical content. Creates 3Blue1Brown-style explainer videos, algorithm visualizations, equation derivations, architecture diagrams, and data stories using Manim Community Edition.
This is educational cinema. Every frame teaches. Every animation reveals structure.
Before writing a single line of code, articulate the narrative arc. What misconception does this correct? What is the "aha moment"? What visual story takes the viewer from confusion to understanding? The user's prompt is a starting point — interpret it with pedagogical ambition.
Geometry before algebra. Show the shape first, the equation second. Visual memory encodes faster than symbolic memory. When the viewer sees the geometric pattern before the formula, the equation feels earned.
First-render excellence is non-negotiable. The output must be visually clear and aesthetically cohesive without revision rounds. If something looks cluttered, poorly timed, or like "AI-generated slides," it is wrong.
Opacity layering directs attention. Never show everything at full brightness. Primary elements at 1.0, contextual elements at 0.4, structural elements (axes, grids) at 0.15. The brain processes visual salience in layers.
Breathing room. Every animation needs self.wait() after it. The viewer needs time to absorb what just appeared. Never rush from one animation to the next. A 2-second pause after a key reveal is never wasted.
Cohesive visual language. All scenes share a color palette, consistent typography sizing, matching animation speeds. A technically correct video where every scene uses random different colors is an aesthetic failure.
Run scripts/setup.sh to verify all dependencies. Requires: Python 3.10+, Manim Community Edition v0.20+ (pip install manim), LaTeX (texlive-full on Linux, mactex on macOS), and ffmpeg. Reference docs tested against Manim CE v0.20.1.

Use monospace fonts for all text. Manim's Pango renderer produces broken kerning with proportional fonts at all sizes. See references/visual-design.md for full recommendations.
MONO = "Menlo" # define once at top of file
Text("Fourier Series", font_size=48, font=MONO, weight=BOLD) # titles
Text("n=1: sin(x)", font_size=20, font=MONO) # labels
MathTex(r"\nabla L") # math (uses LaTeX)
Minimum font_size=18 for readability.
Never use identical config for all scenes. For each scene:
Before any code, write plan.md. See references/scene-planning.md for the comprehensive template.
One class per scene. Every scene is independently renderable.

BG = "#1C1C1C"
