Codeptor

Generate animated ASCII art, dithered visuals, and shader-like effects as self-contained React/TSX components. Use when the user wants to create ASCII backgrounds, dithered image/video effects, CRT/retro overlays, matrix rain, noise fields, halftone patterns, particle systems, braille art, terminal aesthetics, or any text/character-based visual effect for the web. Supports both generative (procedural, no input) and source-based (images, video, webcam to ASCII) modes. Also triggers when the user wants to convert an image to ASCII, add a dither effect, create a canvas shader component, build a retro or terminal background, animate characters, or create any character-grid visual. Even partial matches like ASCII component, dither, character art, CRT effect, halftone, noise background, pixel art canvas, text art, or generative canvas should trigger this skill.

Complete engine for ASCII art, dithering, halftone, and character-based shaders over images and videos. 14 algorithms (Floyd-Steinberg, Bayer, Atkinson, blue noise, Riemersma, Stucki, Sierra, JJN), 40+ charsets, 9 art styles, WebGL/WGSL/GLSL shaders, CRT/bloom/glitch effects, color science (OKLAB), video pipeline, React components. Use when converting images or video to ASCII, applying dithering or halftone effects, building retro/CRT/terminal visuals, writing GPU dithering shaders, rendering braille or block characters, or any character-grid visual. Triggers on: ASCII, dither, halftone, error diffusion, character art, text art, retro rendering, stippling, blue noise, Bayer, braille, CRT, scanline, image-to-text, video-to-ASCII, mosaic.
