anidoodle

Overview

anidoodle is an open-source skill that lets AI agents draw illustrations, animations, interactive web pages, launch videos, and films by writing code. It provides 32 visual styles, code-composed music, and deterministic rendering so the same source reproduces the same output at any size.

Key Features

• 32 visual styles, each with a matching drawing film and style recipe.
• Hand-drawn illustrations, motion graphics, explainer videos, launch videos, and interactive web art generated from code.
• Music composed in code with 21 genres and optional recorded acoustic instruments.
• Deterministic pure-function rendering: the same source redraws the same picture on every machine and size.
• Works as a standard skill folder with Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build, and other agents that read skills.
• Exports PNG, MP4 with score, GIF, WebM, animated PNG, and self-contained HTML.

Use Cases

• Creating brand-consistent hero illustrations, spot art, empty states, and 404 pages for websites.
• Producing explainer diagrams, animated infographics, storyboards, and launch films with original scores.
• Building interactive illustrations such as mascots that follow the cursor or forms that react to input.
• Teaching drawing through step sheets and captioned timelapses, or recreating a photo in a chosen style.

Getting Started

• In Claude Code, add the plugin marketplace with alexgreensh/anidoodle and install anidoodle@alexgreensh-anidoodle.
• In Codex, run codex plugin marketplace add alexgreensh/anidoodle, then use /plugins in the TUI to install anidoodle.
• In Grok Build, run grok plugin marketplace add alexgreensh/anidoodle and grok plugin install anidoodle --trust.
• For other agents, copy the standard skill folder at skills/anidoodle/SKILL.md into a harness that reads skills.
• To drive the engine directly, scaffold a project, install dependencies, and run tools such as still.mjs or render.mjs.

Deployment & Requirements

• Node 20 or newer.
• Stills require a browser; motion output also uses ffmpeg.
• Direct engine use requires installing project dependencies and Playwright Chromium.
• The optional sound pack is a 373 MB download that is verified by hash and unpacked.

Before You Adopt

• License: Apache-2.0. Review its terms before using, modifying, or distributing the project.
• The runtime requires Node 20 or newer.
• The optional acoustic sound pack is a 373 MB download that must be verified and unpacked, and the agent asks before downloading.
