Improve Product Animations With Actionable Plans

Inconsistent motion can make interfaces feel slow, distracting, or inaccessible. This skill audits animation code and produces prioritized findings with detailed implementation plans.

Install with my Agent

Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.

Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "improve-animations" from https://skillstore.io/skills/emilkowalski-improve-animations.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/emilkowalski-improve-animations/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.

Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it

Using "improve-animations". Audit animations in this dashboard at standard depth.

Expected outcome:

  • High: The keyboard-opened command palette animates on every use, delaying a frequent action.
  • Medium: Several popovers lack reduced-motion alternatives.
  • Next: Select findings one, two, or three for detailed plans.

Using "improve-animations". Write a plan for the inconsistent dropdown entrance.

Expected outcome:

  • Plan 004 targets the dropdown entrance across two components.
  • The plan specifies the repository easing token, timing, transform origin, and reduced-motion behavior.
  • Verification covers rapid toggling, slow playback, and keyboard interaction.

Using "improve-animations". Audit animation performance only.

Expected outcome:

  • High: A frequently updated panel animates layout properties and can trigger repeated layout work.
  • Medium: Broad transitions can animate unintended properties.
  • The report separates confirmed performance issues from items requiring visual measurement.

Security Audit

Medium Risk
v2 โ€ข 7/13/2026 Open versioned report

All 27 static findings are false positives caused by code-formatted prose, CSS examples, read-only search guidance, or a defensive prompt-injection rule. However, SKILL.md includes an explicit execute mode that delegates source modification, conflicting with its read-only description and hard rules. Publication should disclose and constrain this mode.

Delegated Source Modification Conflicts With Read-Only Boundary
The skill claims source analysis is read-only, but execute delegates plan implementation and reconcile updates plan files. This expands behavior beyond the declared boundary.
The hard rules state that only plan files may change, while the execute variant explicitly dispatches implementation in a worktree. The contradiction is direct.

What You Can Build

Prepare a frontend refinement sprint

Audit interactive motion, rank issues by leverage, and create plans for selected fixes.

Standardize a motion system

Find inconsistent easing, duration, spring, and reduced-motion patterns across shared components.

Delegate animation improvements

Convert motion findings into scoped plans that another agent can implement and verify.

Try These Prompts

Run a standard audit
Audit this repository's animations at standard depth. Present verified findings with file locations, then wait for my plan selections.
Focus on accessibility
Audit motion accessibility. Check reduced-motion behavior, hover gating, and essential feedback. Rank confirmed issues and plan my selected findings.
Plan one improvement
Create one self-contained plan to make the command palette open instantly. Inspect repository conventions and include exact boundaries and verification steps.
Audit and prepare delegation
Run a deep performance and cohesion audit. Plan the four highest-leverage findings, including dependencies, execution order, and feel checks.

Best Practices

  • Choose quick, standard, or deep scope based on repository size and available review time.
  • Share the product personality and highest-frequency interactions before the audit.
  • Review and select findings before generating plans or delegating implementation.

Avoid

  • Do not request broad animation fixes without defining scope or interaction priorities.
  • Do not treat source analysis as complete visual validation.
  • Do not run execute mode without explicit approval and independent diff review.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this skill edit application source files?
The default workflow edits only plan files. Execute mode delegates source changes to another agent and requires review.
Which audit scopes are available?
Quick covers high-traffic components, standard covers interactive UI, and deep covers the full repository.
Which animation technologies are supported?
The workflow inspects CSS, WAAPI, Framer Motion, React Spring, GSAP, and repository-specific motion systems.
Does the audit cover accessibility?
Yes. It checks reduced-motion behavior, hover gating, and whether essential visual feedback remains available.
Can source code reveal whether an animation feels right?
Not always. The skill marks uncertain judgments and adds slow-motion, frame-by-frame, or real-device feel checks.
What does the skill produce?
It produces prioritized findings, missed opportunities, detailed plan documents, execution order, dependencies, and verification criteria.
