What it does
This skill gives the agent a reference guide for GSAP, a widely used JavaScript animation library. Once installed, when you ask for animated web interfaces, such as entrance effects, sequenced timelines or scroll-driven sections, the agent follows the skill's patterns for timelines, easing, staggering and ScrollTrigger, and knows common fixes for janky or broken animations. The skill is text guidance: it contains code examples the agent can adapt, and it does not itself run code.
Great for
- Front-end developers adding motion to HTML, CSS, JavaScript or React sites
- Designers who want polished entrances, micro-interactions or scroll storytelling built in code
- Developers debugging ScrollTrigger animations that do not fire or leak after navigation
Skip it if
- Projects that only need simple CSS hover transitions, where GSAP adds unnecessary weight
- Users who need guaranteed accessibility without checking: the skill mentions reduced motion only as a question to ask, not as built-in behaviour
Try asking
- “Add a staggered hero entrance animation to my landing page using GSAP”
- “Build a scroll-scrubbed pinned section where panels slide as the user scrolls”
- “Debug why my ScrollTrigger animation isn't firing in this React component”
- “Sequence the nav, title and call-to-action animations on page load using a timeline”

Ask for the task
No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.
Get better results
- Name the framework (plain HTML, Next.js, Vue) so the agent applies the right cleanup and initialisation pattern.
- Ask for reduced-motion support and mobile performance explicitly, since the skill only prompts for these.
- Review the generated code in a browser; the agent's animation output still needs visual checking.
