What is animate?
A Claude Code skill that makes short animated videos entirely in code: one , drawn and scored procedurally, deterministic frame by frame, rendered to MP4 with a headless browser and ffmpeg. Explainers, histories, little stories — in one of the built-in styles, or in a new look matched from your own references.
