Animation Spec Skill

Purpose

Generate comprehensive animation specifications including easing curves, timing values, and motion design guidelines for consistent UI animations.

Capabilities

• Define custom easing curves (cubic-bezier)
• Calculate animation timing for different contexts
• Generate CSS animation keyframes
• Create Lottie animation specifications
• Document motion design guidelines
• Export animation tokens

Target Processes

• component-library.js (interactionAnimationTask)
• hifi-prototyping.js
• design-system.js

Integration Points

• CSS animations
• Lottie animations
• Framer Motion
• GSAP

  animationType: 'entrance',
  duration: { fast: 150, normal: 300, slow: 500 },
  easing: {
    standard: 'cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.0, 0.2, 1)',
    decelerate: 'cubic-bezier(0.0, 0.0, 0.2, 1)',
    accelerate: 'cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.0, 1, 1)'
  },
