A Claude Code plugin for hand-drawn-looking 2D animation written as code: a detail guide for surfaces, character rigs such as an anatomically detailed ant, brush and watercolour pens, and sound synthesised from the same timeline as the picture. A render harness makes contact sheets and frame strips, checks frames render the same in or out of order, and outputs a frame-exact MP4. Install through the Claude plugin marketplace; it needs only Node 20+ and FFmpeg, with no browser, GPU or API keys.
