Overview
Two Agent Skills, one for Manim Community Edition and one for ManimGL, give a coding agent rule files and code examples for writing Manim animations. Each skill loads when it sees the matching import (manim or manimlib) or CLI. Install with `npx skills add adithya-s-k/manim_skill`. The repo includes test scripts that render the examples.
Who it is for: Developers using coding agents to write Manim math animations
Strengths
- Separate skills for Manim Community and ManimGL, which are incompatible APIs
- Rule files cover scenes, animations, mobjects, text, 3D and camera, with code examples
- Test scripts render the examples, with a parallel worker option
- Follows the Agent Skills standard; one npx command installs it
Weaknesses
- Needs Manim, FFmpeg and a full LaTeX install separately to render anything
- Parallel test runs can run out of memory, per the README
- No tagged release; last commit 2026-01-23
- Guidance only for Manim; it does not generate animations itself
What it needs
- no GPU
- Needs Python 3.7+, FFmpeg, LaTeX, manim, manimgl, Node.js (npx)
