animate

Analyze a feature and add motion that improves clarity, feedback, perceived performance, and polish without making the interface feel slow, noisy, or theatrical.

MANDATORY PREPARATION

Users start this workflow with /animate. Once this skill is active, load $frontend-design — it contains design principles, anti-patterns, and the Context Gathering Protocol. Follow that protocol before proceeding — if no design context exists yet, you MUST load $setup first. Additionally gather: performance constraints.
