SpriteCook Animate Assets

Use this skill for animation workflows. Pair it with spritecook-workflow-essentials for credits, manifests, safe downloads, and shared defaults.

Requires: A connected SpriteCook MCP server. If disconnected, explain that connection is needed and use the host's native connection flow when authorized. Do not install software or change authentication settings as part of an art task.

Tool

Before animation, inspect the source outline and transparency. Use spritecook-polish-sprites to recover edge pixels from a preserved alpha source when useful, then animate the polished asset ID. Inspect completed animations for edge flicker; the polishing workflow can compare one cutoff across all frames of a supported animation.

animate_game_art

Animate an existing SpriteCook asset into a short pixel-art or detailed animation. The tool returns a job immediately; follow its poll.tool and poll.arguments instead of holding the request open.
