description: >
  Create Spine 2D skeletal animations from pre-existing character assets (separated body-part PNGs,
  atlas spritesheet, or a full character image). Use this skill whenever the user wants to animate
  a 2D character, create Spine JSON from existing art assets, rig a character with bones, build
  walk/idle/run/attack animations, produce an interactive Spine Web Player preview, or generate
  Spine-compatible export files (.json + .atlas + .png). Also trigger when the user mentions
  "Spine animation", "2D rigging", "skeletal animation", "bone animation", "cutout animation",
  "animate this character", "make this walk", "create walk cycle", or uploads separated character
  body parts and wants them animated. This skill handles the full pipeline: asset analysis,
  skeleton rigging, animation keyframing, Spine JSON export, and interactive HTML5 preview.

# Spine Animation Skill

Turn pre-existing 2D character assets into fully animated, interactive Spine animations.

## Step 0: Set Up Scripts

This skill includes Python scripts that do the heavy lifting. Claude MUST write them to disk
before use. Each script is embedded below — Claude should save them to `/home/claude/spine-scripts/`
at the start of every session.

```bash
mkdir -p /home/claude/spine-scripts
pip install opencv-python Pillow numpy google-generativeai --break-system-packages -q
```

### Embedded Scripts

The following scripts are auto-injected from the repository's `scripts/` directory.
**Claude: read these carefully, then write each one to `/home/claude/spine-scripts/`**
before running the pipeline.
