# Visual Flow GIF
Use this skill when a user wants to turn source material into a clear animated flow diagram.
The output should include:
- A static PNG diagram.
- An animated GIF with visible motion.
- The JSON spec used to render the diagram when useful for later edits.
## Workflow
1. Read the source material and identify the system.
- Inputs, outputs, actors, modules, tools, stores, and feedback loops.
- Main steps, decision points, shared artifacts, and arrow direction.
- Any visual constraints from a reference image.
2. Create a JSON spec.
- Start from `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/visual-flow-gif/assets/default-spec.json` for the default light theme.
- Start from `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/visual-flow-gif/assets/dark-spec.json` only when the user asks for a dark version.
- Use short English labels unless the user asks for another language.
- Use explicit `x`, `y`, `w`, and `h` values for predictable layout.
- Use custom multi-point paths for routed arrows. Corners are rounded by default.
- Add important modules to `animation.pulses`; pulse highlights are strong by default.
- See `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/visual-flow-gif/references/spec-format.md` for field details.
3. Render the diagram.
Requires Python 3.10+ and Pillow 10+. If Pillow is missing, install it first:
`python3 -m pip install -r ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/visual-flow-gif/requirements.txt`
```bash
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/visual-flow-gif/script
