Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned theorcdev/8bitcn-ui at 37031e37d6.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows AI agents to generate retro-style animations, specifically mimicking the limitations and aesthetics of older computer graphics. It focuses on creating pixelated visuals with constrained color palettes and simple movement patterns characteristic of 8-bit era games and applications. The output is intended for use in projects requiring a nostalgic or intentionally low-fidelity visual style.

When to use it

  • Creating short, looping animations for retro game assets.
  • Generating placeholder graphics during prototyping phases where high fidelity isn't required.
  • Developing UI elements with a vintage computer aesthetic.
  • Producing stylized visuals for marketing materials aiming for a nostalgic feel.
  • Illustrating technical concepts using simplified, pixel-based diagrams.

Key capabilities

  • Pixelated animation generation
  • Limited color palette selection
  • 8-bit style movement constraints
  • Retro visual aesthetic emulation

Example prompts

  • "Create an 8-bit animation of a spaceship jumping over an asteroid field."
  • "Generate a looping pixel art animation of a bouncing ball with a limited color palette."
  • "Show me a short, retro-style animation of a character walking across the screen."

Tips & gotchas

The skill’s output is intentionally low resolution and visually simplistic. Complex or highly detailed animations are beyond its capabilities; focus on simple shapes and movements to achieve the desired effect.
