ML Content (3Blue1Brown-style)

Generates real manimGL (not Manim CE) explainer-video code with 3b1b's actual layout/motion rules — but its own README tells you to pip install the wrong engine.

Wrote the same small dot-product scene twice — once from ungrounded default Manim knowledge, once strictly per the skill — then ran the skill's own crash-check grep on both: the unguided version hit 3 of its banned Manim-CE symbols (would crash outright on manimGL) while the skill-guided version passed clean; but the repo's own README setup snippet says `pip install manim`, which installs the exact banned CE package, not manimGL.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 9/10
  • Docs & honesty 2/5

What ML Content (3Blue1Brown-style) does

Produces 3Blue1Brown-style ML explainer video code and IG carousels: real manimGL syntax (banning the far-more-common Manim Community Edition, which crashes on this engine), relative-layout-only Six Laws, a measured pacing model, and a two-gate fact-checking process for every on-screen claim. Triggers on requests for 3b1b-style ML videos, paper-figure animations, IG carousels, or ML infographics/posters.

How to install ML Content (3Blue1Brown-style)

git clone https://github.com/thtskaran/claude-skills.git
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills

  • Make a 3blue1brown style video explaining how transformers work
  • Create an Instagram carousel explaining this ML paper's key idea
  • I need a paper-figure animation of gradient descent for a video
