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

Frequently asked questions
- Is the ML Content (3Blue1Brown-style) skill free?
- Yes. The skill itself is free from thtskaran/claude-skills. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
- Does ML Content (3Blue1Brown-style) work with Claude Code?
- We tested it with Claude Code 2.x (agent harness) on Jul 15, 2026. Verdict: Works with setup.

- What is the ML Content (3Blue1Brown-style) SkillProof Score?
- 8.4/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 9/10, docs & honesty 2/5.
- How do I install ML Content (3Blue1Brown-style)?
- Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
- Can I use ML Content (3Blue1Brown-style) with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
- The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
