Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

ae-agent-skills

v0.3.0

Published

One-command installer for the ae-agent-skill After Effects extension and CLI.

Readme

ae-agent-skills

ae-agent-skills enables coding agents (Codex / Gemini / Claude Code) to operate Adobe After Effects. It installs ae-agent-skill (After Effects CEP panel), ae-cli, and agent skills so you can ask your agent to create compositions or edit existing scenes.

Japanese README: README.ja.md

Quick Start

  1. Install:
npx ae-agent-skills install
  1. Restart After Effects, then open Window > Extensions (Beta) > ae-agent-skill.
  2. Launch Codex, Gemini, or Claude Code and ask it to perform an After Effects task.

First request example (create a composition):

Use $aftereffects-declarative to create a 1920x1080, 30fps, 5-second composition.
Set a dark gray background, place "Hello AE Agent" text at the center,
and add a 0.5-second fade-in animation.

In Claude Code, invoke the skill as a slash command:

Use /aftereffects-declarative to create a 1920x1080, 30fps, 5-second composition.
Set a dark gray background, place "Hello AE Agent" text at the center,
and add a 0.5-second fade-in animation.
  1. After the agent finishes, confirm the composition is created in After Effects.

To choose an agent explicitly:

npx ae-agent-skills install --agent codex
npx ae-agent-skills install --agent gemini
npx ae-agent-skills install --agent claude
npx ae-agent-skills install --agent all

What the installer does

  1. Prompts for target agent (codex / gemini / claude / both / all) when --agent is omitted.
  2. Installs the signed ZXP extension via UPIA or ExManCmd.
  3. Installs ae-cli and agent skills.
  4. Initializes ~/ae-agent-skills/ with work/, done/, scene.schema.json, and references/.

both means Codex + Gemini for backward compatibility. all means Codex + Gemini + Claude Code. Claude Code user skills are installed under ~/.claude/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md. Claude Code slash commands are installed under ~/.claude/commands/<command>.md.

Which skill to use

  • $aftereffects-declarative: default for new composition building and overall scene structure
  • $aftereffects-cli: best for surgical edits, property-level tweaks, and debugging
