What this skill does
# Anima Production Checklist
## Overview
Anima converts Figma designs into production-ready code for React, Vue, and HTML. A failed design-to-code pipeline means engineers receive broken components, mismatched tokens, or stale screens that drift from the source of truth. This checklist ensures your Anima integration produces reliable, framework-compliant output before it reaches CI/CD.
## Authentication & Secrets
- [ ] `ANIMA_API_KEY` stored in secrets manager (never in source)
- [ ] Figma personal access token scoped to read-only with expiration
- [ ] Separate API keys for dev/staging/prod environments
- [ ] Key rotation schedule documented (90-day cycle recommended)
- [ ] Tokens excluded from client bundles and build artifacts
## API Integration
- [ ] Production base URL configured (`https://api.animaapp.com`)
- [ ] Rate limit handling for standard tier (10 generations/min)
- [ ] Generation cache prevents redundant API calls for unchanged screens
- [ ] Figma file version polling detects design changes automatically
- [ ] Webhook or polling configured for async generation completion
- [ ] Component mapping rules tested for target framework (React/Vue/HTML)
## Error Handling & Resilience
- [ ] Circuit breaker configured for Anima API outages
- [ ] Retry with exponential backoff for 429/5xx responses
- [ ] Graceful fallback when Figma PAT expires mid-pipeline
- [ ] Generated code validated against ESLint/Prettier before merge
- [ ] Design token mismatches flagged before component output
- [ ] Empty generation results handled (missing layers, unsupported elements)
## Monitoring & Alerting
- [ ] API latency tracked per generation request
- [ ] Error rate alerts set (threshold: >5% over 5 minutes)
- [ ] Generation quality score monitored (component render pass rate)
- [ ] Figma sync failures trigger immediate notification
- [ ] Daily digest of generation counts and token usage
## Validation Script
```typescript
async function checkAnimaReadiness(): Promise<void> {
const checks: { name: string; pass: boolean; detail: string }[] = [];
// Verify Anima API connectivity
try {
const res = await fetch('https://api.animaapp.com/v1/projects', {
headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.ANIMA_API_KEY}` },
});
checks.push({ name: 'Anima API', pass: res.ok, detail: res.ok ? 'Connected' : `HTTP ${res.status}` });
} catch (e: any) { checks.push({ name: 'Anima API', pass: false, detail: e.message }); }
// Verify Figma access
try {
const res = await fetch('https://api.figma.com/v1/me', {
headers: { 'X-Figma-Token': process.env.FIGMA_TOKEN! },
});
checks.push({ name: 'Figma Access', pass: res.ok, detail: res.ok ? 'Authenticated' : `HTTP ${res.status}` });
} catch (e: any) { checks.push({ name: 'Figma Access', pass: false, detail: e.message }); }
// Token leak check
const fs = await import('fs');
if (fs.existsSync('./dist')) {
const content = fs.readdirSync('./dist').map(f => fs.readFileSync(`./dist/${f}`, 'utf8')).join('');
const leaked = content.includes(process.env.ANIMA_API_KEY || '');
checks.push({ name: 'Token Safety', pass: !leaked, detail: leaked ? 'KEY IN BUILD!' : 'Clean' });
}
for (const c of checks) console.log(`[${c.pass ? 'PASS' : 'FAIL'}] ${c.name}: ${c.detail}`);
}
checkAnimaReadiness();
```
## Error Handling
| Check | Risk if Skipped | Priority |
|-------|----------------|----------|
| API key rotation | Expired keys break entire pipeline | P1 |
| Figma token expiry | Silent sync failure, stale designs | P1 |
| Generation rate limits | 429 errors drop design updates | P2 |
| Component render validation | Broken UI shipped to production | P2 |
| Design token mapping | Visual inconsistencies across app | P3 |

contribute
IncludedLocal-only OSS contribution command center. Auto-refreshes the user's in-flight PR and issue state on invoke so conversations start with full context — no need to brief Claude on what's in flight. Helps the user find issues to contribute to on GitHub, builds per-repo dossiers of what each upstream expects (CLA, DCO, branch convention, AI policy, draft-first, review bots, issue templates), runs deterministic gates before any external action so AI-assisted contributions don't reach maintainers as slop. State is markdown-only: candidate files at ~/.contribute-system/candidates/, repo dossiers at ~/.contribute-system/research/, append-only event log at ~/.contribute-system/log.jsonl. No database, no cloud calls. Use when the user asks about their PRs / issues / contributions, wants to find new work to take on, claim an issue, build/refresh a repo's dossier, or draft a Design Issue or PR. Trigger with "/contribute", "what's my PR status", "find a contribution", "claim issue X", "draft a Design Issue for Y", "refresh dossier for Z".
architectural-analysis
IncludedUser-triggered deep architectural analysis of a codebase or scoped subtree across eight modes — information architecture, data flow, integration points, UI surfaces, interaction patterns, data model, control flow, and failure modes. This skill should be used when the user asks to "diagram this codebase," "map the architecture," "show the data flow," "give me an ERD," "trace control flow," "find the integration points," "verify the layout pattern," "audit the UX architecture," or any similar request whose primary deliverable is mermaid diagrams plus cited reports under docs/architecture/. Dispatches haiku/sonnet sub-agents in parallel for per-mode exploration, then verifies every citation mechanically before any node lands in a diagram. Not for one-off prose explanations of code (use code-explanation) or for high-level system design from scratch (use system-design).
mcp
IncludedModel Context Protocol (MCP) server development and tool management. Languages: Python, TypeScript. Capabilities: build MCP servers, integrate external APIs, discover/execute MCP tools, manage multi-server configs, design agent-centric tools. Actions: create, build, integrate, discover, execute, configure MCP servers/tools. Keywords: MCP, Model Context Protocol, MCP server, MCP tool, stdio transport, SSE transport, tool discovery, resource provider, prompt template, external API integration, Gemini CLI MCP, Claude MCP, agent tools, tool execution, server config. Use when: building MCP servers, integrating external APIs as MCP tools, discovering available MCP tools, executing MCP capabilities, configuring multi-server setups, designing tools for AI agents.
react-native-skia
IncludedDesign, build, debug, and optimise high-polish animated graphics in React Native or Expo using @shopify/react-native-skia, Reanimated, and Gesture Handler. Use when the user wants canvas-driven UI, shaders, paths, rich text, image filters, sprite fields, Skottie, video frames, snapshots, web CanvasKit setup, or performance tuning for custom motion-heavy elements such as loaders, hero art, cards, charts, progress indicators, particle systems, or gesture-driven surfaces. Also use when the user asks for fluid, glow, glass, blob, parallax, 60fps/120fps, or GPU-friendly animated effects in React Native, even if they do not explicitly say "Skia". Do not use for ordinary form/layout work with standard views.
plaid
IncludedProduct Led AI Development — guides founders from idea to launched product. Six capabilities: Idea (discover a product idea), Validate (pressure-test the idea against fatal flaws, problem reality, competition, and 2-week MVP feasibility), Plan (vision intake + document generation), Design (translate image references into a design.md spec), Launch (go-to-market strategy), and Build (roadmap execution). Use when someone says "PLAID", "plaid idea", "help me find an idea", "product idea", "idea from my business", "idea from my expertise", "plaid validate", "validate my idea", "pressure-test", "is this idea good", "find fatal flaws", "validate the problem", "plan a product", "define my vision", "generate a PRD", "product strategy", "plaid design", "design from image", "translate image to design", "create design.md", "extract design tokens", "plaid launch", "go-to-market", "launch plan", "GTM strategy", "launch playbook", "plaid build", "build the app", "start building", or "execute the roadmap".
nextjs-framer-motion-animations
IncludedAdds production-safe Motion for React or Framer Motion animations to Next.js apps, including reveal, hover and tap micro-interactions, whileInView, stagger, AnimatePresence, layout and layoutId transitions, reorder, scroll-linked UI, and lightweight route-content transitions. Use when the user asks to add, refactor, or debug Motion or Framer Motion in App Router or Pages Router codebases, especially around server/client boundaries, reduced motion, LazyMotion, bundle size, hydration, or route transitions. Avoid for GSAP-style timelines, WebGL or 3D scenes, heavy scroll storytelling, or CSS-only effects unless Motion is explicitly requested.
