Manim Skill
Create videos like you write code, with your coding agent
Works with Claude Code and Codex. Your coding agent autonomously generates 3Blue1Brown-style videos following a structured workflow: Narration → TTS → Code → Render → Mux → View. Voiceover narration and time-synced subtitles are on by default.
Installation
git clone https://github.com/Yusuke710/manim-skill
cd manim-skill
# System libraries (macOS)
brew install cairo pkg-config ffmpeg
brew install --cask mactex-no-gui # LaTeX — required for Tex/MathTex text rendering
# Python packages — Manim + local Kokoro voiceover(no API key needed), from pyproject.toml
uv sync
# Register the skill (symlink it into each agent's skills dir)
ln -s "$PWD/skills/manim-skill" ~/.claude/skills/manim-skill # Claude Code
ln -s "$PWD/skills/manim-skill" ~/.codex/skills/manim-skill # Codex
# Alternatively, ask your coding agent to add this skill
How it works
Describe the video to your coding agent. It chooses the scene structure directly in the animation code, without creating a separate plan document.
-
Generate - The agent writes spoken lines to
narration.txt, generates local Kokoro TTS, writes Manim code using measured narration timing, checks subtitles, renders, and muxes untilvideo.mp4exists. Silent videos skip narration and go straight to code and rendering. -
Iterate - Claude opens a video viewer in your browser. Add feedback, copy it into Claude Code, and Claude refines the video based on your notes. The same workflow works with Codex.
Watch the video and pause at a moment you want to discuss. Click Capture or press t to add the current timestamp and scene name to Notes. Describe what to fix in that frame, request a change, or ask a question—for example, "These labels overlap; move them apart" or "Why does this token attend most strongly to cup?" Repeat for any other moments.
Click Copy, paste the notes into Claude Code (or Codex), and send them. The agent can inspect the referenced frames, answer your questions, and update the affected scenes. Reload the viewer to watch the revised video and repeat as needed.
Local voiceover with Kokoro TTS
Narration uses Kokoro TTS, an open-weight
text-to-speech model that runs locally without an API key. uv sync installs
the Python dependencies.
Where files go
Every video is a flat session folder under one consistent home — never in your working directory:
~/.manim-skill/<project-slug>/ # narration.txt, script.py, video.mp4, media/, ...
Override the home with MANIM_SKILL_HOME. This means you can point the skill at
your own codebase ("visualize this algorithm") without it leaving artifacts
behind — it reads your files in place and writes only into the session folder.

- A skill for Claude Code that lets the coding agent create Manim Community Edition animations, with optional text-to-speech voiceover and synced subtitles. It follows a structured workflow from narration through rendering and muxing.
- How do I install manim-skill?
- Run these in Claude Code: /plugin marketplace add Yusuke710/manim-skill then /plugin install manim-skill@manim-skill. Then prompt normally.
- Does manim-skill auto-invoke its skills?
- Not yet. It is indexed on Flowy as a plain plugin.
- Is manim-skill free?
- Yes. Flowy is free and open source, with nothing gated. You can read every skill in full before you install.
- Which coding agents can use manim-skill's skills?
- manim-skill installs in Claude Code, and its skills also install in Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode and Windsurf with the skills CLI. Each skill's page has the install command. Flowy's auto-invocation, which fires a skill when your prompt matches, runs in Claude Code only.
