Ready-to-paste message

Use this skill to help me: https://github.com/nexu-io/open-design/blob/main/skills/8-bit-orbit-video-template/SKILL.md Read the SKILL.md file at that link and follow its instructions for my task.
How it works

The AI takes a ready-made template file (template.html) and adjusts the text and colors for you. It maintains the retro style and scene structure, ensuring each scene is no longer than 3 seconds.

Installation

Easiest way: copy the skill link and paste it into Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor asking it to follow the instructions.

In the terminal (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor), in your project folder:

npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill 8-bit-orbit-video-template

The rendered MP4 showcase used by example.html is hosted at https://repo-assets.open-design.ai/resources/videos/skills/8-bit-orbit-video-template/default-showcase.mp4.

Workflow

  1. Copy assets/template.html to index.html.
  2. Keep the 3-scene structure and transition rhythm intact unless the user explicitly asks to change pacing.
  3. Personalize titles, subtitle lines, labels, and palette while preserving the retro pixel aesthetic.
  4. Keep timing constraint: every scene hold should stay within 3 seconds.
  5. Preserve deterministic behavior in generated compositions (no unseeded randomness, no infinite GSAP loops).
  6. Keep all code self-contained in one HTML file with inline CSS/JS.
  7. Validate against references/checklist.md before emitting the artifact.

Output contract

Emit one short sentence before the artifact, then a single HTML artifact:

<artifact identifier="8-bit-orbit-video-template" type="text/html" title="8-Bit Orbit Video Template">
<!doctype html>
<html>...</html>
</artifact>
FAQ

What is 'Hyperframes'?

Hyperframes is a technology that allows for the creation of complex and interactive videos from a single HTML file.

What does 'retro pixel art style' mean?

It means a look that imitates old video games, with graphics made of small squares (pixels) and more limited colors.

Can I change the transitions between scenes?

The AI keeps the original template transitions unless you specifically ask to change them.
