codeart2d

by agent-sprite-forge

Explicit-only last resort. Draws game art from code, with no image model - pixel sprites from a PixelSpec, flat vector props, UI and icons from portable SVG, rigged characters with planted feet, FX with a JS runtime, seam-proven autotiles, playable top-down layouts with collision, stylized parallax and ambient plate motion - palette-exact, with QA and review sheets. Use only when the user explicitly asks for code-drawn art, or when generate2dmedia route_media.py finds no image or video route (no-route, exit 3). Never the default - image generation (generate2dsprite, generate2dmap, video2dsprite) comes first for characters, props, maps and FX. Not for painterly, detailed or likeness art, HD-2D plates or realistic fire, smoke or water. Always disclose the result as code-drawn.

generate2dmapPlan and build 2D game maps and scenes - top-down and side-scrolling levels, tilemaps, prop packs, parallax backgrounds and HD-2D battle or story plates - with collision, navigation and reachability checks, environment motion, a playable HTML preview and export to Tiled, Godot 4 or LDtk. Map art (terrain, tiles, props, plates, parallax layers) is image generation by default, through generate2dmedia route_media.py (the API when a key is configured, else the local Codex or Grok CLI); map data (layout, collision, exits, spawns) is written as data. Use for any map, level, room, scene, background, terrain or prop-kit request. Not for characters, creatures, items or FX (generate2dsprite), character animation (video2dsprite), code-drawn tiles or maps (codeart2d, only on request) or calling an image or video API by itself (generate2dmedia).1 installsgenerate2dspriteMake game-ready 2D characters, creatures, props, icons and FX as master stills, sprite sheets or animation clips. Plan size, motion and finish; generate the art (image generation is the default, through generate2dmedia route_media.py - the API when a key is configured, else the local Codex or Grok CLI); approve one master still per character; then key, slice, register, scale, palette, QA and export frames for a game engine (Aseprite JSON, Godot SpriteFrames or Sprite3D). HD finish by default, pixel finish on request. Character animation is one image-to-video clip per action from the master (video2dsprite); sheets are for FX, icons and props. Use for sprites, masters, sheets, frame-by-frame animation and packaging frames from any source. Not for maps, tiles or backgrounds (generate2dmap), video clips (video2dsprite), code-drawn art (codeart2d, only on request) or calling an image or video API by itself (generate2dmedia).1 installsgenerate2dmediaThe art-route layer of the Forge skills. route_media.py is the one command that generates an image or an image-to-video clip - through the paid API of any provider whose key is configured (OpenAI, Google Gemini, xAI, BytePlus ModelArk, fal.ai; the configured key is the owner's consent), else through the user's own signed-in Codex or Grok CLI - and prints one JSON line with the route, artifact, sha256 and cost estimate; with no route it answers no-route (codeart2d is then the last resort). Also the capability check (forge_doctor), API key configuration, the spend ledger, resume and Codex image adoption. Use when a Forge skill sends a generation here, for the capability check, or when the user asks about keys, routes or spend. Not for planning, processing or QA of sprites, video frames or maps (generate2dsprite, video2dsprite, generate2dmap) or for code-drawn art (codeart2d).0 installsvideo2dspriteTurn one approved master still into a character's whole animated sprite set - one image-to-video clip per action (idle, walk, run, attack, jump, hurt, cast and so on), all from that still, generated through generate2dmedia route_media.py (the xAI API when a key is configured, else the local Grok CLI) - then gate each take, key it with a soft matte, register it to the master, pick loops or retime actions, finish (HD by default, pixel on request) and package fixed-canvas frames, alpha WebM, packed MP4 for iPhone and a PNG fallback with engine metadata and a JS runtime. Also processes a supplied clip. Use for character and creature animation, fluid motion and any video-to-sprite work. Not for FX, icon or prop sheets (generate2dsprite), maps or plate loops (generate2dmap), code-drawn animation (codeart2d, only on request) or calling a video API by itself (generate2dmedia).0 installs

Frequently asked questions about codeart2d

What does the codeart2d skill do?

Explicit-only last resort. Draws game art from code, with no image model - pixel sprites from a PixelSpec, flat vector props, UI and icons from portable SVG, rigged characters with planted feet, FX with a JS runtime, seam-proven autotiles, playable top-down layouts with collision, stylized parallax and ambient plate motion - palette-exact, with QA and review sheets. Use only when the user explicitly asks for code-drawn art, or when generate2dmedia route_media.py finds no image or video route (no-route, exit 3). Never the default - image generation (generate2dsprite, generate2dmap, video2dsprite) comes first for characters, props, maps and FX. Not for painterly, detailed or likeness art, HD-2D plates or realistic fire, smoke or water. Always disclose the result as code-drawn. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the codeart2d skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install agent-sprite-forge-codeart2d` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/agent-sprite-forge-codeart2d/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does codeart2d work with?

codeart2d runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the codeart2d skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use codeart2d after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/agent-sprite-forge-codeart2d` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the codeart2d skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
