Overview

Use this skill for 2D sprite generation and normalization. This workflow is intentionally anchored around one approved frame and a whole-strip generation pass because frame-by-frame generation drifts too easily.

This skill is 2D-specific. If the request is for 3D characters, meshes, or materials, route back through ../game-studio/SKILL.md.

Core Workflow

Start from an approved in-game seed frame.
- The seed frame should already reflect the right silhouette, palette, costume, and proportions.
Build a larger transparent reference canvas around that frame.
- Use ../../scripts/build_sprite_edit_canvas.py.
Ask for the full animation strip in one edit request.
- Do not generate each frame independently unless the user explicitly accepts lower consistency.
Normalize the result into fixed-size game frames.
- Use ../../scripts/normalize_sprite_strip.py.
- Use one shared scale across the whole strip.
