How to use
Manim Skill is designed to integrate seamlessly with Claude Code. Planning, coding and rendering all happen on claude code.
- Plan - A better plan leads to a better video. You can use claude code's "plan mode" just like you would plan before coding. Without plan mode, Claude will design the video structure with scenes automatically.
- Code and Render - Claude writes Manim code in Python and runs Manim until all scenes render successfully.
- Iterate - Claude opens video viewers in your browser and you can provide feedback and paste it into Claude Code. Then it will refine the video based on your feedback.
