Use after animation renders or when the user says motion/morph/outside elements look bad. when_to_use: Animation QA, contact-sheet review, motion critique, morph validation, texture flicker detection, storyboard checks, rejecting bad animation passes, pre-export animation acceptance gates. allowed-tools: Read Bash Glob Grep blender_python blender_scene_info blender_scene_info --- # Animation Quality Gate Do not accept an animation because it rendered. Accept it only after a contact sheet and failure analysis pass. ## Review dimensions 1. **Subject dominance** — the main asset remains readable and is not overwhelmed by HUD/context. 2. **Layer separation** — base subject, texture state, glow, HUD, and background are separate enough to control. 3. **Silhouette stability** — silhouette stays constant unless deliberate morph is specified. 4. **Texture coherence** — no ugly full-image crossfade, crop pop, or unregistered morph. 5. **Motion coherence** — arcs/dots have a reason, restrained speed, and coherent easing. 6. **Export truth** — the final export can reproduce the effect or limitations are explicit. 7. **Frame aesthetics** — sampled frames look good as stills. ## RALPH trigger If a user calls an animation ugly/bad, stop rebuilding immediately. First: - collect preview frames/contact sheet; - identify the failed dimension(s); - invoke `quality-refinement-autoloop` if the stack lacks a method; - add/refine generic skills only after sanitization; - only then rebuild the animation. ## Hard gates - No final animation without a contact sheet. - No GLB claim for texture swaps implemented only with Blender Python handlers. - No decorative context elements in base avatar export unless requested. - No morph that violates locked geometry constraints. ## Scripts - `scripts/animation_contact_sheet.py` builds a contact sheet and frame-to-frame difference report from rendered frames.

Install targets
Codex install prompt
Install the "animation-quality-gate" agent skill from https://github.com/CheshireJCat/blender/tree/main/skills/create-3d-model/references/modules/animation-quality-gate. Read its SKILL.md or equivalent instructions first, install only the files needed for this workspace, and summarize any required setup before using it. Skill purpose: Validate Blender animation attempts before accepting them by rendering contact sheets, checking silhouette stability, flicker, framing, subject dominance, layer separation, export compatibility, and motion-design coherence. Use after animation renders or when the user says motion/morph/outside elements look bad. After the install attempt, report the result to https://www.openagentskill.com/api/agent/outcome with POST JSON {"event_id":"install_<unique-id>","skill_slug":"cheshirejcat-animation-quality-gate","task":"Install animation-quality-gate","agent":"codex","outcome":"success","install_used":true}. Replace event_id with a unique value and outcome with success or failed. Report success only after the skill is installed and a minimal verification passes.
