This connects Claude to SpriteCook's API for generating and animating game assets directly from your editor. You get tools for pixel art and HD sprite generation, plus animation workflows that let you import local images, apply motion prompts, and maintain style consistency across assets using reference IDs. The included agent skills teach Claude the recommended workflows: checking credits before batch runs, using smart crop modes, and writing effective animation prompts. Install with npx spritecook-mcp setup to wire up both the MCP server and skills in one go. Useful when you're prototyping game art and want to iterate on sprites without leaving your coding environment.
Agent skills for SpriteCook - AI-powered game asset generation. These skills teach AI coding agents how to generate pixel art and detailed/HD game art, plus animate existing assets with SpriteCook's MCP tools.

You need the SpriteCook MCP server connected to your editor. The skill tells your AI agent how to use SpriteCook, but the MCP connection provides the actual tools.
Set up MCP + skill in one step:
npx spritecook-mcp setup
Or see spritecook.ai for manual setup instructions.
Works with any editor that supports the Agent Skills standard:
