Pixel Art Studio

Claude IS the pixel artist — designs and places every pixel directly via Python/Pillow (scripts/pixelstudio.py). No Aseprite, no MCP server. Creates sprites, characters, items, tiles/tilesets, animations (idle/walk/run/attack), applies limited palettes, hue-shifted ramps, dithering, shading, selective outlines, and exports PNG / animated GIF / spritesheet+JSON for game engines. Can also STUDY a pixel-art file the user provides and grow its knowledge base. PREFER THIS SKILL over pixel-art-creator / pixel-art-animator / pixel-art-professional / pixel-art-exporter (those require the aseprite MCP)

# Pixel Art Studio

Self-contained studio: you author a **build script** that draws every pixel with
`scripts/pixelstudio.py` (Pillow only), render a preview, **look at it with your own
eyes**, critique, fix, repeat. That see→critique→fix loop is the entire quality engine —
never skip it. You are the artist; the library is just your hand.

Requirement: `python3 -c "import PIL"` — if missing, `pip3 install --user pillow`.

## The Loop

1. **Brief** — decide canvas size, palette (with a hard color budget), style, outline
   rule, light direction. Consult `references/patterns.md` + `references/palettes.md`,
   and check `references/learned/INDEX.md` for a studied style that matches.
2. **Build script** — create `pixel-art/<slug>/build.py` in the working directory.
   The script is the artwork's source of truth: it regenerates everything on each run.
   Parametrize shapes (positions, squash, frame offsets) instead of hardcoding every pixel
   twice — animation frames become function calls.

Fable Mode

cozytab/fable5-mode

A work-discipline protocol that makes Opus 4.8 (or any non-frontier model) operate at Fable-5-grade quality. Core idea — output quality = model capability x work discipline: spend extra orchestration to buy single-pass quality via six levers (plan gate, small-card execution, adversarial self-check, real-product verification, context hygiene, checkpoint autonomy). Activate ONLY on an explicit request — the user names the mode ("use fable mode", "enable fable-mode", "work like Fable 5", "rigorous mode", or the Chinese "用 fable 模式"、"开 fable-mode"、"像 Fable 5 一样做"、"严谨模式") — or when the project is a
