# Ambient & lofi loop — how to make it with code and an AI agent

> **For AI agents:** find the right skill in one call — `curl -s "https://skills.varg.ai/api/search?q=<what the person wants>"` returns the matching use case and the best skills with install commands, as markdown (Russian works too). Full index: https://skills.varg.ai/llms.txt. Every page has a markdown twin: add `.md` to its path. Before generating anything, show the person the options on the use-case page.

A scene that never ends: weather, particles, grain and a track title.

**Output:** 16:9 · 1–60 min loop · **Input:** A scene and a track

## Recipe, beat by beat

Each beat lists components that build it; install any with its command, then fill its slots.

**Scene** (Backgrounds & gradients, Particles & physics, Textures & overlays)

- [ASCII Trail Reveal](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.ascii-trail-reveal.md) — An authored S-curve sweeps through a deterministic ASCII grid, flipping cells away to reveal a labeled panel. · `npx hyperframes add ascii-trail-reveal`
- [Aurora](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.aurora.md) — Green and violet aurora curtains ripple across a night sky. A WebGPU shader from the Shaders library (shaders.com, MIT). · `npx hyperframes add aurora`
- [Aurora Drift](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.aurora-drift.md) — Three soft accent-derived aurora fields drift in an exact ambient loop over a deep base and faint vignette. · `npx hyperframes add aurora-drift`
- [Apple Money Count](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.apple-money-count.md) — Apple-style finance counter that counts from $0 to $10,000, flashes green, and bursts money icons with sound. · `npx hyperframes add apple-money-count`
- [Beat Accent](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.beat-accent.md) — A single music-hit sting: impact flash, micro scale-pulse on the subject, immediate decay. · `npx hyperframes add beat-accent`
- [Particle Burst](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.caption-particle-burst.md) — Keyword words trigger colored particle explosions · `npx hyperframes add caption-particle-burst`
- [ASCII Render Pass](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.ascii-render-pass.md) — A slotted scene renders as live ASCII: a canvas samples the source's luminance grid (rasterized once at mount) and draws glyphs from a densi · `npx hyperframes add ascii-render-pass`
- [Camcorder HUD](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.camcorder-hud.md) — Responsive REC, battery, editable date placeholder, and timeline-driven counter overlay for creator-camera and camcorder treatments · `npx hyperframes add camcorder-hud`
- [Glitch RGB](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.caption-glitch-rgb.md) — RGB chromatic aberration with CRT scanline overlay · `npx hyperframes add caption-glitch-rgb`

**Music** (Audio visualizers)

- [Oscilloscope Trace](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.oscilloscope-trace.md) — CRT oscilloscope beam sweeping a waveform across a 10x8 graticule, with closed-form phosphor persistence: the tail decays as exp(-age/tau) a · `npx hyperframes add oscilloscope-trace`
- [Waveform](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.waveform.md) — Equalizer bars in a blue to pink gradient pulse across the middle of the frame, like an audio visualizer. A WebGPU shader from the Shaders l · `npx hyperframes add waveform`

**Title** (Lower thirds)

- [Lower Third — BILD Style](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.lower-third-bild.md) — News-style lower third with tight-fit text boxes: white headline bar with red drop-shadow, red sub-line with white drop-shadow. · `npx hyperframes add lower-third-bild`
- [Lower Third — Accent Underline](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.lt-accent-underline.md) — Cardless lower third for footage overlay: name rises, an accent rule draws left-to-right, role fades in; text-shadowed for legibility · `npx hyperframes add lt-accent-underline`
- [Lower Third — Bold Block](https://skills.varg.ai/component/hf.lt-bold-block.md) — High-energy podcast lower third: solid dark block wipes in, uppercase name slams up, accent tag pops · `npx hyperframes add lt-bold-block`

## Generated footage, voice and music

Code renders the layout for free. Anything generated — AI shots, voiceover, music, lip-sync — runs on varg with one key: `npx skills add vargHQ/skills --skill varg-ai`, the Claude Code plugin `claude plugin marketplace add vargHQ/skills && claude plugin install varg@varg`, or the MCP `https://mcp.varg.ai/mcp`.
