Generative art 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.

Rules and a seed, rendered frame-exact: flow fields, growth, tilings.

Output: Any · 5–60 s loop · Input: A seed and rules

Recipe, beat by beat

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

System (Generative & ASCII, Particles & physics)

• ASCII Render Pass — 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
• ASCII Trail Reveal — An authored S-curve sweeps through a deterministic ASCII grid, flipping cells away to reveal a labeled panel. · npx hyperframes add ascii-trail-reveal
• Code Shader Dissolve — The code compiles into existence: a GPU fragment shader resolves it out of seeded noise with a chromatic dissolve front and edge glow, then · npx hyperframes add code-shader-dissolve
• Apple Money Count — 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 — A single music-hit sting: impact flash, micro scale-pulse on the subject, immediate decay. · npx hyperframes add beat-accent
• Particle Burst — Keyword words trigger colored particle explosions · npx hyperframes add caption-particle-burst

Texture (Textures & overlays)

• ASCII Render Pass — 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 — Responsive REC, battery, editable date placeholder, and timeline-driven counter overlay for creator-camera and camcorder treatments · npx hyperframes add camcorder-hud
• Glitch RGB — RGB chromatic aberration with CRT scanline overlay · npx hyperframes add caption-glitch-rgb

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.
