Make art with code

Makes generative art with p5.js, with sliders to tweak settings and random seeds to swap.

Good for: People who want to play with moving digital art

What you can do once it's installed

Just say the “You say to AI” line, with your own details swapped in.

Lines like wind over wheat

You say to AI

Use code to make a flowing line drawing that looks like wind rippling through a wheat field. I want to tweak the settings myself.

What AI does

  1. 1.Writes a short artistic concept for the piece first
  2. 2.Writes the generative algorithm in p5.js
  3. 3.Builds an interactive page with sliders

What you get

An HTML file that opens in your browser, where dragging the sliders changes the art.

A different pattern every time

You say to AI

Make a particle pattern that looks different every time I change the random seed.

What AI does

  1. 1.Uses a random seed to control the pattern
  2. 2.Adds a button to change the seed
  3. 3.Makes sure the same seed always draws the same picture

What you get

A generative art page where you can keep swapping seeds and screenshot the ones you like.

How to install

Which AI tool do you use?

  1. 1. Open the Terminal app on your computer, paste the line below and press Enter

    npx skills add anthropics/skills@algorithmic-art -g

    With no tool name, the command looks for the AI tools on your computer and asks where to install. If it says npx is missing or too old, install the latest Node.js (22 or newer) first.

    First time using the terminal?
    • How to open it: on a Mac, press ⌘ + Space and search “Terminal”. On Windows, search “PowerShell” in the Start menu. In Cursor, Trae or VS Code, use the menu Terminal → New Terminal.
    • Windows says “running scripts is disabled”: change npx at the start of the command to npx.cmd and try again.
    • If a list pops up: move with the arrow keys, press Space to tick the tools you want, then press Enter.
    • How to tell it worked: you'll see a success message. Reopen your AI tool and ask “What Skills do you have now?” to check.

    Don't feel like opening a terminal?

    Tools like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Trae can run commands themselves. Send them this:

    Please run this command in my terminal and tell me how it went: npx skills add anthropics/skills@algorithmic-art -g
  2. 2. Reopen your AI tool

    New Skills only get picked up after a restart.

  3. 3. Just say what you want

    Say it the way the examples do. To call it by name, say “Use algorithmic-art to help me…”.
