Who it is forA creator or designer who wants a short animated piece in the riso style and has no animation toolchain set up.
The problemMaking an animated film from scratch usually needs asset pipelines, libraries and export tooling.
The outcomeA new film folder with an index.html that plays in a browser, with its design recorded in a FILM.md.
What you need first
- Git, to clone the repo
- npm, since the setup runs npm install and npm run setup
- Claude Code, the coding agent the README names for making new works
- A web browser, to open the index.html files and press play
Steps
git clone https://github.com/sevenevesai/riso-windowseatcd riso-windowseat/toolsnpm install && npm run setup && npm test- Open Claude Code in the repo root and ask for a film, for example "Make a 40 second riso film of a lighthouse keeper's night."
- Open the new index.html in a browser and press play to check the result.
Prompt for your agent
In the riso-windowseat repo, make a riso film of <scene description> using the riso-film skill in .claude/skills/. Expect a single index.html plus a FILM.md in films/. Verify the film plays in a browser and that its design notes are recorded in FILM.md.
Caveat. The films use no libraries, fonts, images or network calls, but any new audio you add must carry its own license, as the repo's AUDIO-SOURCES.md files show.
