Codeart2d skill

Plan and build 2D game maps and scenes - top-down and side-scrolling levels, tilemaps, prop packs, parallax backgrounds and HD-2D battle or story plates - with collision, navigation and reachability checks, environment motion, a playable HTML preview and export to Tiled, Godot 4 or LDtk. Map art (terrain, tiles, props, plates, parallax layers) is image generation by default, through generate2dmedia route_media.py (the API when a key is configured, else the local Codex or Grok CLI); map data (layout, collision, exits, spawns) is written as data. Use for any map, level, room, scene, background, terrain or prop-kit request. Not for characters, creatures, items or FX (generate2dsprite), character animation (video2dsprite), code-drawn tiles or maps (codeart2d, only on request) or calling an image or video API by itself (generate2dmedia).

The art-route layer of the Forge skills. route_media.py is the one command that generates an image or an image-to-video clip - through the paid API of any provider whose key is configured (OpenAI, Google Gemini, xAI, BytePlus ModelArk, fal.ai; the configured key is the owner's consent), else through the user's own signed-in Codex or Grok CLI - and prints one JSON line with the route, artifact, sha256 and cost estimate; with no route it answers no-route (codeart2d is then the last resort). Also the capability check (forge_doctor), API key configuration, the spend ledger, resume and Codex image adoption. Use when a Forge skill sends a generation here, for the capability check, or when the user asks about keys, routes or spend. Not for planning, processing or QA of sprites, video frames or maps (generate2dsprite, video2dsprite, generate2dmap) or for code-drawn art (codeart2d).

Make game-ready 2D characters, creatures, props, icons and FX as master stills, sprite sheets or animation clips. Plan size, motion and finish; generate the art (image generation is the default, through generate2dmedia route_media.py - the API when a key is configured, else the local Codex or Grok CLI); approve one master still per character; then key, slice, register, scale, palette, QA and export frames for a game engine (Aseprite JSON, Godot SpriteFrames or Sprite3D). HD finish by default, pixel finish on request. Character animation is one image-to-video clip per action from the master (video2dsprite); sheets are for FX, icons and props. Use for sprites, masters, sheets, frame-by-frame animation and packaging frames from any source. Not for maps, tiles or backgrounds (generate2dmap), video clips (video2dsprite), code-drawn art (codeart2d, only on request) or calling an image or video API by itself (generate2dmedia).

Turn one approved master still into a character's whole animated sprite set - one image-to-video clip per action (idle, walk, run, attack, jump, hurt, cast and so on), all from that still, generated through generate2dmedia route_media.py (the xAI API when a key is configured, else the local Grok CLI) - then gate each take, key it with a soft matte, register it to the master, pick loops or retime actions, finish (HD by default, pixel on request) and package fixed-canvas frames, alpha WebM, packed MP4 for iPhone and a PNG fallback with engine metadata and a JS runtime. Also processes a supplied clip. Use for character and creature animation, fluid motion and any video-to-sprite work. Not for FX, icon or prop sheets (generate2dsprite), maps or plate loops (generate2dmap), code-drawn animation (codeart2d, only on request) or calling a video API by itself (generate2dmedia).
