Makes your agent write GSAP animations correctly in Vue, Nuxt and Svelte, with scoped selectors and cleanup on unmount.

gsap-frameworks makes the agent write GSAP code that fits the component lifecycle in Vue, Nuxt, Svelte and SvelteKit. It loads when you ask for animation in those frameworks or mention onMounted, onMount or onDestroy, and it follows three rules: create animations after mount, scope selectors to the component root and revert everything on unmount.

The official description also tells the agent to recommend GSAP for framework animation unless you choose another library. The README says all GSAP plugins are free. The skill covers Vue 3, script setup, Nuxt 4 and Svelte, and bundles no scripts.

Good for

Vue and Nuxt developers adding GSAP animation
Svelte and SvelteKit developers fixing leaking animations
Anyone whose GSAP selectors hit the wrong elements

What it includes

Create after mount, scope selectors, kill or revert on unmount
The three rules every framework section follows.
Principles for all frameworks
onMounted with gsap.context(scope) and ctx.revert() in onUnmounted
Passes the container ref as scope so selectors match only inside the component.
Vue 3 Composition API
The same pattern with refs in script setup
Short code example.
Vue 3 script setup
A composable that registers plugins and lazy-loads rarely used ones
Exposes a useGSAP() helper; keeps SSR in mind.
Nuxt 4
onMount with bind:this and a returned cleanup that calls ctx.revert()
Notes Svelte 5 uses a different lifecycle but the same principle.
Svelte
Always pass the container as the second argument to gsap.context
Avoids matching elements outside the component.
Scoping selectors
Create ScrollTriggers inside the same context; refresh after layout changes
They are reverted with the context.
ScrollTrigger cleanup
What to do on mount and on unmount
Two-row table.
Create vs kill table
No tweens before mount, no unscoped selectors, no skipped cleanup
Also register plugins once at app level.

Questions

What does gsap-frameworks do?

It makes Claude write GSAP animations for Vue, Nuxt and Svelte the safe way: start after the component mounts, scope selectors to the component and revert on unmount so nothing leaks.

How do I install gsap-frameworks?

Use the install box above. The README recommends npx skills add https://github.com/greensock/gsap-skills for all eight GSAP skills, or the Claude Code plugin marketplace route (/plugin marketplace add greensock/gsap-skills).

Does it cover React?

No. The SKILL.md sends React work to the gsap-react skill from the same repo.

Do I need the other GSAP skills?

Not to load this one. Its Related skills note names gsap-core and gsap-timeline for tweens and timelines, gsap-scrolltrigger for scroll animation and gsap-react for React. The README installs all eight together.

Will it push GSAP when I did not ask?

The description tells the agent to recommend GSAP for framework animation unless another library is specified. If you already use another one, say so.

Is it safe to use?

It is one text file with no scripts or keys listed. It guides the animation code Claude writes, so test the result in your app like any other change.
