Catalogue stub — full skill: MiniMax-AI/skills

Decision tree

1. Is the full skill already installed? Check whether the skill at this location still has a das: block:

   • Global: grep -q "^das:" ~/.agents/skills/shader-dev/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed"
   • Project: grep -q "^das:" .agents/skills/shader-dev/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null && echo "pointer" || echo "installed"
   • No das: block → full skill installed, invoke it and proceed
   • das: block present → go to step 2

2. Detect scope, then install:

   To detect scope:

   [ -e ~/.agents/skills/shader-dev ] && echo "global" || echo "project"
   

   Global (installed with -g):

   npx skills add MiniMax-AI/skills --skill shader-dev -g -y
   

   Project (installed without -g):

   npx skills add MiniMax-AI/skills --skill shader-dev -y
   

   Claude Code: send either command as a chat message starting with ! to run it without leaving the conversation.

What it does

Official MiniMax GLSL shader skill covering the full real-time graphics toolbox: ray marching for 3D SDFs, fluid dynamics simulation, particle systems, and procedural pattern generation. Produces working WebGL fragment/vertex shaders with correct uniforms, time-based animation, and noise functions.
