drawing-with-pycairo
80 / 100 · Low risk
Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.
Draws images, PDF/SVG vector files and animation frames with pycairo, and supplies what cairo lacks: shaped text for Arabic, Indic and other scripts, text along curves, blur/glow/drop shadows, path booleans, stroke-to-outline, and Gouraud-shaded 3D. Use when writing pycairo or cairo drawing code, generative art, custom diagrams or posters rendered in Python, or when cairo output needs non-Latin text, soft effects, merged shapes or shaded surfaces.

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'drawing-with-pycairo' ~/.claude/skills/'drawing-with-pycairo' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
