Algorithmic Art is a skill in Anthropic's skills repository for making generative art with p5.js. Its SKILL.md works in two steps: first the agent writes a short written philosophy for a generative style, then it expresses that as code in an HTML viewer and a JavaScript file. It stresses seeded randomness, noise fields, particles and flow fields, and interactive parameters so you can explore variations of one piece. A templates folder ships with it. We would suggest it to designers and developers who want a repeatable way to produce generative pieces or sketches for a site. The limit is that it is built around one library, p5.js, and the philosophy step makes each run an artistic interpretation, so results vary. The folder holds an Apache 2.0 LICENSE.txt, the install line we list is the marketplace command for the whole repository, and the repository was last pushed on 6 November 2026, as read on 11 November. We have not run it ourselves.
