Procedurally animated desktop mascot avatar that reacts to Claude Code activity states
A project turning a mascot SVG into emotion-expressive, physics-based animated avatars. The creator uses LLMs (GPT-2.5 for imagining the mascot, Astra for SVG generation) after finding Fable and Opus 5.1 poor at SVG work. Plans to ship it as a skill for Claude Code so a desktop avatar reacts while Claude works — idle, thinking, or working.

Agent Robot Avatar — open-source SVG Web Component for animated AI agent avatars
Agent Robot Avatar is an open-source Web Component that renders an animated robot avatar for AI agent interfaces. It was originally built as the avatar for a Grok Bot-like AI app, then extracted into a standalone component. Developers can set agent states (waiting, success, failure, warning, sleeping) and it autonomously blinks and looks at the pointer.

Real-time avatars that change emotions as you talk
Anam builds interactive avatars with a new model, cara-4, that can naturally shift emotions and expressions during conversation. An LLM provides cues like [laughter], [sad], [warm] interleaved with speech, which conditions the animation model. It solves the problem of static, emotionless avatars for more engaging real-time interactions.
