• Zero human code: Claude wrote the story, animated every frame in pure JS, and composed the soundtrack in Python
• Risograph-aesthetic visuals — scattered request labels, a starburst motif, and a "small print" jar — all rendered without image assets
• The model reviewed its own output second-by-second and self-polished the final render

“holy shit, opus 5.5 is kind of insane at animation. i didn't write a single line of code. it wrote the story, drew every frame, and made the music. no image assets at all, it's all JS. the story is called "small print": claude gets a pile of requests every day. it circles the human part hidden inside them, like "one hand. baby's asleep", and drops it into a jar. at night, those words turn into stars and join up into a constellation. rendered with hyperframes, all in one index.html. it synthesized the music in python, then went through the render second by second and polished it again.”
