algorithm-visualizer
Generate visual representations of algorithm execution
npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill algorithm-visualizer --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Algorithm Visualizer Skill ## Purpose Generate visual representations of algorithm execution to aid understanding, debugging, and explanation of algorithmic concepts. ## Capabilities - Step-by-step execution visualization - Data structure state visualization - Graph algorithm animation - DP table visualization - Generate animated GIFs/videos - Interactive visualization generation - Tree and array state rendering ## Target Processes - algorithm-implementation - dp-pattern-matching - graph-traversal - interview-problem-explanation ## Visualization Types 1. **Array Operations**: Sorting, searching, two-pointer techniques 2. **Tree Structures**: Binary trees, BST operations, tree traversals 3. **Graph Algorithms**: BFS, DFS, shortest paths, MST 4. **DP Tables**: State transitions, optimal substructure 5. **Data Structures**: Stack, queue, heap operations ## Input Schema ```json { "type": "object", "properties": { "algorithm": { "type": "string" }, "input": { "type": "object" }, "format": { "type": "string", "enum": ["ascii", "svg", "gif", "html"] }, "steps": { "type": "boolean", "default": true } }, "required": ["algorithm", "input"] } ``` ## Output Schema ```json { "type": "object",

What does the algorithm-visualizer skill do?
Generate visual representations of algorithm execution
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add a5c-ai/babysitter --skill algorithm-visualizer --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From a5c-ai/babysitter, a repository with 1,642 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
