Indie creator yihuiindie says they spent $3,000 using Claude Opus 5.5 to remake the internet's hardest and most viral video effects as code-generated animations — 301 videos in total, with results they describe as stunning.

All test videos, the complete prompt set, and the workflow have been open-sourced (GitHub repo plus 4K originals linked in the comments), so anyone can copy a prompt and reproduce the effects with their own agent.
