machine
Turn one line ("a turbofan jet engine", "a mechanical watch", "an LVAD heart pump") into a photoreal, physics based, interactive 3D simulation of that machine in a single HTML file, plus a 20 to 30 second film to post it. Real proportions in metres, real materials (PBR metals, paints, polymers, glass), studio lighting with soft shadows, moving parts driven by a small solver that computes real numbers (thrust, torque, rpm, flow, pressure, efficiency), and modes to explode it, cut it open with clean section caps, x-ray it, slow it down, label it and break it. Use this whenever someone asks to build, simulate, visualise, explain or "show how X works" for any machine, engine, mechanism, device, instrument or piece of hardware, wants an interactive 3D model or a cutaway, or wants a video of a machine for a post, even if they never say "simulation" or "three.js".
Choose how to use this skill
You do not need every option. Choose the path your AI client supports. The stable page stays the same; versioned files are immutable.
1. Native installer
This listing has no registered native installer command. Use the complete package or source fallback below, depending on what your client supports.
Do not guess an installer command or replace an existing version without reviewing the diff.
2. Complete package recommended
Download the ZIP when available. It includes SKILL.md plus the references, security notes and version metadata.
No complete ProSkills package is published for this listing yet.3. Prompt-only
Copy the prompt above when the agent can read the stable page or when you want to adopt the workflow without installing a skill.
Need only the instruction file?
Download SKILL.md only if your client requires a single file. The complete ZIP is safer for a full installation because it preserves the references and release context.
No path installs or executes anything by itself. Your agent still needs access to the project files. Before updating, compare the installed version and review the diff.

/machine a turbofan jet engine, the kind that pushes a widebody off the runway
Claude researches the real machine, writes down its real dimensions and the physics that make it work, and builds it: a 2.9 m fan of twisted titanium airfoils, a 10 stage compressor, an annular combustor with 22 fuel nozzles, two turbines glowing at the temperatures a Brayton cycle solver computes, on a ground run stand. You drag the throttle and about 340 kN comes out of the cycle, not out of a table. You cut it open and the section faces are solid metal. You throw a fan blade and the solver tells you the imbalance load the case has to hold.
Then one command turns it into a film for your feed.
Quick start
npx skills add AirsupHQ/machine-skill -g -a claude-code
Then in Claude Code:
/machine a mechanical watch movement, the escapement ticking
You get watch.html: open it, drag, cut, explode, break. To film it:
node ~/.claude/skills/machine/scripts/record.mjs watch.html out/watch.mp4 --music freepd:Classical/Easy_Lemon

What you get
| The real machine | Real proportions in metres, 15 to 40 named parts and thousands of solid pieces (blades, teeth, bolts), lathe turned solids, cambered and twisted airfoils, involute gears, routed pipes. A scale bar shows real size. |
| Real materials | Physically based steel, titanium, Inconel, copper, brass, aluminium, paints, polymers, glass and sapphire, with measured reflectances, micro finishes (turned, brushed, cast), clearcoats and heat glow from the solver's temperatures. |
| A studio | A softbox environment with black flags, a soft key shadow, contact shadow, ambient occlusion, bloom, a paper seamless or a night set. It looks like a product photograph before it moves. |
| Real physics | A small solver per machine (Brayton cycle, rocket chamber and nozzle, slider crank and BMEP, torsional oscillator, Cp(lambda, beta), pump curves, Kienzle, Darcy) drives every motion and every number. "How it is computed" shows the equations. |
| Modes | Explode, cutaway with solid section faces, x-ray, slow motion, live labels, pause, and a computed "break it". |
| A film | ?film=1 gives a deterministic clock. One command records a 28 s film in numbered beats: you type one line, Claude builds it part by part, it runs, it opens, it comes apart, it breaks. Music bed included, magenta frame guard and pink scan built in. |
