An animated SVG must clearly show its meaning.
The animation should follow a specific four-phase process. It must use clear visual rules for colors, timing, and element order.
A developer must follow a four-phase process. This process goes from a word to a metaphor. Then it moves to action and motion logic. Next is geometric reduction. The final phase is CSS psychology. The main concept, or 'gold,' should be bright. The background or structure should be dark. A 10-year-old child should understand the static image instantly. Animations must be self-contained. All animation code belongs inside the SVG's style block. The SVG should always use `width="100%" height="100%"` and `viewBox="0 0 100 100"`. `transform-origin` must use SVG coordinates, like `50px 50px`. The order of elements in the code controls their visual stacking. Elements drawn first appear behind later elements. Animation duration shows emotion. A short duration like 0.4 seconds can show effort. A longer duration like 3.5 seconds can show a natural rhythm. Inverse animations show relationships between elements.
A developer creates an animated SVG of a person leaving. The developer makes the 'person' element bright yellow. The background 'path' element is dark grey. The animation of the person walking away takes 3.5 seconds to show a calm departure. A star dims as the person walks away, showing a relationship. All animation code is inside the SVG file. The SVG uses `width="100%" height="100%"`.

All parts of an interactive chart must connect smoothly. This means shapes should share edges or points.
The AI model acts as a technical SVG generator. It uses two colors: 'fg' for the main body and 'ac' for one important feature.
Realistic diagrams often have parts that overlap. For example, a bicycle bell sits on a handlebar.
The system uses 50 hand-crafted noun silhouettes. These are organized into five domains.
