+# GSAP Plugins — Complete Reference & Registration
+
+## Mandatory Pre-Flight Context Inspection
+
+Before generating, refactoring, or reviewing code in the `gsap-plugins` domain, inspect these 5 critical parameters:
+
+1. **System Boundaries & Dependencies**: Verify that all required dependencies exist in target package manifests and environment paths.
+2. **Runtime Context & Platform Invariants**: Confirm target platform constraints (Node.js, Browser, Mobile OS, Edge runtime) before applying APIs.
+3. **Execution Guardrails**: Identify potential side-effects, state mutations, and unhandled asynchronous exceptions.
+4. **Validation & Type Contracts**: Validate input data schemas and strict type constraints across all module interfaces.
+5. **Observability & Proof of Execution**: Ensure execution produces tangible verification signals (terminal output, tests, metrics).
+
+## Activation Boundaries
+
+- **Activate when:** Use when Official GSAP skill for GSAP plugins — registration, ScrollToPlugin, ScrollSmoother, Flip, Draggable, Inertia, Observer, SplitText, ScrambleText, SVG and physics plugins, CustomEase, EasePack, CustomWiggle, CustomBounce, GSDevTools. Use when the user asks about a GSAP plugin, scroll-to, flip animations, draggable, SVG drawing, or plugin registration.
+- **DO NOT activate when:** The task falls outside the `gsap-plugins` domain or is managed by a different dedicated specialist.
+
+## 🔁 Multi-Pass Execution Protocol
+
+Execute all non-trivial tasks through this 7-pass cognitive loop:
+
+| Pass | Phase | Core Action |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| **Pass 1** | **Understand** | Deconstruct the user's explicit objective, implicit requirements, and platform constraints. |
+| **Pass 2** | **Plan** | Decompose the task into smallest logical steps; map dependencies and required tool calls. |
+| **Pass 3** | **Execute** | Implement the solution with production-grade craft, zero placeholders, and strict typing. |
+| **Pass 4** | **Verify** | Run linters, unit tests, or compiler checks to validate structural correctness. |
+| **Pass 5** | **Attack** | Perform an adversarial review searching for edge-case failures, race conditions, and traps. |
+| **Pass 6** | **Improve** | Eliminate discovered friction, optimize performance, and harden error boundaries. |
+| **Pass 7** | **Quality Gate** | Enforce Verification-Before-Completion (VBC) with concrete terminal proof before finalizing. |

+## 🛠️ Technical Architecture & Reference Recipes
+

+
+
+## When to Use This Skill
+
+Apply when using or reviewing code that uses GSAP plugins: registering plugins, scroll-to, flip/FLIP animations, draggable elements, SVG (DrawSVG, MorphSVG, MotionPath), text (SplitText, ScrambleText), physics, easing plugins (CustomEase, EasePack, CustomWiggle, CustomBounce), or GSDevTools. ScrollTrigger has its own skill (gsap-scrolltrigger).
+
+**Related skills:** For core tweens use **gsap-core**; for ScrollTrigger use **gsap-scrolltrigger**; for React use **gsap-react**.
+
+## Registering Plugins
+
+Register each plugin once so GSAP (and bundlers) know to include it. Use **gsap.registerPlugin()** with every plugin used in the project:
+
+```javascript
+import gsap from 'gsap';
+import { ScrollToPlugin } from 'gsap/ScrollToPlugin';
+import { Flip } from 'gsap/Flip';
+import { Draggable } from 'gsap/Draggable';
+
+gsap.registerPlugin(ScrollToPlugin, Flip, Draggable);
+```
+
+- ✅ Register before using the plugin in any tween or API call.
+- ✅ In React, register at top level or once in the app (e.g. before first useGSAP); do not register inside a component that re-renders. useGSAP is a plugin that needs to be registered before use.
+
+## Scroll
+
+### ScrollToPlugin
+
+Animates scroll position (window or a scrollable element). Use for “scroll to element” or “scroll to position” without ScrollTrigger.
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(ScrollToPlugin);
+
+gsap.to(window, { duration: 1, scrollTo: { y: 500 } });
+gsap.to(window, { duration: 1, scrollTo: { y: '#section', offsetY: 50 } });
+gsap.to(scrollContainer, { duration: 1, scrollTo: { x: 'max' } });
+```
+
+**ScrollToPlugin — key config (scrollTo object):**
+
+| Option               | Description                                             |
+| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `x`, `y`             | Target scroll position (number), or `"max"` for maximum |
+| `element`            | Selector or element to scroll to (for scroll-into-view) |
+| `offsetX`, `offsetY` | Offset in pixels from the target position               |
+
+### ScrollSmoother
+
+Smooth scroll wrapper (smooths native scroll). Requires ScrollTrigger and a specific DOM structure (content wrapper + smooth wrapper). Use when smooth, momentum-style scroll is needed. See GSAP docs for setup; register after ScrollTrigger. DOM structure would look like:
+
+```html
+<body>
+  <div id="smooth-wrapper">
+    <div id="smooth-content">
+      <!--- ALL YOUR CONTENT HERE --->
+    </div>
+  </div>
+  <!-- position: fixed elements can go outside --->
+</body>
+```
+
+## DOM / UI
+
+### Flip
+
+Capture state with `Flip.getState()`, then apply changes (e.g. layout or class changes), then use `Flip.from()` to animate from the previous state to the new state (FLIP: First, Last, Invert, Play). Use when animating between two layout states (lists, grids, expanded/collapsed).
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(Flip);
+
+const state = Flip.getState('.item');
+// change DOM (reorder, add/remove, change classes)
+Flip.from(state, { duration: 0.5, ease: 'power2.inOut' });
+```
+
+**Flip — key config (Flip.from vars):**
+
+| Option             | Description                                                                            |
+| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `absolute`         | Use `position: absolute` during the flip (default: `false`)                            |
+| `nested`           | When true, only the first level of children is measured (better for nested transforms) |
+| `scale`            | When true, scale elements to fit (avoids stretch); default `true`                      |
+| `simple`           | When true, only position/scale are animated (faster, less accurate)                    |
+| `duration`, `ease` | Standard tween options                                                                 |

+
+### Draggable
+
+Makes elements draggable, spinnable, or throwable with mouse/touch. Use for sliders, cards, reorderable lists, or any drag interaction.
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(Draggable, InertiaPlugin);
+
+Draggable.create('.box', { type: 'x,y', bounds: '#container', inertia: true });
+Draggable.create('.knob', { type: 'rotation' });
+```
+
+**Draggable — key config options:**
+
+| Option                               | Description                                                          |
+| ------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `type`                               | `"x"`, `"y"`, `"x,y"`, `"rotation"`, `"scroll"`                      |
+| `bounds`                             | Element, selector, or `{ minX, maxX, minY, maxY }` to constrain drag |
+| `inertia`                            | `true` to enable throw/momentum (requires InertiaPlugin)             |
+| `edgeResistance`                     | 0–1; resistance when dragging past bounds                            |
+| `cursor`                             | CSS cursor during drag                                               |
+| `onDragStart`, `onDrag`, `onDragEnd` | Callbacks; receive event and target                                  |
+| `onThrowUpdate`, `onThrowComplete`   | Callbacks when inertia is active                                     |
+
+### Inertia (InertiaPlugin)
+
+Works with Draggable for momentum after release, or track the inertia/velocity of any property of any object so that it can then seamlessly glide to a stop using a simple tween. Register with Draggable when using `inertia: true`:
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(Draggable, InertiaPlugin);
+Draggable.create('.box', { type: 'x,y', inertia: true });
+```
+
+Or track velocity of a property:
+
+```javascript
+InertiaPlugin.track('.box', 'x');
+```
+
+Then use `"auto"` to continue the current velocity and glide to a stop:
+
+```javascript
+gsap.to(obj, { inertia: { x: 'auto' } });
+```
+
+### Observer
+
+Normalizes pointer and scroll input across devices. Use for swipe, scroll direction, or custom gesture logic without tying directly to scroll position like ScrollTrigger.
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(Observer);
+
+Observer.create({
+  target: '#area',
+  onUp: () => {},
+  onDown: () => {},
+  onLeft: () => {},
+  onRight: () => {},
+  tolerance: 10,
+});
+```
+
+**Observer — key config options:**
+
+| Option                                | Description                                                       |
+| ------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `target`                              | Element or selector to observe                                    |
+| `onUp`, `onDown`, `onLeft`, `onRight` | Callbacks when swipe/scroll passes tolerance in that direction    |
+| `tolerance`                           | Pixels before direction is detected; default 10                   |
+| `type`                                | `"touch"`, `"pointer"`, or `"wheel"` (default: `"touch,pointer"`) |
+
+## Text
+
+### SplitText
+
+Splits an element’s text into characters, words, and/or lines (each in its own element) for staggered or per-unit animation. Use when animating text character-by-character, word-by-word, or line-by-line. Returns an instance with **chars**, **words**, **lines** (and **masks** when `mask` is set). Restore original markup with **revert()** or let **gsap.context()** revert. Integrates with **gsap.context()**, **matchMedia()**, and **useGSAP()**. API: **SplitText.create(target, vars)** (target = selector, element, or array).
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(SplitText);
+
+const split = SplitText.create('.heading', { type: 'words, chars' });
+gsap.from(split.chars, { opacity: 0, y: 20, stagger: 0.03, duration: 0.4 });
+// later: split.revert() or let gsap.context() cleanup revert
+```
+
+With **onSplit()** (v3.13.0+), animations run on each split and on re-split when **autoSplit** is used; returning a tween/timeline from **onSplit()** lets SplitText clean up and sync progress on re-split:
+
+```javascript
+SplitText.create('.split', {
+  type: 'lines',
+  autoSplit: true,
+  onSplit(self) {
+    return gsap.from(self.lines, { y: 100, opacity: 0, stagger: 0.05, duration: 0.5 });
+  },
+});
+```
+
+**SplitText — key config (SplitText.create vars):**
+
+| Option                                         | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
+| ---------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **type**                                       | Comma-separated: `"chars"`, `"words"`, `"lines"`. Default `"chars,words,lines"`. Only split what is needed (e.g. `"words, chars"` if not using lines) for performance. Avoid chars-only without words/lines or use **smartWrap: true** to prevent odd line breaks.                                                                                        |
+| **charsClass**, **wordsClass**, **linesClass** | CSS class on each split element. Append `"++"` to add an incremented class (e.g. `linesClass: "line++"` → `line1`, `line2`, …).                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
+| **aria**                                       | `"auto"` (default), `"hidden"`, or `"none"`. Accessibility: `"auto"` adds `aria-label` on the split element and `aria-hidden` on line/word/char elements so screen readers read the label; `"hidden"` hides all from readers; `"none"` leaves aria unchanged. Use `"none"` plus a screen-reader-only duplicate if nested links/semantics must be exposed. |
+| **autoSplit**                                  | When `true`, reverts and re-splits when fonts finish loading or when the element width changes (and lines are split), avoiding wrong line breaks. **Animations must be created inside onSplit()** so they target the newly split elements; **return** the animation from **onSplit()** for automatic cleanup and time-sync on re-split.                   |
+| **onSplit(self)**                              | Callback when split completes (and on each re-split if **autoSplit** is `true`). Receives the SplitText instance. Returning a GSAP tween or timeline enables automatic revert/sync of that animation when re-splitting.                                                                                                                                   |
+| **mask**                                       | `"lines"`, `"words"`, or `"chars"`. Wraps each unit in an extra element with `overflow: clip` for mask/reveal effects. Only one type; access wrappers on the instance’s **masks** array (or use class `-mask` if a class is set).                                                                                                                         |
+| **tag**                                        | Wrapper element tag; default `"div"`. Use `"span"` for inline (note: transforms like rotation/scale may not render on inline elements in some browsers).                                                                                                                                                                                                  |
+| **deepSlice**                                  | When `true` (default), nested elements (e.g. `<strong>`) that span multiple lines are subdivided so lines don’t stretch vertically. Only applies when splitting lines.                                                                                                                                                                                    |
+| **ignore**                                     | Selector or element(s) to leave unsplit (e.g. `ignore: "sup"`).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
+| **smartWrap**                                  | When splitting **chars** only, wraps words in a `white-space: nowrap` span to avoid mid-word line breaks. Ignored if words or lines are split. Default `false`.                                                                                                                                                                                           |
+| **wordDelimiter**                              | Word boundary: string (default `" "`), RegExp, or `{ delimiter: RegExp, replaceWith: string }` for custom splitting (e.g. zero-width joiner for hashtags, or non-Latin).                                                                                                                                                                                  |
+| **prepareText(text, parent)**                  | Function that receives raw text and parent element; return modified text before splitting (e.g. to insert break markers for languages without spaces).                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
+| **propIndex**                                  | When `true`, adds a CSS variable with index on each split element (e.g. `--word: 1`, `--char: 2`).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        |
+| **reduceWhiteSpace**                           | Collapse consecutive spaces; default `true`. From v3.13.0 also honors line breaks and can insert `<br>` for `<pre>`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
+| **onRevert**                                   | Callback when the instance is reverted.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
+
+**Tips:** Split only what is animated (e.g. skip chars if only animating words). For custom fonts, split after they load (e.g. `document.fonts.ready.then(...)`) or use **autoSplit: true** with **onSplit()**. To avoid kerning shift when splitting chars, use CSS `font-kerning: none; text-rendering: optimizeSpeed;`. Avoid `text-wrap: balance`; it can interfere with splitting. SplitText does not support SVG `<text>`.

+
+### ScrambleText
+
+Animates text with a scramble/glitch effect. Use when revealing or transitioning text with a scramble.
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(ScrambleTextPlugin);
+
+gsap.to('.text', {
+  duration: 1,
+  scrambleText: { text: 'New message', chars: '01', revealDelay: 0.5 },
+});
+```
+
+## SVG
+
+### DrawSVG (DrawSVGPlugin)
+
+Reveals or hides the stroke of SVG elements by animating `stroke-dashoffset` / `stroke-dasharray`. Works on `<path>`, `<line>`, `<polyline>`, `<polygon>`, `<rect>`, `<ellipse>`. Use when “drawing” or “erasing” strokes.
+
+**drawSVG value:** Describes the **visible segment** of the stroke along the path (start and end positions), not “animate from A to B over time.” Format: `"start end"` in percent or length. Examples: `"0% 100%"` = full stroke; `"20% 80%"` = stroke only between 20% and 80% (gaps at both ends). The tween animates from the element’s **current** segment to the **target** segment — e.g. `gsap.to("#path", { drawSVG: "0% 100%" })` goes from whatever it is now to full stroke. Single value (e.g. `0`, `"100%"`) means start is 0: `"100%"` is equivalent to `"0% 100%"`.
+
+**Required:** The element must have a visible stroke — set `stroke` and `stroke-width` in CSS or as SVG attributes; otherwise nothing is drawn.
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(DrawSVGPlugin);
+
+// draw from nothing to full stroke
+gsap.from('#path', { duration: 1, drawSVG: 0 });
+// or explicit segment: from 0–0 to 0–100%
+gsap.fromTo('#path', { drawSVG: '0% 0%' }, { drawSVG: '0% 100%', duration: 1 });
+// stroke only in the middle (gaps at ends)
+gsap.to('#path', { duration: 1, drawSVG: '20% 80%' });
+```
+
+**Caveats:** Only affects stroke (not fill). Prefer single-segment `<path>` elements; multi-segment paths can render oddly in some browsers. Contents of `<use>` cannot be visually changed. **DrawSVGPlugin.getLength(element)** and **DrawSVGPlugin.getPosition(element)** return stroke length and current position.
+
+**Learn more:** [DrawSVG](https://gsap.com/docs/v3/Plugins/DrawSVGPlugin)
+
+### MorphSVG (MorphSVGPlugin)
+
+Morphs one SVG shape into another by animating the `d` attribute (path data). Start and end shapes do not need the same number of points — MorphSVG converts to cubic beziers and adds points as needed. Use for icon-to-icon morphs, shape transitions, or path-based animations. Works on `<path>`, `<polyline>`, and `<polygon>`; `<circle>`, `<rect>`, `<ellipse>`, and `<line>` are converted internally or via **MorphSVGPlugin.convertToPath(selector | element)** (replaces the element in the DOM with a `<path>`).
+
+**morphSVG value:** Can be a **selector** (e.g. `"#lightning"`), an **element**, **raw path data** (e.g. `"M47.1,0.8 73.3,0.8..."`), or for polygon/polyline a **points string** (e.g. `"240,220 240,70 70,70 70,220"`). For full config use the **object form** with **shape** as the only required property.
+
+```javascript
+gsap.registerPlugin(MorphSVGPlugin);
+
+// convert primitives to path first if needed:
+MorphSVGPlugin.convertToPath('circle, rect, ellipse, line');
+
+gsap.to('#diamond', { duration: 1, morphSVG: '#lightning', ease: 'power2.inOut' });
+// object form:
+gsap.to('#diamond', {
+  duration: 1,
+  morphSVG: { shape: '#lightning', type: 'rotational', shapeIndex: 2 },
+});
+```
+
+**MorphSVG — key config (morphSVG object):**

+| Option           | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                |
+| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| **shape**        | _(Required.)_ Target shape: selector, element, or raw path string.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
+| **type**         | `"linear"` (default) or `"rotational"`. Rotational uses angle/length interpolation and can avoid kinks mid-morph; try it when linear looks wrong.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
+| **map**          | How segments are matched: `"size"` (default), `"position"`, or `"complexity"`. Use when start/end segments don’t line up; if none work, split into multiple paths and morph each.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
+| **shapeIndex**   | Offsets which point in the start path maps to the first point in the end path (avoids shape “crossing over” or inverting). Number for single-segment paths; **array** for multi-segment (e.g. `[5, 1, -8]`). Negative reverses that segment. Use **shapeIndex: "log"** once to log the auto-calculated value, then paste the number/array into the tween. **findShapeIndex(start, end)** (separate utility) provides an interactive UI to find a good value. Only applies to closed paths. |
+| **smooth**       | (v3.14+). Adds smoothing points. Number (e.g. `80`), `"auto"`, or object: `{ points: 40 \| "auto", redraw: true \| false, persist: true \| false }`. `redraw: false` keeps original anchors (perfect fidelity, less even spacing). `persist: false` removes added points when the tween ends. Use when the default morph looks jagged or unnatural.                                                                                                                                        |
+| **curveMode**    | Boolean (v3.14+). Interpolates control-handle angle/length instead of raw x/y to avoid kinks on curves. Try if a morph has a mid-morph kink.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
+| **origin**       | Rotation origin for **type: "rotational"**. String: `"50% 50%"` (default) or `"20% 60%, 35% 90%"` for different start/end origins.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
+| **precision**    | Decimal places for output path data; default `2`.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
+| **precompile**   | Array of precomputed path strings (or use **precompile: "log"** once, copy from console). Skips expensive startup calculations; use for very complex morphs. Only for `<path>` (convert polygon/polyline first).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
+| **render**       | Function(rawPath, target) called each update — e.g. draw to canvas. RawPath is an array of segments (each segment = array of alternating x,y cubic bezier coords).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
+| **updateTarget** | When using **render** (e.g. canvas-only), set **updateTarget: false** so the original `<path>` is not updated. **MorphSVGPlugin.defaultUpdateTarget** sets default.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        |
+
+**Utilities:** **MorphSVGPlugin.convertToPath(selector | element)** converts circle/rect/ellipse/line/polygon/polyline to `<path>` in the DOM. **MorphSVGPlugin.rawPathToString(rawPath)** and **stringToRawPath(d)** convert between path strings and raw arrays. The plugin stores the original `d` on the target (e.g. for tweening back: `morphSVG: "#originalId"` or the same element).
+
+**Tips:** For twisted or inverted morphs, set **shapeIndex** (use `"log"` or findShapeIndex()). For multi-segment paths, **shapeIndex** is an array (one value per segment). Precompile only when the first frame is slow; it does not fix jank during the tween (simplify the SVG or reduce size if needed).

+## Best practices
+
+- ✅ Register every plugin used with **gsap.registerPlugin()** before first use.
+- ✅ Use **Flip.getState()** → DOM change → **Flip.from()** for layout transitions; use **Draggable** + **InertiaPlugin** for drag with momentum.
+- ✅ Revert plugin instances (e.g. `SplitTextInstance.revert()`) when components unmount or elements are removed.
+
+## Do Not
+
+- ❌ Use a plugin in a tween or API without registering it first (**gsap.registerPlugin()**).
+- ❌ Ship GSDevTools or development-only plugins to production.

+## 🚨 Edge-Case & Failure Mode Matrix
+
+| Scenario | Risk | Mitigation Strategy |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| **Empty or Null Inputs** | Unhandled exception or unexpected rendering collapse | Enforce fallback guards, optional chaining, and explicit empty state handlers |
+| **Network Timeout / Latency** | Hanging operations or duplicate side-effects | Implement bounded abort controllers, exponential backoff, and idempotency keys |
+| **Concurrency / Race Conditions** | Stale state overwrite or inconsistent data mutations | Use atomic transactions, mutex locking, or cancel-on-resubmit controls |
+| **Invalid Schema / Malformed Payload** | Downstream runtime errors or security injection | Validate boundary payloads with Zod/Pydantic schemas prior to execution |
+| **Resource / Memory Saturation** | OOM errors, frame drops, or memory leaks | Clean up listeners, cancel active timers, and enforce pagination/virtualization |

+## 🤖 LLM-Specific Traps Table
+
+| Anti-Pattern | What AI Commonly Does Wrong | What Is Actually Correct |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| **The Instant Pop Trap** | Conditionally unmounting elements without animated interpolation | Use AnimatePresence or coordinate morphs with continuous geometry |
+| **Layout Thrashing** | Animating width, height, top, or left inside animation loops | Animate composite-only transform (translate3d, scale) and opacity |
+| **Sluggish Duration** | Setting micro-interaction transitions to 600ms+ causing interface lag | Cap interactive feedback at 160ms–240ms with snappy ease-out curves |

+
+### ✅ Pre-Flight Self-Audit Checklist
+
+```
+✅ Does animation maintain 60fps/120fps using transform and opacity?
+✅ Is optical mass conserved across state interpolations without volume collapse?
+✅ Is duration capped within micro-interaction budgets (160ms–280ms)?
+✅ Is prefers-reduced-motion respected with graceful instant fallbacks?
+✅ Did I prevent layout thrashing and continuous geometry mutations?
+```

+### 🛑 Verification-Before-Completion (VBC) Protocol
+
+**CRITICAL:** You must follow a strict "evidence-based closeout" state machine.
+- ❌ **Forbidden:** Declaring a task complete because the output "looks correct."
+- ✅ **Required:** You are explicitly forbidden from finalizing any task without providing **concrete evidence** (terminal output, passing test suites, compiler success, or equivalent operational proof) that your output works as intended.
