About

Animated thinking/agent orb — six hand-tuned canvas states (working, searching, solving, listening, composing, shaping) in two tuned size presets (64px avatar / 20px inline). Theme-aware (auto/dark/light), SSR-safe, with speed and paused controls. Great for AI chat avatars and inline agent status indicators.

Built with React and Tailwind. Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude Code, Cursor or Lovable: your agent adds Thinking Orbs to your project and fits it to your theme.

Code

How Thinking Orbs is used: the demo's code. The component's own source comes with a free account.

Usage.tsx

import { ThinkingOrb } from "@/components/ui/thinking-orbs"

// Agent shaping — the 20px inline pill, exactly as on the original site.
export default function ThinkingOrbShapingDemo() {
  return (
    <div className="flex min-h-[360px] w-full items-center justify-center bg-[#070707] p-8">
      <div
        className="inline-flex h-9 items-center gap-2 rounded-full pl-2 pr-3.5"
        style={{
          background: "rgba(29,29,29,0.42)",
          boxShadow:
            "inset 0 0 0 1px rgba(44,47,54,0.31), inset 0 0 50px 0 rgba(255,255,255,0.012)",
        }}
      >
        <ThinkingOrb state="shaping" size={20} theme="dark" />
