Install and run
Setup complexity: low.
clawhub skill install s17emme0e2m3cpf7k2jvp3a84984b8z9:nm-scry-gif-generation- Setup complexity is classified as HIGH. You must provision dedicated cloud infrastructure or an isolated VM. Do not run this directly on your local workstation.
- Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

# GIF Generation Skill
Post-process video files (webm/mp4) and generate optimized GIF output with configurable quality settings.
## When To Use
- Converting recordings to animated GIF format
- Creating lightweight demo animations
## When NOT To Use
- High-quality video output - use full recording tools
- Static image generation without animation needs
## Overview
This skill handles the conversion of video recordings (typically from browser automation) to GIF format. It provides multiple quality presets and optimization options to balance file size with visual quality.
## Required TodoWrite Items
```
- Validate input video file exists
- Check ffmpeg installation
- Execute GIF conversion
- Verify output and report results
```
**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.
## Process
### Step 1: Validate Input File
Confirm the source video file exists and is a supported format:
```bash
# Check file exists and get info
if [[ -f "$INPUT_FILE" ]]; then
file "$INPUT_FILE"
ffprobe -v quiet -show_format -show_streams "$INPUT_FILE" 2>/dev/null | head -20
else
echo "Error: Input file not found: $INPUT_FILE"
exit 1
fi
```
**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.
Supported input formats: `.webm`, `.mp4`, `.mov`, `.avi`
### Step 2: Check ffmpeg Installation
Verify ffmpeg is available:
```bash
if ! comm_meta.json

## Description: Converts webm/mp4 video files to optimized GIFs via ffmpeg with configurable quality settings. This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use. ## Publisher: [athola](https://clawhub.ai/user/athola) ### License/Terms of Use: MIT-0 ## Use Case: Developers and engineers use this skill to convert screen recordings or other supported video files into shareable GIFs with configurable size and quality settings. ### Deployment Geography for Use: Global ## Known Risks and Mitigations: Risk: The skill may propose installing ffmpeg as a system package dependency. Mitigation: Treat any ffmpeg installation command as a separate user-approved system package action. Risk: GIF conversion writes an output file path selected during the workflow. Mitigation: Review the output path before running conversions and verify the generated file after completion. ## Reference(s): - [ClawHub skill page](https://clawhub.ai/athola/skills/nm-scry-gif-generation) - [OpenClaw homepage](https://github.com/athola/claude-night-market/tree/master/plugins/scry) ## Skill Output: **Output Type(s):** [text, markdown, shell commands, guidance] **Output Format:** [Markdown with inline bash commands and conversion presets] **Output Parameters:** [1D] **Other Properties Related to Output:** [Produces guidance for validating input videos, checking ffmpeg, running GIF conversions, and verifying output files.] ## Skill Version(s): 1.9.19 (source: server release evidence; artifact frontmatter lists 1.9.8) ## Ethical Considerations: Users should evaluate whether this skill is appropriate for their environment, review any generated or modified files before relying on them, and apply their organization's safety, security, and compliance requirements before deployment.
