gifgrep

Use gifgrep to search GIF providers (Tenor/Giphy), browse in a TUI, download results, and extract stills or sheets.

GIF-Grab (gifgrep workflow)

  • Search -> preview -> download -> extract (still/sheet) for fast review and sharing.

Quick start

  • gifgrep cats --max 5
  • gifgrep cats --format url | head -n 5
  • gifgrep search --json cats | jq '.[0].url'
  • gifgrep tui "office handshake"
  • gifgrep cats --download --max 1 --format url

TUI + previews

  • TUI: gifgrep tui "query"
  • CLI still previews: --thumbs (Kitty/Ghostty only; still frame)

Download + reveal

  • --download saves to ~/Downloads
  • --reveal shows the last download in Finder

Stills + sheets

  • gifgrep still ./clip.gif --at 1.5s -o still.png
  • gifgrep sheet ./clip.gif --frames 9 --cols 3 -o sheet.png
  • Sheets = single PNG grid of sampled frames (great for quick review, docs, PRs, chat).
  • Tune: --frames (count), --cols (grid width), --padding (spacing).

Providers

  • --source auto|tenor|giphy
  • GIPHYAPIKEY required for --source giphy
  • TENORAPIKEY optional (Tenor demo key used if unset)

Output

  • --json prints an array of results (id, title, url, preview_url, tags, width, height)
  • --format for pipe-friendly fields (e.g., url)

GIF asset hygiene

  • Before recommending or using an animated GIF URL, verify it resolves successfully, has Content-Type: image/gif, and is actually animated (multiple frames or loop metadata; e.g. inspect with file, identify, or a small script).
  • Record attribution/license/source URL alongside the asset.
  • Do not hotlink when a local asset is needed: download/copy it into the project and reference the local file.

Environment tweaks

  • GIFGREPSOFTWAREANIM=1 to force software animation
  • GIFGREPCELLASPECT=0.5 to tweak preview geometry

  • Aacp-routerRoute plain-language requests for Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, OpenClaw ACP, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Grok Build, Qwen, Kiro, Kimi, iFlow, Factory Droid, Kilocode, or explicit ACP harness work into either OpenClaw ACP runtime sessions or direct acpx-driven sessions ("telephone game" flow). For coding-agent thread requests, read this skill first, then use only `sessions_spawn` for thread creation. Codex chat binding defaults to the native Codex app-server plugin unless ACP is explicit or background spawn needs ACP.

  • Aapple-remindersList, add, edit, complete, or delete Apple Reminders and reminder lists via remindctl.
  • Aauto-qaRun OpenClaw-wide autonomous QA and live/stress campaigns across independent subsystem lanes, with verified fixes and a resumable evidence report.
  • AautoreviewStructured code review through the shared OpenClaw agent-skills installation.
  • Abear-notesCreate, search, and manage Bear notes via grizzly CLI.
  • Ablock-kitUse proactively for structured or interactive Slack replies, and when asked to author or validate native Slack Block Kit JSON.
  • AblogwatcherMonitor blogs and RSS/Atom feeds for updates using the blogwatcher CLI.
  • AblucliBluOS CLI (blu) for discovery, playback, grouping, and volume.
