High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Send a GET request to https://tenor.googleapis.com/v2/search with parameters q, limit, and key using curl. Pipe the JSON response through jq to extract GIF URLs from .results[].media_formats.gif.url.
First query the Tenor search endpoint and extract the top result URL with jq, then run curl -sL on that URL with -o to save the file locally. The Skill demonstrates this as a two-command pipeline.
You need a TENOR_API_KEY environment variable, obtainable free from the Google Cloud Console Tenor API quickstart. The free key has generous rate limits and is set in ~/.gpucloud/.env.
Each result includes gif, tinygif, mp4, tinymp4, webm, and nanogif formats under .media_formats. Use tinygif for lightweight chat previews and gif for full quality.
Common causes include a missing or invalid TENOR_API_KEY, unencoded spaces or special characters in the query, or an overly strict contentfilter setting. URL-encode spaces as + and verify the key is exported in your environment.
