What problem does it solve?
Manually searching across multiple GIF providers, previewing results, downloading relevant clips, and extracting still frames or sheet previews is time-consuming and requires switching between multiple tools and browser tabs.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Cross-provider GIF search: Search Tenor and Giphy directly from the command line or an interactive terminal UI, eliminating the need to switch between browser tabs.
- Preview and download workflow: Browse search results in a TUI, download selected GIFs directly to your Downloads folder, and quickly reveal them in your system file manager.
- Still and sheet extraction: Pull individual still frames at specific timestamps or generate grid-style sheet previews of GIFs for quick review, documentation, pull requests, or chat sharing. For example, if you are creating a social media post and need a relevant reaction GIF, use this skill to search for the perfect clip, download it, and extract a still frame to use as a preview image.
Quick Start
Use the gifgrep skill to search for "office handshake" GIFs, download the top result, and extract a still frame at 1.5 seconds to use as a preview image for a social media post.
