SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Slack teams often have to manually craft lightweight GIFs that meet Slack's size limits (2MB for messages, 64KB for emoji) and dimension guidelines, which is tedious and error-prone.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Validators for Slack size/dimensions to ensure emoji vs message constraints are met before export.
  • A library of animation primitives (bounce, shake, move, spin, fade, kaleidoscope) that can be composed for expressive GIFs.
  • Helper utilities for text rendering, color management, and frame composition to speed up production.

Quick Start

Provide a natural-language description of the desired Slack GIF and let the system generate a compliant, optimized animation.

Frequently Asked Questions about slack-gif-creator

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a Slack GIF that meets the 2MB message size limit?

To create a Slack GIF that meets the 2MB message limit, provide a natural-language prompt to the builder, which applies Slack-specific validators to enforce size and dimension constraints before exporting the optimized animation.

How do I make animated Slack emoji under 64KB?

You can make animated Slack emoji under 64KB by generating the animation from a descriptive prompt; the system's validators automatically enforce the strict 64KB size limit for Slack emoji alongside dimension guidelines.

What animation primitives can I use to compose GIF frames?

You can compose GIF frames using a library of modular animation primitives including bounce, shake, move, spin, fade, and kaleidoscope to create expressive, Slack-ready animated GIFs.

Can I use YAML frontmatter to configure GIF generation?

Yes, you can use YAML frontmatter to drive GIF generation and discovery, while optionally utilizing resources directories to organize scripts, references, and assets for your animations.

What is the best way to automate Slack GIF creation without manual resizing?

The best way to automate Slack GIF creation without manual resizing is using a prompt-driven builder that leverages helper utilities for text rendering and color management, automatically validating against Slack's size limits before export.
