Can I use my own images as a starting point?

Absolutely. The skill can load user-uploaded images via PIL to animate them directly or use them as a creative reference for colors and style.

How does it handle file size limits for Slack?

It provides automated optimization strategies like reducing color counts to 48-128, lowering FPS, and removing duplicate frames to ensure compatibility.

What types of animation effects can I generate?

The skill includes logic for sophisticated effects such as pulsing (heartbeats), bouncing, rotating, fading, sliding, and even complex particle explosions.

Does this skill support Slack emoji constraints?

Yes, it specifically targets Slack's 128x128 recommendation and includes optimization tools to keep file sizes small enough for emoji usage.

What Python libraries are required for this skill?

The workflow relies on standard image processing libraries including Pillow, imageio, and numpy to handle frame rendering and GIF assembly.

Generates high-quality, optimized animated GIFs specifically tailored for Slack emojis and messages using Python-based animation workflows.

Acerca de

The Slack GIF Creator skill empowers Claude with the specialized knowledge and utilities required to programmatically build, validate, and optimize animated GIFs for Slack environments. It bridges the gap between raw code and visual content by providing constraints for Slack's unique requirements, sophisticated easing functions for smooth motion, and a robust GIFBuilder for assembly. This skill is ideal for developers who need to generate polished, low-file-size animations from scratch or transform user-uploaded images into professional-grade Slack reactions and message assets.
