CLI Demo GIF Generator

Generate terminal demo GIFs using vhs. When asked to create a CLI demo GIF, produce a .tape file and render it.

Steps

1. Create tape file

Place tape files in docs/demo/ to keep the project root clean:

mkdir -p docs/demo

Write the tape file with appropriate settings for the project's CLI:

Output docs/demo/demo.gif

Set Shell "bash"
Set FontSize 16
Set Width 900
Set Height 500
Set Padding 20
Set Theme "Catppuccin Mocha"
Set TypingSpeed 50ms

Type "command --help"
Enter
Sleep 2s

2. For unpublished CLI packages

Use Hide/Show to configure aliases before the visible demo starts:

Hide
Type "alias mycli='bun run src/cli/index.ts'"
Enter
Sleep 500ms
Show

Type "mycli --help"
Enter
Sleep 2s

3. Render the GIF

vhs docs/demo/cli.tape

How to use this skill

1

Install cli-demo-gif by running npx skills add b-open-io/prompts --skill cli-demo-gif in your project directory. Run the install command above in your project directory. The skill file will be downloaded from GitHub and placed in your project.

2

No configuration needed. Your AI agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) automatically detects installed skills and uses them as context when generating code.

3

The skill enhances your agent's understanding of cli-demo-gif, helping it follow established patterns, avoid common mistakes, and produce production-ready output.

What you get

Skills are plain-text instruction files — not executable code. They encode expert knowledge about frameworks, languages, or tools that your AI agent reads to improve its output. This means zero runtime overhead, no dependency conflicts, and full transparency: you can read and review every instruction before installing.

Compatibility

This skill works with any AI coding agent that supports the skills.sh format, including Claude Code (Anthropic), Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Aider, and other tools that read project-level context files. Skills are framework-agnostic at the transport level — the content inside determines which language or framework it applies to.

Data sourced from the skills.sh registry and GitHub. Install counts and security audits are updated regularly.
