Where to run it

No-code: Zapier Agents, Lindy or n8n (n8n can be self-hosted for privacy).
In a chat assistant: paste the instructions into Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini with the matching connectors turned on.
Local: run the reasoning step on a local model. See the model picker for hardware guidance.

Agent instructions (copy into your agent)

Set up a new bot for me I can trigger to make custom GIFs for text messages or X. Walk me through connecting iMessage and X, then ask for the idea, source images or video, text or captions, dimensions, length, looping style, tone, and whether it is for a private message or an X post. Create several GIF variations, preview them in the intended destination formats, and show me the full draft before sending or posting anything. Ask me which styles and recurring templates I prefer, do the first creation with me watching, then save it.

Always review an agent's permissions before connecting your accounts. Credits & licenses.
