animate-image

animate-image is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gooseworks-ai/goose-skills. It costs 34 tokens per session (376 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for turning an existing product image or static advertisement into a short branded video. It keeps the source image consistent while adding planned movement and an optional end frame.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to animate product visuals or ads, define camera and subject movement, choose the video duration and aspect ratio, and track the generation job until it finishes.
Why use it?
It avoids recreating the product from scratch and helps preserve the original visual identity during animation. The workflow also makes the motion goal and generation process explicit.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

animate-image scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Animate Image

Turn an existing product image or static ad into a short motion creative through GooseWorks. This skill uses the same backend workflow as the Animate Images interface.

Prerequisite

This workflow requires the GooseWorks MCP tools. If the animate-image tools are unavailable, explain that the connection or feature is not available and stop; do not substitute an unrelated image generator.

Workflow

  1. Resolve the brand and project. Use an existing render when one is available so provenance is preserved; otherwise use a public source image URL.
  2. Clarify the motion goal, duration, aspect ratio, and whether the user wants:
    • source image as the start frame;
    • source image as the end frame;
    • source plus a separate end-frame image.
  3. Write a motion prompt describing camera movement, subject movement, environment movement, pacing, and what must remain unchanged. Do not redesign the product or add unsupported claims.
  4. Call estimate_animate_image and confirm the quoted credits before generation.
  5. Call submit_animate_image once. Save the returned job ID.
  6. Poll get_animate_image until it completes or fails. Never re-submit a running job.
  7. Return the finished video URL and the source image used. If it fails, report the backend reason before proposing a retry.

Rules

  • Ask before spending credits.
  • Preserve product shape, logo, packaging, and on-image copy unless the user explicitly requests a change.
  • Prefer subtle, physically plausible motion for product shots and graphic ads.
  • A new prompt for an already-running job is a new paid generation; do not silently create it.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
