gif-creator

gif-creator is a skill for Claude Code from naveedharri/benai-skills. It costs 124 tokens per session (2,170 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A visual-content workflow for making animated GIFs and static PNG infographics for LinkedIn posts. It first proposes several layouts, such as a process flow or comparison grid, and waits for approval before creating one.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan and create LinkedIn visuals that explain workflows, comparisons, timelines, tool lists, or other structured ideas.
Why use it?
It helps turn a process or step-by-step idea into a planned visual instead of immediately choosing an unsuitable layout.

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

gif-creator 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 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (references/template-code.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 196 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

LinkedIn Visual Animation

Create polished, on-brand animated GIF and static PNG infographics for LinkedIn posts. These visuals follow Ben AI's exact brand guidelines and are designed for maximum engagement on LinkedIn.

Two-Step Process

This skill follows a strict two-step interactive process. Never skip to creating the visual without Step 1 approval.

Step 1: Suggest Visualization Approaches

Before creating anything, propose 2-3 different ways to visualize the content. Consider:

  • Vertical process flow: Steps stacked top-to-bottom with arrows (best for sequential workflows, 4-10 steps)
  • Comparison grid: Side-by-side cards comparing approaches (best for before/after, tool comparisons)
  • Hub and spoke: Central concept with radiating connections (best for ecosystems, tool stacks)
  • Timeline: Horizontal or vertical timeline with milestones (best for journeys, evolution)
  • Numbered list cards: Clean cards with numbers (best for tips, tools lists, rankings)

For each suggestion, briefly explain:

  1. The layout type
  2. What content goes in each card/node
  3. Why it fits this particular content

Wait for user to confirm which approach before proceeding.

Step 2: Create the GIF and PNG

Once the approach is confirmed, build the visual using PIL/Pillow following the exact brand guidelines below. Always output both:

  • An animated GIF (nodes appearing one by one)
  • A static PNG (final frame, for fallback)

Save both to the outputs folder.

Brand Guidelines

These are non-negotiable. Every visual must follow these exactly.

Canvas Size

  • Final output: 800 x 998 pixels (portrait, ~4:5 ratio — optimal for LinkedIn)
  • Render at 3x: 2400 x 2994 pixels, then downscale with LANCZOS for crisp text
  • Never change these dimensions

Colors

Role Color Hex
Background Light yellow #FAF3E3 (250, 243, 227)
Card background White #FFFFFF (255, 255, 255)
Border / shadow / text Near-black #020309 (2, 3, 9)
Title accent Green (72, 160, 120)
Gray text (descriptions) Gray (100, 100, 100)
Divider lines Warm gray (210, 205, 190)

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
