Why
A 15-second terminal GIF is the single highest-ROI item for GitHub README conversion. On HN/Reddit, people scroll past text but stop at a visual demo. Every successful CLI tool has one (starship, mise, zoxide, fig).
What to record
The 5-minute AHA moment in ~15 seconds:
agentspec init --yes
agentspec validate agent.yaml
agentspec audit agent.yaml # show the grade + score
agentspec generate agent.yaml --framework langgraph --output ./agent/
ls ./agent/ # show generated files
Recommended tool
vhs — scriptable terminal GIF recorder by Charm. Write a .tape file, run vhs < demo.tape, get a deterministic GIF every time. Alternatively: asciinema + agg for GIF conversion.
