😫 The Pain Point

You want to show a UI bug to the developer. A screenshot doesn’t show the movement. A video is too heavy to attach in Jira/Slack. GIF is the perfect middle ground.

πŸ—οΈ Phase 2: Architect (Permanent Tool)

For QA/Support Teams.

Engineering Prompt:

**Role:** Python Media Dev
**Task:** Create a "Video to GIF Converter".
**Requirements:**
1.  **GUI:**
    *   Select Video.
    *   Input: Start/End time (Optional cut).
    *   Slider: Quality/Size (FPS 10-30).
    *   "Convert" button.
2.  **Logic:**
    *   Use `moviepy.write_gif()`.
    *   Apply optimization (fuzz) to reduce file size.
3.  **Deliverables:** `video_to_gif.py`, `run.bat` (Windows), `run.sh` (Mac).

🧠 Prompt Decoding

  • Optimization: GIFs are inefficient formats (ancient technology). If you don’t resize and lower FPS, a 5-second GIF can be 50MB! Optimization is mandatory.
