Description

A lightweight MCP server that converts video files to optimized GIF animations using FFmpeg. It supports configurable FPS, output dimensions (with aspect-ratio handling), start time and duration extraction, and optimized palette generation for higher-quality GIFs. The tool saves GIFs alongside the source video and is intended to be used as an extension in MCP-compatible clients (examples: Goose). It streamlines automated GIF generation for chat clients, pipelines, or other agent workflows.
