Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a media skill usually calls an AI service over the internet.
By gooseworks-ai/goose-skills (GitHub) · media · 1,319 stars · scanned at commit df82981
Render a configurable iMessage conversation inside a properly framed phone, then a brand end card. Uses the original send/receive sounds and a shared frame timeline for text, typing, scrolling and sound. Free local Playwright + ffmpeg assembly; optional image/music generation belongs to separate gated capabilities.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'render-imessage-chat' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'render-imessage-chat' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named render-imessage-chat already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/gooseworks-ai/goose-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'df8298140d434a6363de0c265eb6af2e571d97a5' -- 'skills/video/render-imessage-chat' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/video/render-imessage-chat' ~/.agents/skills/'render-imessage-chat' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'render-imessage-chat' ~/.claude/skills/'render-imessage-chat' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
