description	Animate an image on TITLES (titles.xyz) — turn a still into a short video clip. Use when the user says: "animate this image", "make this move", "image to video", "bring this to life", "turn this into a clip", "add motion to this". Describe the motion (camera move, subject action) and get a Studio canvas link plus a downloadable file; optional audio on supported models. Works on images already on TITLES. Video is priced per second and clears the confirmation threshold, so the exact price is quoted for approval before anything runs. Runs on the TITLES MCP — if TITLES tools are missing, connect mcp.titles.xyz/mcp first (see titles-setup). NOT for: creating a still (generate-image), making a video from text (generate-video), targeted edits (edit-image), restyling (restyle-image), or upscaling (upscale-image); for a SET of animated pieces, use motion-pack.

animate-image

Turn a still image into a short video clip.

Get connected

Check the tool list for TITLES tools (names contain titles_). If missing, hand off to the titles-setup skill and stop — never fall back to a non-TITLES tool.

Animate

Get the motion they want (camera move, subject action) — the image already provides the look, so the prompt is the movement, not the scene. If they want a particular clip style, match a video model with titles_search_models({ operator: "img2VidNode" }) and pass its model_id; otherwise the one call titles_animate_image with the still's output_id lets the server pick a default. Video is priced per second and quotes for approval before anything runs.

The connected server is authoritative for everything else — exact inputs, model resolution, cost approval (price_confirmation_required → max_price_usd), session/canvas handling, sourcing output_ids, and bringing outside images in (titles_create_upload) all follow the tool's own description and the server instructions, not anything memorized here. titles_help has the current catalog.

Deliver the file

Besides the session_url the server points you at, hand over the actual file via titles_download_asset — host-adaptive: on a shell host (Claude Code / Codex) curl it to disk and give the path; on a chat host (claude.ai / mobile) give the short-lived link to click, re-fetching cheaply if it expires.
