Subscriber demos require KAGI_SESSION_TOKEN.

The demo scripts build the local debug binary, expose it as kagi through /tmp/*kagi*-demo-bin, and add short intro and outro pauses so the commands stay readable in the final GIFs.

The current demo commands are:

kagi search --format pretty --region us --time year --order recency "rust release notes"
kagi quick --format pretty "what is rust"
kagi summarize --subscriber --url https://mullvad.net/en/browser | jq -M ...
kagi news --category tech --limit 1 | jq -M ...
kagi ask-page https://rust-lang.org/ "What is this page about in one sentence?" | jq -M ...
kagi assistant "plan a private obsidian workflow for cafe work. give me 3 setup tips and a short checklist." | jq -M ...
RESPONSE=$(kagi assistant --model gpt-5-4-nano "..."); THREAD_ID=...; kagi assistant --thread-id "$THREAD_ID" "..."; kagi assistant thread export "$THREAD_ID"
kagi translate "Bonjour tout le monde" --to ja | jq -M ...

Rendering

Use the official asciinema agg binary when exporting GIFs. On this machine, the correct binary may be the Cargo-installed one rather than an unrelated npm package that also installs agg.

agg --theme asciinema --font-size 14 --idle-time-limit 2 --last-frame-duration 4 /tmp/kagi-demos/search.cast docs/public/images/demos/search.gif
