What this skill does

GIIL — Get Image [from] Internet Link A zero-setup CLI that downloads full-resolution images from cloud photo shares. The missing link between your iPhone screenshots and remote AI coding sessions. Why This Exists The primary use case: Remote AI-Assisted Debugging You're SSH'd into a remote server running Claude Code, Codex, or another AI assistant. You need to debug a UI issue on your iPhone, but how do you get that screenshot to your remote terminal? Without giil: With giil: One command. AI sees it instantly. No file transfers, no context switching. The Workflow Why Cloud Shares Are Hard Problem Why It's Hard How giil Solves It --------- --------------- ------------------- JavaScript-heavy SPAs Standard curl/wget can't execute JS Headless Chromium via Playwright Dynamic image loading Images load asynchronously from CDN Network interception captures CDN responses No direct download links URLs are session-specific and expire Clicks Download button or intercepts live requests Copy/paste loses quality Manual screenshots compress images Captures original resolution from source HEIC format on Apple Many tools can't process HEIC/HEIF Platform-aware conversion (sips/heif-convert) Quick Start Note: First run downloads Playwright Chromium (~200MB, cached in ~/.cache/giil/). Supported Platforms Platform URL Patterns Method Browser Required ---------- -------------- -------- ------------------ iCloud share.icloud.com/photos/, icloud.com/photos/# 4-tier capture strategy Yes Dropbox dropbox.com/s/, dropbox.com/scl/fi/ Direct curl (raw=1) No Google Photos photos.app.goo.gl/, photos.google.com/share/ URL extraction + =s0 modifier Yes Google Drive drive.google.com/file/d/, drive.google.com/open?id= Multi-tier with auth detection Yes Dropbox Fast Path: Direct curl download with no browser overhead—typically 1-2 seconds. Google Photos Full-Res: Automatically appends =s0 to CDN URLs for maximum resolution. …
