What

Regenerate docs/demo.gif — the README demo of Claude driving erbina.

Why

The old gif typed out the claude -p command and then stopped on a blank prompt: in headless mode nothing renders until the run finishes and the answer dumps at once, and the tape's Sleep 34s ran out before that happened. The payoff — the agent inspecting the httpie recipe, then bootstrapping + verifying — was never captured.

Fix

  • Bump the tape's Sleep from 34s55s so the recording comfortably outlasts a real run (~27s) plus MCP cold-start. The mpdecimate pass in scripts/record_demo.sh collapses the idle/static span, so the gif stays ~15s / 256K.
  • Regenerated against the current server (520 recipes). The gif now holds the full Detect → Install → Configure → Verify result table (httpie 3.2.4, http --version3.2.4 ✅).

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The old gif typed out the `claude -p` command and stopped on a blank
prompt — in headless mode nothing renders until the run finishes and the
answer dumps at once, and the tape's `Sleep 34s` ran out before that
happened, so the result was never captured.

Bump the sleep to 55s so the recording comfortably outlasts a real run
(~27s) plus MCP cold-start; the mpdecimate pass in record_demo.sh
collapses the idle/static span, so the gif stays ~15s. The regenerated
gif now holds the full Detect -> Install -> Configure -> Verify result
table (httpie 3.2.4, `http --version` -> 3.2.4).
