## Example output

https://skills.varg.ai/previews/infsh-cli.mp4 — inference.sh's demo of an agent (Hermes Agent) driving the inference.sh CLI: it generates 'a cat with a top hat in anime style' with p-image, then animates it with p-video; the clip shows the terminal and the resulting video (credit: inference.sh (@inference_sh), https://x.com/inference_sh/status/2033891339176116299)
