Gorilla Cam

Gorilla Cam

Gorilla Cam makes Dunno's gorilla perform on his own site, records it, and posts it to X: a clip, or a still of its biggest moment. Each run is listed with every step it took. A post is made once, within the daily limit, and is only called posted once X shows it.

In the sidebar under Social → Gorilla Cam. Needs: Agents. It posts as an agent's X account, and reads Dunno's commands from his site (see Dunno).

Runs

Every run, newest first, with its state, caption, clip and X post, and why a run stopped. Make a clip now or Make a still now starts a run straight away.

Open a run to see every step: the Commands it played, Thought clouds, the Clip and its Format checks, and the post On X.

  • Approve and post or decline a run waiting for approval. The same request shows in Approvals.
  • Post or Discard a held run. Posting it goes through the daily limit and approval again. Discarding ends it without posting; its clip is kept.

Site

Where Dunno is: the Web address where the gorilla is recorded and the API address Max reads his commands from. The Agent key Max reads them with is sealed and never shown again; it can come from a Stored secret. Check reads Dunno's command list with the key and says which commands came back.

Settings

  • Agent and X account it posts as, and the AI connection it writes with.
  • Dry runs: make runs without posting.
  • Ask before each post: each post waits for a person to approve it here or in Approvals. Who switched this off, and when, is kept.
  • The daily limit, the gap between posts and the schedule. The screen shows Posts left in 24 hours and Next post allowed.
  • Captions may have links and Play live too.

Voice

The gorilla's voice guide that Max writes performances and captions in. Every change is kept as a new version.
