# Smart Meme Generator 🎭

Generate actual meme images from any topic. Uses imgflip API (free) for real image generation — returns shareable URLs.

## How It Works

Two-step process:
1. **Template selection** — analyzes topic keywords to pick the best meme format
2. **Image generation** — creates the actual meme image with your captions via imgflip API

The agent (you) provides the creative captions. The script handles template matching and image creation.

## Commands

### Select best template for a topic
```bash
python3 scripts/generate_meme.py "your topic here"
```
Returns recommended template and box count.

### Generate actual meme image
```bash
python3 scripts/generate_meme.py --template drake --captions "Bad option" "Good option"
```
Returns a real image URL (e.g., `https://i.imgflip.com/xxxxx.jpg`).

### List all templates
```bash
python3 scripts/generate_meme.py --list
```

### JSON output (for automation)
```bash
python3 scripts/generate_meme.py --template drake --captions "text1" "text2" --json
```

## Workflow for Agent

When user asks for a meme:
1. Run template selection with their topic to get the best format
2. Write witty, specific captions that fit the template (be creative, match internet humor)
3. Generate the image with `--captions`
4. Send the image URL to the user

**Caption tips:**
- Keep text SHORT — memes aren't essays
- Use internet humor conventions (lowercase, no periods, specific > generic)
- Match the template's energy (drake = preference, pikachu = obvious outcome, etc.)
- Be specific to the topic — generic captions are never funny
