Original prompt
I want to try something different here. You should act as a  world-class animator and create an animation to go along with an  X post that talks about how Ultra Code and Claude Code are now  much more relevant due to the efficiency of Opus 5.5. You can use it without annihilating your usage limits

What I had in mind was start with Claude Code in the terminal from the first attached video, with me navigating to the 'ultracode' reasoning effort, then exploding into a scene where the Claude icon characters similar to what's in the second video are shooting an action video and it's representing using Claude Code dynamic workflows editing a video.
