MoneyPrinter is Ollama-first: script generation and metadata are fully powered by local Ollama models.

MoneyPrinter now uses a DB-backed generation queue (API + worker + Postgres in Docker) for reliable, restart-safe processing.

How do I get the TikTok session ID?

You can obtain your TikTok session ID by logging into TikTok in your browser and copying the value of the sessionid cookie.

My ImageMagick binary is not being detected

MoneyPrinter auto-detects ImageMagick from your PATH on Linux, macOS, and Windows. If auto-detection fails, set the executable path manually in .env, for example:

IMAGEMAGICK_BINARY="C:\\Program Files\\ImageMagick-7.1.0-Q16\\magick.exe"

Don't forget to use double backslashes (\\) in the path, instead of one.
