Pipeline features an animated caption toggle which is overlayed on product images which include alt-tag information:

### How to setup

In your **Shopify Admin** under **Products**, add Alt-text captions to your product images. Click on the handle icon for each image and add your caption:

Edit and save the caption information under alt text:

Next, in the **Theme Editor** under the default Product template (or any product template), click on  **Product page** to view the settings. Next, scroll down under **Media** and ensure alt-text toggle is checked:

Customize the icon with the included icon library built-in to Pipeline. The icon appears only when an image contains alt-text information. Customize each product image to display unique captions.&#x20;

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://pipeline.groupthought.com/products/product-pages/alt-text-sizing-information.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
