Can it handle multi-monitor setups?

Yes. On macOS, it saves one file per display. On Windows and Linux, it captures the virtual desktop, which can then be isolated using region coordinates.

Does this work on all operating systems?

Yes, it includes dedicated helpers and fallback commands for macOS (Swift/Python), Linux (Python/scrot/gnome-screenshot), and Windows (PowerShell).

How are macOS permissions handled?

It includes a preflight script that checks and requests Screen Recording permissions in one step to avoid repeated sandbox prompts during capture.

Where are the screenshots saved?

You can specify a custom path, use the OS default screenshot location, or save to a temporary directory for internal AI inspection runs.

Can I capture just a specific app window?

On macOS, you can target apps by name, window title, or window ID. On Linux and Windows, you can capture the active window or a specific region.

Design Tools

Captures high-resolution system-level screenshots across macOS, Linux, and Windows for visual debugging and UI inspection.

This skill empowers Claude to capture and analyze visual data directly from the operating system, including full-screen views, specific application windows, and custom pixel regions. It provides a standardized interface for cross-platform screenshot tasks, handling complex requirements like macOS permissions, multi-display setups, and temporary file management for internal visual checks. It is particularly effective for front-end development, UI/UX audits, and verifying that implemented code matches design specifications when integrated browser tools are insufficient or unavailable.
