Ran the bundled macOS helper live: the mandatory Swift preflight check crashed with a toolchain/SDK mismatch and produced zero output, while a plain `screencapture -x` command (the skill's own documented fallback) succeeded instantly with an identical result.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 3/10
  • Docs & honesty 3/5

What Screenshot Capture does

Captures full-screen, specific-app/window, or pixel-region screenshots on macOS, Linux, and Windows using OS-native tools (screencapture, scrot/gnome-screenshot/import, or a PowerShell helper), with a Swift-based Screen Recording permission preflight on macOS. Triggers when a user explicitly asks for a desktop/system screenshot or when no better tool-specific capture (Figma MCP, Playwright) is available; the macOS preflight can fail on machines with a mismatched Xcode toolchain, falling back to a documented direct screencapture command.

How to install Screenshot Capture

git clone https://github.com/VoDaiLocz/KILO-KIT
cd KILO-KIT
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r skills/ai-media/screenshot ~/.claude/skills/screenshot

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.
