Does it require any special permissions?

Yes, it requires macOS Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions to discover window bounds and capture on-screen content.

How does the verification logic work?

It runs multiple checks after recording to ensure the file exists, has the correct duration, contains the expected frame count, and captured actual motion.

Can I record specific regions of an IDE or terminal?

Yes, you can specify window-relative coordinates to capture only specific UI elements like a terminal panel or a sidebar instead of the entire window.

Does this skill work across multiple macOS Spaces?

Yes, it automatically detects if a window is on another virtual desktop and switches to it before recording, returning to your original Space once finished.

What output formats are supported?

The skill supports GIF, WebP, MP4, and MOV formats, with optimized presets to ensure files meet size limits for platforms like Discord (10MB) and GitHub (5MB).

生産性とワークフロー

Captures and optimizes macOS screen recordings into platform-specific formats like GIF and WebP for documentation and collaboration.

The macOS Screen Recorder skill provides a robust framework for capturing high-quality window or region-specific recordings directly through Claude. It handles the complexities of macOS window discovery, virtual Space switching, and automated verification to ensure recordings are successful. With built-in presets for GitHub READMEs, Discord, and the JetBrains Marketplace, it streamlines the process of creating visual artifacts for pull requests, bug reports, and product documentation without ever leaving your terminal environment.
