Plays and manages asciinema terminal recordings in a dedicated iTerm2 window with advanced playback controls.
This skill streamlines the playback of .cast terminal recordings by launching them in a clean, native iTerm2 window on macOS. It bypasses the limitations of browser-based players—such as memory crashes and lag with large files—and provides a professional CLI interface for controlling speed, idle time, and looping. Ideal for reviewing long DevOps sessions, debugging CLI workflows, or presenting terminal-based tutorials without taxing system resources.
