Capture screenshots of local development projects using shot-scraper installed globally via pipx. Turn localhost URLs and local HTML files into PNGs, JPEGs, and PDFs for documentation, READMEs, and design reviews.
Core principle: Screenshots should be reproducible from a single command or YAML config, not manual screen captures. Version-control your screenshot configs alongside your code.

Use when capturing screenshots of local projects, documenting web app UI, taking screenshots of localhost dev servers, or generating images for READMEs and docs. Use when asked to "screenshot my app", "capture the UI", "take a screenshot of localhost", "generate screenshots for docs", "batch screenshot my pages", or "set up shot-scraper".
