terminal-capture

Automate CLI screenshot validation by defining TypeScript scenarios that spawn commands via node-pty, capture terminal output using xterm.js, and save screenshots with Playwright. This records deterministic visual states for every step of an interaction.

Yes, you can capture terminal output screenshots during PR review by running scenario configurations that execute slash commands like /about or /auth. The runner automatically captures and names screenshots for each command's output state.

Yes, terminal screenshot testing requires TypeScript scenario configurations to define interactions and uses Playwright to capture the visual output. You also need to install the Playwright browser binaries to execute the captures.

To record terminal interactions as GIFs for visual documentation, ensure ffmpeg is installed on your system. The Skill optionally records GIF streams of CLI commands and terminal output when ffmpeg is available.

Yes, you need node-pty and xterm.js to automate terminal UI testing because the Skill orchestrates node-pty to spawn the CLI process and xterm.js to render the terminal output before capturing it with Playwright.

Capturing full scrollback during CLI output validation ensures that streaming long-running outputs and progress states are recorded completely. This prevents missing visual changes that occur outside the visible terminal viewport.
