# proofshot output preview
## PART A: Task fit
- Use case: Visual verification of UI features. Use after building or modifying any ProofShot is an open-source, agent-agnostic CLI that lets you verify your own work in a real browser — video proof, screenshots, and error reports, no vendor lock-in. runs entirely locally. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Cline and 23 more..
- Inputs: target material, constraints, expected output, and acceptance criteria.
- Evidence boundary: follow “When to use / The workflow (always follow these 3 steps) / Step 1: Start the session” and do not present inference as author intent.
## PART B: Execution result
- **01** The card summarizes the use case; runtime output centers on “Visual verification of UI features. Use after building or modifying any ProofShot is an open-source, agent-agnostic CLI that lets you verify your own work in a real browser — video proof, screenshots, and error reports, no vendor lock-in. runs entirely locally. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Cline and 23 more.”.
- **02** When the source has headings, the agent prioritizes “When to use / The workflow (always follow these 3 steps) / Step 1: Start the session” so the result follows the author’s structure.
- **03** Typical output includes task judgment, concrete steps, required commands or file edits, validation, and follow-up options.
- **04** Risk context follows the fingerprint: read files, write/modify files, run shell commands; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
## Running Rules
- read files, write/modify files, run shell commands; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding scope.
- Return the result, validation criteria, and next iteration options. The source does not require a stable slash command. After installation, invoke the skill by name and describe the task.
Name target files or source material, expected output, forbidden changes, and whether network or shell access is allowed. Permission fingerprint: read files, write/modify files, run shell commands.
Start with a small task and check whether the result follows “When to use / The workflow (always follow these 3 steps) / Step 1: Start the session”. Inspect diffs, logs, previews, or tests before expanding scope.
Confirm the final output includes a concrete result, evidence, and next action. If it stays generic, tighten inputs, boundaries, and acceptance criteria.

# proofshot
## When to use
- Visual verification of UI features. Use after building or modifying any ProofShot is an open-source, agent-agnostic CL…
- Use it when the task has clear inputs, repeatable steps, and validation criteria.
## What to provide
- Target material, scope, expected result, and forbidden changes.
- Whether network, commands, file writes, or external services are allowed.
## Execution rules
- Organize steps around “When to use / The workflow (always follow these 3 steps) / Step 1: Start the session” and keep inference separate from source facts.
- read files, write/modify files, run shell commands; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding the task.
## Output requirements
- Return the deliverable, key evidence, validation method, and next action.
- Mark missing information as unknown; do not invent commands, platforms, or dependencies. The author source anchors workflow facts; repository files anchor sources and commands; Fluxly only adds fit, limitations, and quality judgment.

} ProofShot — Visual Verification Workflow
ProofShot is an open-source, agent-agnostic CLI that lets you verify your own work in a real browser — video proof, screenshots, and error reports, no vendor lock-in.
When to use
Use ProofShot after:
- Building a new UI feature or page
- Modifying existing UI components
- Fixing a visual bug
- Any change that affects what the user sees
The workflow (always follow these 3 steps)
Step 1: Start the session
proofshot start --run "your-dev-command" --port PORT --description "what you are about to verify"
This opens a browser and begins recording. If the port is already in use, proofshot will kill the existing process automatically.
Always use --run to let proofshot start and capture your dev server output (server logs appear in the proof report).
Only omit --run if the server was explicitly started by the user or another process — without it, no server logs are captured.
If a previous session was not stopped cleanly, add --force to override it.
Step 2: Drive the browser and test
Use proofshot exec to navigate, interact, and verify:
proofshot exec snapshot -i # See interactive elements
proofshot exec open http://localhost:PORT/page # Navigate to a page
proofshot exec click @e3 # Click a button
proofshot exec fill @e2 "test@example.com" # Fill a form field
proofshot exec screenshot step-NAME.png # Capture key moments
Take screenshots at important moments — these become the visual proof. Verify what you expect to see by reading the snapshot output.
Step 3: Stop and bundle the proof
proofshot stop
This stops recording, collects console + server errors, and generates a SUMMARY.md with video, screenshots, and error report.
Step 4 (optional): Post proof to the PR
proofshot pr # Auto-detect PR from current branch
proofshot pr 42 # Target a specific PR number
This uploads screenshots and video to GitHub and posts a formatted comment on the PR. By default it uses the official GitHub contents API on a proofshot-artifacts branch. Use --upload-provider github-web-attachments if you specifically want GitHub attachment URLs.
Tips
- Always include a meaningful --description so the human knows what was tested
- Take screenshots before AND after key actions (e.g., before form submit, after redirect)
- If you find errors during verification, fix them and re-run the workflow
- Use
proofshot prafter stopping to attach proof directly to the pull request
