Record
Narrate what you’re seeing, in the app where it happens — a bug, a review note, a change you want. Draw on the page. Stop talking and it’s done.

Fix
Your coding agent pulls the brief over MCP — sheets, transcript, the errors that fired while you were talking — and starts the fix.

The hard part
Video is the worst thing you can hand a model.
Ninety seconds of screen capture is thousands of pictures of almost the same thing. Handback throws away the frames that say nothing, keeps the ones that do — and it decides while you’re still recording.
What you recorded
1:34 of screen capture · ~2,800 frames · almost all of them identical
The 41 frames that say something
Each one carries the position it was taken at, why it survived, and the pointer drawn into the picture — so a still is never a still with the subject missing.

- Compared against every frame it already kept
- Not just the one before it. A page that drifts a little at a time can’t slip through as “nothing changed” — the oldest thing still on screen is still being watched.
- Your clicks and keystrokes force a frame
- The instant you act is never an instant it threw away, even when the screen barely moved. A tooltip, a focus ring, a field that silently rejects you — all kept.
- Survivors are spread across the whole take
- A busy first minute doesn’t get to eat the budget. What’s kept stays even across the recording, so the end is covered as well as the opening.
Nine to an image, in order
A model reading consecutive frames side by side follows what happened. The same frames handed over one at a time, it doesn’t.
So the report leads with the sheets and the flow comes after. The first coding agent to read a real bundle called these the highest-value thing in it — and they cost a fraction of the tokens the same frames would have burned separately.
The full-size stills are still there. The report inlines one only where the narration is pointing at something, and names the rest by filename so an agent can open exactly the one it wants.
41 keyframes → 5 sheets → 9 tiles per image
One walkthrough
Everything you’d have had to write down.
You talked for ninety seconds. This is what came out of it — collected while you were speaking, so there was nothing to remember to do afterwards.
Everything you said
Timestamped, editable, and tied to the frames it’s about — people narrate what just happened, so each line knows the moment it’s describing.

It doesn't tell you it failed, which is the part that's killing us — people just assume it worked and bail at the total.

Second try, same thing. Watch the total.about 0:31–0:38
The moment you pointed at
Draw on the page mid-sentence. The stroke is captured into the recording, so “this number, right here” survives the trip to a model.
What happened underneath
The console and network failures that fired while you were talking — if anything did. You didn’t open devtools; you didn’t know to.

The recording itself
The one thing in the bundle that’s for you rather than the agent — for when a reviewer wants to watch it happen.

The handoff
What your agent actually gets.
Not a link to a video. Not a ticket with a screenshot stapled to it. One tool call, and the whole ninety seconds arrives as something it can read.

You are reading a walkthrough — a human using the running app, saying what’s wrong or what they’d change. Everything below sits on one timeline, in the order it happened. Read the images: they are the primary evidence, and the words are shorthand that assumes you looked.
Contact sheets — read these first
