A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

The small print,
in plain English.

Does AgentShot send anything to an AI?+

No. AgentShot copies the image to your clipboard. You paste it into your chosen app and decide when to submit. The receiving app’s own data policies apply.

Where do my screenshots go?+

A capture is copied immediately and kept in memory as your last capture. It is saved to your Mac only when you choose Save, export it, or stage a file path. Saved captures are available in local History.

What does the Claude Code integration do?+

Optional session hooks let AgentShot discover verified local Claude Code sessions. You can stage a saved screenshot path with a message, then paste it yourself. It does not attach images automatically, select an exact terminal tab, or submit prompts.

How do I get started?+

Download the disk image and move AgentShot to Applications. This early build may be blocked by macOS because it is not notarized. Once open, the app lives in your menu bar. Grant Screen Recording when prompted, then use Shift–Command–2 to capture a region.

Can I change the shortcut?+

Yes. Open AgentShot Settings to choose another shortcut. macOS’s reserved screenshot shortcuts are excluded to prevent accidental system captures.
