Install and run
Setup complexity: medium.
clawhub skill install s17b4cgnj1xp2tccd5dhbjvz49858pa7:capture-windows-screen- Setup complexity is MEDIUM. Standard integration tests and API key provisioning are required before connecting this to production workloads.
- Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.
Contract: missing

--- name: capture-windows-screen description: Capture the current Windows desktop from this WSL/OpenClaw environment and return the PNG path for inspection or delivery. Use when the user asks to screenshot the current screen, show what is on the Windows desktop, inspect a visible app/window, or send the latest screen image back to them. --- # Capture Windows Screen Use the bundled script for screenshot requests in this environment. It calls the Windows PowerShell helper, copies the PNG into a chosen staging folder, and prints the staged path. Use two staging modes: - **Analysis / inspection**: keep the default workspace `tmp-media/` staging. - **Messaging-surface delivery**: prefer `~/.openclaw/media/outbound/` so the file is already in OpenClaw's managed outbound media store. ## Quick workflow 1. For analysis or inspection, run `bash scripts/capture-windows-screen.sh` from this skill directory. 2. For delivery back to a chat app, run `STAGE_DIR=/home/lhs/.openclaw/media/outbound bash scripts/capture-windows-screen.sh`. 3. Treat the printed path as the staged screenshot to use next. 4. If the user wants the image in chat, prefer the managed outbound path from step 2 and send it with a bare `MEDIA:` line when possible. 5. If the user wants analysis, inspect the staged image after capture. ## Commands Analysis / inspection path: ```bash bash scripts/capture-windows-screen.sh ``` Delivery-safe path for chat apps: ```bash STAGE_DIR=/home/lhs/.openclaw/media/outbound bash scripts/capture-windows-screen.sh ``` Expected output: ```text /home/lhs/.openclaw/workspace/tmp-media/latest-screen-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.png ``` or, for delivery-safe staging: ```text /home/lhs/.openclaw/media/outbound/latest-screen-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.png ``` ## Environment assumptions This skill assumes these host-side paths exist: - PowerShell: `/mnt/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0/powershell.exe` - Capture helper: `C:\OpenClaw\capture-screen.ps1` - Screenshot output: `C:\OpenClaw\latest-screen.png` - WSL mirror path: `/mnt/c/OpenClaw/latest-screen.png` - Workspace staging directory for inspection copies: `/home/lhs/.openclaw/workspace/tmp-media` - Managed outbound media store for delivery retries / chat attachments: `/home/lhs/.openclaw/media/outbound` ## Failure handling - If PowerShell or the helper script is missing, check local machine-specific notes before changing paths. - If the command succeeds but the PNG is missing, rerun once, then verify the helper still writes to `C:\OpenClaw\latest-screen.png`. - If the browser shows the image but Telegram or another chat app does not receive it, assume the file stayed at local-preview level. Restage it into `/home/lhs/.openclaw/media/outbound` and retry using only the managed outbound path. - Do not assume a workspace `tmp-media/` path is delivery-safe just because the web UI can preview it. - Do not invent alternate screenshot commands unless the configured path is clearly broken.

## Description: Capture the current Windows desktop from this WSL/OpenClaw environment and return the PNG path for inspection or delivery. This skill is ready for commercial/non-commercial use. ## Publisher: [hansheng-li](https://clawhub.ai/user/hansheng-li) ### License/Terms of Use: MIT-0 ## Use Case: Developers and support agents use this skill to capture the visible Windows desktop from a WSL/OpenClaw session, inspect the resulting PNG, or stage it for delivery when a user asks to see the current screen. ### Deployment Geography for Use: Global ## Known Risks and Mitigations: Risk: The skill captures the full Windows desktop, which may include secrets, private messages, tokens, or unrelated open windows. Mitigation: Use it only on explicit request and avoid running it while sensitive or unrelated information is visible. Risk: The capture depends on a local C:\OpenClaw\capture-screen.ps1 helper outside the reviewed package. Mitigation: Review and protect that helper before deployment, and confirm it writes only the expected screenshot output. Risk: Screenshot staging directories can expose captured desktop images if they are broadly accessible. Mitigation: Restrict access to the staging directories and use the managed outbound media path only when delivery is intended. ## Reference(s): - [ClawHub skill page](https://clawhub.ai/hansheng-li/skills/capture-windows-screen) ## Skill Output: **Output Type(s):** [shell commands, text, guidance] **Output Format:** [Markdown with inline bash commands and plain text PNG paths] **Output Parameters:** [1D] **Other Properties Related to Output:** [Produces a staged screenshot path after copying the captured PNG into a workspace or outbound media directory.] ## Skill Version(s): 0.1.0 (source: release evidence) ## Ethical Considerations: Users should evaluate whether this skill is appropriate for their environment, review any generated or modified files before relying on them, and apply their organization's safety, security, and compliance requirements before deployment.
