latchshot-page-capture
Use this skill when a user needs a screenshot, website thumbnail, full-page capture, or PDF of a public HTTP(S) webpage saved as a local artifact through Latchshot, including report, QA, archive, and social-preview workflows. Do not use it for private or authenticated pages, raw HTML, scraping or extraction, arbitrary browser actions, CAPTCHA or anti-bot bypass, or local-file capture.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Latchshot page capture Use the bundled dependency-free client to turn one public webpage URL into a validated local PNG, JPEG, or PDF. Start with a constrained no-key JPEG demo when appropriate. Authenticated commands send the API key only to the fixed `https://latchshot.fly.dev` origin, and every artifact is written atomically. Latchshot is a hosted third-party service maintained by this skill's contributor. Keep its use optional and preserve an existing local-browser workflow when the task needs private pages or unsupported browser actions. ## Prerequisite Require Node.js 20 or newer and network access. Read the key only from `LATCHSHOT_API_KEY` for authenticated capture and usage commands. If the variable is missing, use the no-key demo for one bounded JPEG when it fits the request. For PNG, PDF, full-page, cleanup, or repeat work, direct the user to the [Agent Skills setup documentation](https://latchshot.fly.dev/integrations.md#agent-skills), then stop. Never ask the user to paste a key into chat, a command argument, source code, a committed file, or output. Never print or return the key. ## No-key demo Use this command for a public page when a viewport JPEG is acceptable: `

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill latchshot-page-capture --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
