About this skill
What it does. Extracts frames and optional narration from a screen recording, reconstructs the apps, actions, data flow and repetition, then asks for confirmation. It fingerprints the environment and proposes up to three tiers of working automation, from a quick command to a scheduled script, with dry runs, tests, error handling and cleanup.
When to use it. For repetitive manual workflows captured on screen. It does not propose automation until the reconstructed process is confirmed, and it can continue without Whisper when narration transcription is unavailable.
