Skill393k starsChanged 7 days agoMITView on GitHub

Capture frames or clips from RTSP/ONVIF cameras and local webcams, including USB pan/tilt/zoom control.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. 1 is common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • 1

    Common

    Most of the 22 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 0

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Use camsnap to grab snapshots, clips, or motion events from configured cameras.

    line 27
  2. Common:

    Prefer a short test capture before longer clips.

    line 53

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 22 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

camsnap

Use camsnap to grab snapshots, clips, or motion events from configured cameras.

Setup

  • Config file: ~/.config/camsnap/config.yaml
  • Add camera: camsnap add --name kitchen --host 192.168.0.10 --user user --pass pass

Common commands

  • Discover: camsnap discover --info
  • Snapshot: camsnap snap kitchen --out shot.jpg
  • Clip: camsnap clip kitchen --dur 5s --out clip.mp4
  • Motion watch: camsnap watch kitchen --threshold 0.2 --action '...'
  • Doctor: camsnap doctor --probe

Local webcams (macOS)

  • List devices: camsnap devices
  • Snapshot from a local camera: camsnap snap --device 0 --out webcam.jpg
  • PTZ position and ranges: camsnap ptz status --device 0
  • Move a gimbal camera: camsnap ptz goto --device 0 --pan 45 --tilt -18
  • Also camsnap ptz move (relative deltas) and camsnap ptz home.

Notes

  • Requires ffmpeg on PATH.
  • Prefer a short test capture before longer clips.
  • PTZ needs macOS Camera permission: these cameras only service UVC controls while streaming, so camsnap holds a capture session open for the operation.
  • Motion commands verify the settled position and exit non-zero if the camera did not reach it. On-camera AI framing can override manual positioning; disable tracking if moves keep missing.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
