upload-screenshot
Use this skill when you already have an image file on disk and need to upload it to the Open-Inspect
session. The image may be a screenshot captured by Playwright MCP or agent-browser, a generated
chart or diagram, a manual file, or output from another tool.
For the full browser-open + capture + upload workflow, use visual-verification instead.
Key Fact
upload-media is a bash command installed on PATH. Run it with your Bash tool. It is not an MCP
tool or a tool binding.
When To Use It
- Upload a screenshot that was already captured (e.g. via Playwright MCP)
- Upload a generated chart, graph, diagram, or other review image
- Upload an image file the user points you to
- The user says "upload the screenshot", "upload this image", or asks for an image they can review
Required Workflow
- Confirm the image file exists on disk.
- Run
upload-media via Bash with the file path and metadata flags.
- Report the returned
artifactId to the user.
Command
upload-media <file-path> \
--caption "Description of screenshot" \
--source-url "https://example.com" \
[--full-page] \
[--annotated] \
[--viewport '{"width":1512,"height":982}']
All flags except the file path are optional. Include whichever metadata you know:
--caption — what the screenshot shows
--source-url — the URL that was captured
--full-page — set if the screenshot is a full-page capture
--annotated — set if the screenshot has annotations
--viewport — JSON object with width and height of the viewport used
For generated images that do not depict a browser page, omit browser-specific flags such as
--source-url, --full-page, and --viewport.
Supported File Types
.png, .jpg / .jpeg, .webp
Success Criteria
The task is not complete until:
upload-media returned a JSON response containing an artifactId.
- The
artifactId is reported to the user.
- The response states what was uploaded and the source URL (if known).
Example
Uploaded screenshot of the homepage.
Source: https://example.com
Uploaded artifact: abc123def456
Generated chart:
upload-media /tmp/revenue-chart.png \
--caption "Monthly recurring revenue by quarter"
Guardrails
- Do not claim the image was uploaded unless
upload-media returned an artifact ID.
- Writing an image into the repository does not make it available for review. Run
upload-media
whenever the user asks for a generated image or chart they can review.
- If the file does not exist or is not a supported type, report the error instead of retrying
silently.
- If the user needs a full browser workflow (open page, set viewport, capture, upload), delegate to
visual-verification instead.
