| description | Use this skill for service operations only. DO NOT use this skill for CLI implementation lifecycle work such as creating, testing, updating, troubleshooting, validating, removing, or documenting the CLI tool itself; delegate those tasks to cli-tool-expert. Execute snagit operations using the `snagit` CLI tool. CLI for managing Snagit capture files (.snagx format) -- list, view, and export captures. Triggers: snagit, snagit cli, snagit captures, snagit screenshots, export snagit, view snagit capture, list snagit files, snagx files, snagit images |
Execute snagit operations using the `snagit` CLI. All snagit interactions should use this CLI.
<quick_start>
The snagit CLI follows this pattern:
snagit capture <action> [arguments] [options]
| Task | Command |
|---|
| List all captures | snagit capture list --table |
| List from custom folder | snagit capture list --path ~/Pictures/Snagit/Archive |
| View a capture image | snagit capture view capture.snagx |
| Export PNG from capture | snagit capture export capture.snagx |
| Export to specific path | snagit capture export capture.snagx -o ~/Desktop/image.png |
| </quick_start> | |

MANDATORY: Consult the adjacent usage.json at <cli-tools-root>/_repo/skills/<tool>-cli/usage.json before executing ANY snagit command.
This file contains complete command syntax, all arguments, all options, and usage instructions for every command. Never guess at command syntax.
- **capture** — Manage .snagx capture files: list captures, view extracted images, export PNGs
