Install Genai Capture in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y genai-capture-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

GenAI Capture

Screen capture + annotation, two ways:

highlighter, mosaic redaction, watermark), then copy / save / pin. Global hotkeys, gallery, themes. Cross-platform (Java).

  • Desktop app — capture the whole desktop, annotate (arrows, shapes, text,

JetBrains IDE: GoLand, PhpStorm, PyCharm, WebStorm, IntelliJ, CLion, Rider, …

  • JetBrains IDE plugin (this repo's source) — the same engine inside any

Download the desktop app

Grab the installer for your OS from Releases:

macOS note: the app isn't notarized yet. If macOS blocks the first launch,

allow it under System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security ▸ "Open Anyway", and grant

Screen Recording permission when asked. Details ship in the DMG's

First Launch.txt.

The plugin is on the JetBrains Marketplace — search for GenAI Capture (or install the zip from Releases by hand).

Use with AI agents (MCP)

The desktop app (v1.2.0+) doubles as an MCP server: AI agents that speak the Model Context Protocol — Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, … — can capture your screen, look at the image, annotate it (arrows, boxes, text, highlight, blur/redact), and save the result. Visual bug reports and before/after proof, driven by one sentence to your AI.

Install the desktop app, then add the server to your client. Easiest (cross-platform, via the genai-capture-mcp launcher on npm):

claude mcp add genai-capture -- npx -y genai-capture-mcp

Or point directly at the installed binary (no Node needed):

claude mcp add genai-capture -- \
  "/Applications/GenAI Capture.app/Contents/MacOS/GenAI Capture" --mcp

Tools: capturefullscreen, captureregion, annotate, getimage, saveimage. Captures play an audible cue; everything runs locally — images only go to the AI client you connected.

JetBrains IDE plugin

Brings the screenshot capture + annotation engine inside any JetBrains IDE (GoLand, PhpStorm, PyCharm, WebStorm, IntelliJ, CLion, Rider, …).

Features

Captures the whole desktop (IDE included) and opens the annotation overlay.

  • Tools ▸ Take Screenshot — ⌘⇧1 (macOS) / Ctrl+Shift+1 (Win/Linux).

Temporarily hides the IDE, captures the desktop behind it, and keeps the IDE hidden until you dismiss the overlay (ESC / save / copy / pin / close).

  • Tools ▸ Capture Desktop (Hide IDE) — ⌘⇧2 / Ctrl+Shift+2.

countdown, then captures (time to switch windows or open a menu first).

  • Tools ▸ Take Delayed Screenshot ▸ 3s / 5s / 10s — shows an on-screen

  • Status-bar buttons — a camera icon (immediate capture) and a monitor icon

watermark, with copy / save / pin.

  • Annotation overlay — arrows, shapes, text, highlighter, mosaic redaction,

text, behaviour, live preview) and a Toolbar page (choose/reorder the tools on the capture toolbar). All shortcuts are rebindable in Settings ▸ Keymap.

  • Settings ▸ Tools ▸ GenAI Capture — a Watermark page (appearance, default

On macOS, grant the IDE Screen Recording permission (System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security ▸ Screen Recording) or the capture comes back black — same requirement as any screen-capture tool.
