## What it does

The workflow runs across five phases. It begins by collecting context about the target product and confirming the screenshot files. During the second phase, the command triggers three subagents in parallel using the `Task` tool. One inspects UI layout and visual elements, another maps interactive transitions, and the third extracts domain business logic.

Once the parallel analysis finishes, a synthesizer agent deduplicates the findings and organizes them into a hierarchical structure. A separate reviewer agent then inspects the draft against the original image to catch omitted details.

The final task list is written to `docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-<product>-features.md`. The command requires the `Task` tool enabled in Claude Code, because subagent execution depends on it.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **claude-code-templates**
```bash
npx claude-code-templates@latest --command utilities/screenshot-analyzer
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.claude/commands/screenshot-analyzer.md` — Call it with /screenshot-analyzer. For all projects use ~/.claude/commands/

### Codex

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.codex/prompts/screenshot-analyzer.md` — Call it with /prompts:screenshot-analyzer. Codex marks this format deprecated in favour of skills

### GitHub Copilot

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/prompts/screenshot-analyzer.prompt.md`

### Gemini CLI

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.gemini/commands/screenshot-analyzer.toml` — Gemini stores commands as TOML: the prompt text goes into the prompt field

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/davila7/claude-code-templates/tree/HEAD/cli-tool/components/commands/utilities/screenshot-analyzer.md

## When to use it
- identify visual components and layouts from product screenshots
- extract domain logic and data entities from interface captures
- map user interaction flows and state transitions
- generate a structured markdown backlog of development tasks

## Example prompts
- /screenshot-analyzer ./screenshots/dashboard.png
- /screenshot-analyzer inspect checkout screen from ./assets/cart.png
- /screenshot-analyzer

# Screenshot Analysis Command

This command uses a multi-agent pipeline for comprehensive screenshot analysis.

## Phase 1: Discovery

**Goal**: Understand what screenshots to analyze

Initial request: $ARGUMENTS

**Actions**:
1. If no screenshot path provided, ask user:
   - What screenshots do you want me to analyze?
   - What product/app are these from?
   - Is this for competitive analysis or internal product planning?
2. Read and verify the screenshot files exist
3. Confirm scope with user (single screen, full app, specific feature)

---

## Phase 2: Multi-Agent Analysis

For each screenshot, launch THREE analysis agents IN PARALLEL using Task tool:

### Parallel Agent Calls

Launch all three in a SINGLE message with multiple Task tool calls:

**Task 1: UI Analysis**
- subagent_type: "general-purpose"
- prompt: Include screenshot path, ask for UI components, layout, design patterns analysis in JSON format

**Task 2: Interaction Analysis**
- subagent_type: "general-purpose"
- prompt: Include screenshot path, ask for user flows, clickable elements, state transitions in JSON format

**Task 3: Business Analysis**
- subagent_type: "general-purpose"
- prompt: Include screenshot path, ask for business functions, data entities, domain logic in JSON format

Each agent should:
1. Read the screenshot using the Read tool
2. Analyze according to their specialty
3. Return structured JSON analysis

---

## Phase 3: Synthesis

After parallel analyses complete, launch synthesizer agent:

**Task 4: Synthesis**
- subagent_type: "general-purpose"
- prompt: Provide all three analysis results, ask to combine into unified task list

The synthesizer should:
1. Cross-reference all analyses
2. Deduplicate features
3. Generate hierarchical task list
4. Output markdown format

---

## Phase 4: Review

Launch reviewer agent to validate:

**Task 5: Review**
- subagent_type: "general-purpose"
- prompt: Provide screenshot path and synthesized task list, ask for completeness review

The reviewer should:
1. Compare against original screenshot
2. Check for missing features
3. Validate task quality
4. Suggest corrections if needed

---

## Phase 5: Output

1. Write final task list to `docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-<product>-features.md`
2. Create the docs/plans directory if it doesn't exist
3. Present summary to user with:
   - Total modules identified
   - Total features extracted
   - Total tasks generated
   - Link to output file

---

## Example Parallel Analysis Call

When you reach Phase 2, your response should include THREE Task tool calls like:

```
[Task 1: UI Analysis for screenshot.png]
[Task 2: Interaction Analysis for screenshot.png]
[Task 3: Business Analysis for screenshot.png]
```

All launched simultaneously for maximum efficiency.
