Capturing Screenshots and Screenrecord

About this skill

Use this skill to capture visual artefacts from a device for test failures, golden image generation, QA repro, and demo videos. Covers adb shell screencap -p (PNG screenshot), adb exec-out screencap -p > out.png (binary-clean stream that avoids CRLF translation on Windows), adb shell screenrecord with --size, --bit-rate, --time-limit, --rotate, --bugreport, --verbose flags, the 3-minute hard cap, scoped-storage rules for /sdcard/ on API 30+, and the JUnit4 TestWatcher capture-on-failure pattern that grabs a screencap plus logcat -d on failure. If the user mentions "screenshot device", "screencap PNG", "raw RGBA dump", "screenrecord 3 minute limit", "scrcpy / Vysor streaming", "exec-out vs shell", or "bugreport overlay timestamp", use this skill.
