name: yas-pr-screenshots description: Generate before/after PNG screenshots for a YAS branch's rendering changes, push them to the yas-pr-screenshots repo, and hand back a markdown before/after table for the PR description. Use when the user wants real image screenshots (not ANSI-stripped text) attached to a YAS pull request, or asks to shoot/capture before-after statusline screenshots for a branch.
Render the statusline on `main` ("before") and on the current branch ("after") as deterministic PNGs, publish them to the public `tmck-code/yas-pr-screenshots` repo, and emit a markdown table that another worker (e.g. the **yas-pr** skill or a `gh pr edit`) drops into the PR body. PNGs come from `DEMO_ONLY=<scenario> make demo/img` (via `ops/ansi_png.py` — needs ImageMagick `magick` + a Mono Nerd Font).
1. **Resolve `<pr_id>`.** If the current branch already has a PR, use its number (`gh pr view --json number -q .number`). Otherwise predict the next one: `gh pr list --state all --limit 1 --json number -q '.[0].number'` **+ 1**.
2. **Locate the screenshots checkout.** Use `$YAS_PR_SCREENSHOTS_DIR` if set, else a sibling `../yas-pr-screenshots`, else clone `git@github.com:tmck-code/yas-pr-screenshots.git`. Ensure it's on `main` and clean (`git -C <dir> pull --ff-only`). `*.png` is LFS-tracked there.
3. **Pick variants.** Always shoot `kitchen-sink`. Then read `git diff --stat main...HEAD` (and the diff) and add the variants most relevant to what changed — map area → variant:
| Branch touches | Add variant `LABEL:SCENARIO:ENV` | |---|---| | subagents / openspec / tasks / workflows | `subagents:subagents:` · `openspec:openspec:` · `tasks:tasks:` · `workflows:workflows:` | | context fill / soft limit / token window | `full-context:full-context:` (or `YAS_SOFT_LIMIT=`) | | config parsing / errors | `config-error:config-error:` | | narrow width / truncation | `narrow:kitchen-sink:YAS_MAX_WIDTH=40` | | full width | `full-width:kitchen-sink:YAS_FULL_WIDTH=1` | | justify / labels | `justify:kitchen-sink:YAS_JUSTIFY=1` · `labels:kitchen-sink:YAS_LABELS=1` | | theme / gradient / colour | `theme-<name>:kitchen-sink:YAS_THEME=<name>` | | glyph mode | `github:kitchen-sink:YAS_GLYPH_MODE=github` | | model / thinking | `opus-thinking:opus-thinking:` · `sonnet-thinking:sonnet-thinking:` |
Use the same ENV on both sides so the diff is purely the content change. Scenario names: `ops/demo.py` `SCENARIOS` (kitchen-sink, tasks, openspec, subagents, workflows, full-context, config-error, sonnet-thinking, opus-thinking, …).
4. **Render + stage.** From the YAS repo root run the helper with the chosen variants:
.claude/skills/yas-pr-screenshots/scripts/shoot.sh <pr_id> <screenshots_dir> \
'kitchen-sink:kitchen-sink:' 'narrow:kitchen-sink:YAS_MAX_WIDTH=40' 'subagents:subagents:'For each variant it renders after (current tree) and before (a throwaway `main` worktree), then combines the pair into ONE wide PNG — before and after side by side, each half topped by a small "before" / "after" heading, joined by a visible vertical separator strip (ImageMagick `magick`, deterministic). The combined image lands at `screenshots/<pr_id>/<label>.png` (the raw halves are also kept under `screenshots/<pr_id>/{before,after}/` for reference, but the table embeds only the combined image). It prints the markdown table to stdout: a blank-headed left column holding the variant label, one row per variant. A before render that fails (scenario new to the branch) yields a "(not on main)" placeholder left half instead of aborting.
| | before / after | |--|----------------| | <label> |  |
When the change is theme-wide, use the same scenario (usually `kitchen-sink`) across all rows and vary only `YAS_THEME`, labelling each row with the theme name.
5. **Commit + push** (outward-facing — confirm with the user first):
git -C <dir> add screenshots/<pr_id> git -C <dir> commit -m "screenshots: PR #<pr_id> before/after (<branch>)" git -C <dir> push origin main
6. **Hand off the table.** Output the table from step 4 verbatim as the final result so the PR-authoring worker can paste it into the **Screenshots / recording** section. Do **not** edit the PR body yourself — that's the next worker's job.
`?raw=true` blob form resolves LFS pointers correctly where `raw.githubusercontent.com` doesn't.
